Subject: RE: BS: Arguments against racial profiling
Remember the original reports on the Oklahoma City bombings? - everyone was sure it was done by Arab terrorists, and it turned out to be done by ultra-American Good Ole Boys. Terrorists come in all shapes and sizes.

I do admit that I was perturbed when they gave me and my daughter the deluxe-model search when we cqam back from San Diego on one-way tickets - she was on her way home after falling down three stories, and she was in a wheelchair had metal pins screwed into her forearm with an external metal bar tying them together. It was obvious that she was an invalid and in pain, but they made her go through the whole search.
