Nope, ..I really don't see a pattern here to justify
profiling, do you? So, to ensure we Americans never
offend anyone, particularly fanatics intent on killing
us, airport security screeners will no longer be
allowed to profile certain people. They must conduct
random searches of 80-year-old women, little kids,
airline pilots with proper identification, secret
agents who are members of the President's security
detail, 85-year old Congressmen with metal hips,
Medal of Honor winning and former Governor Joe Foss, and former vice-president Al Gore, but leave Muslim Males between the ages 17 and 40
alone lest they be guilty of profiling.

Surely, behind the scenes, ever so covertly, so as to keep the PC nazis in the dark, authorities in key positions must be conducting terrorist profiles. We can only hope!
