How will the color coding scheme work?

(snip) Can you imagine yourself being an American of Middle East decent, maybe even born in this country, Muslim, law abiding, abhor the 9/11 terrorist act just like the rest of us do and getting special treatment every where you go? I know you are going to say you are not and you don't give a sh*t how they feel. (snip) Why are you assuming racial profiling. History... Manzanar, Warsaw Ghetto, gassing, slavery, aparheid What the system will look for is something linking a person to a known terrorist group or someone on a watch list. Yeah, like my credit history or what library books I have checked out. Am I going to regret checking our Mein Kampf in high school? They might even want to look at my Netflix account. |

After all, big brother needs to know who the ones "outside the box" are. And colored yellow too. Chinese, othe other hand, will be handed a big five point red star. Japanese will be given a patch with a red ball, etc... But realistically, if there is such a scheme, it invariably boils down to race. Or how you look to the security personnel. Sad to say in this post 9/11 day and age people of Arabic decent will suffer. And so do all those from muslim and borderline muslim countries. Because they will be judged by a different set of criteria for sucurity purposes. This is true but then again, white Christians generally tend to not be Al Qieda (however you spell that **** group's name) members. Bin Laden doesn't seem to want Jews either. Let's see, who flew planes into buildings and the ground? Not orientals, not black people, not above mentioned whites.... that leaves Arab Muslims doesn't it? Now if you're looking for likely terrorists by religion, whom do you look to? Not Buhdists, Hindus, (the list goes on to the obvious) etc. That leaves Muslims. We use logic and again we come to Arab Muslims as the most like to do something sick don't we? Remember how they were dancing in the streets 9/11 in the middle East? That took any last symphany I had for any of em totally away. Once again, sorry but those are facts as well as my personal feelings. Defend them if you will, I certainly won't Has anyone forgotten the Japanese internment camps during WWII? Or the recent racial profiling by NJ State Troopers? How is that relavent to what's going on today? No one here has been interred. As to profiling, who the **** would you look at? If the shoe fits... Let's keep the subject matter to air travel... Color coding is the subject and it is a "matter" pertaining to air travel. Safety is an issue for all of us and again, who was it who killed all of the air travels (among all of the others) on 9/11? Any air traveler should be prepared to rush any future high jacker and give up their life to save others if necessary. We can no longer be passive travelers. Yankee Bob Flush Bush in 2004 Then again color coding needs to be expanded. Local bombers tend to be evangelical christians so they need identification as well. Can we let them fly all over bombing here and there when they land? FFM |
