      Got this in my InBox If it offends anyone, TOUGH!


      To ensure we Americans never offend anyone, particularly fanatics intent on killing us, airport screeners are not allowed to profile people. They will, however, continue to perform random searches of 80-year-old women, little kids, airline pilots with proper identification, Secret Service agents who are members of the President's security detail, and 85-year old Congressmen with metal hips. Let's pause a moment and take the following test... In 1972, 11 Israeli athletes were killed at the Munich Olympics by: a) Your Grandmother; b) The night cleaning crew at Rockefeller Center; (c) A Mom & her 6 year old son visiting from Iowa; or (d) Muslim male extremists mostly between the ages of 17 and 40. In 1979, the U.S. embassy in Iran was taken over by: (a) Norwegians from the Lichen Herbarium of the University of Oslo; (b) The Dallas Cowboy cheerleaders; (c) A tour bus full of 80-year-old women; or (d) Muslim male extremists mostly between the ages of 17 and 40. In 1983, the U.S. Marine barracks in Beirut was blown up by: (a) A pizza delivery boy; (b) A woman who was 8 months pregnant; (c) Geraldo Rivera making up for a slow news day; or (d) Muslim male extremists mostly between the ages of 17 and 40. In 1988, Pan Am Flight 103 was bombed by: (a) A college girl; (b) A businessman on his way to Detroit; (c) Butch and Sundance, who had a few sticks of dynamite left over from their train mission; or, (d) Muslim male extremists mostly between the ages of 17 and 40. In 1993, the World Trade Center was bombed by: (a) The cast of "Cats"; (b) Martha Stewart; (c) Cheese-crazed tourists from Wisconsin; or (d) Muslim male extremists mostly between the ages of 17 and 40. In 1998, the U.S. embassies in Kenya and Tanzania a were bombed by: (a) Mr. Rogers; (b) Hillary, to distract attention from Wild Bill's women problems; (c) A family on their way to Disneyworld; or (d) Muslim male extremists mostly between the ages of 17 and 40. On 9/11/01, four airliners were hijacked and destroyed by: (a) Bugs Bunny, Wil E. Coyote, Daffy Duck, and Elmer Fudd. (b) A firefighter, (c) A doctor traveling to a conference; or (d) Muslim male extremists mostly between the ages of 17 and 40. Yep.

      Anyone could smuggle a weapon aboard a plane under duress. So it makes sense to search everybody.

            **He's not implying anything; he's stating it outright. So do you think all terrorist "Muslim male extremists mostly between the ages of 17 and 40." What about the few who would be prepared to become women, or dress as tham, or some of the Budhist, Sikh, and Christian Terrorist groups. Regardz Colin J Davies

                  Especially those eighty year old ladies. They know they're going to die soon anyway, so why not take some people with them when they go. Besides, if they kill some infidel dogs, aren't there 13 buff lifeguards waiting in the afterlife to pleasure them?

                      It's not pro-american. It's more anti-muslim extremist. Nobody likes extremists. "Somedays I really wish someone would write a mass e-mail worm that quite simply, if executed, ejected the user's pod from the Matrix once and for all..." -David Wulff, The Lounge

                            Or the fact that young Palestinian women are now carrying out suicide bombings in Isreal... I think a pertinant point here is that 9 of the Sep 11 hijackers were found to be carrying knives in random checks yet were still allowed to carry them onboard. cheers, Chris Maunder

                              Thanks for the sarcasm. What if terrorists threaten to kill the great grand child of an eight year old lady if she doesn't smuggle a weapon and give it to a terriost inside the plane? What if her grand child is already kidnapped? What if a child is enticed to carry a box cutter? Anything could happen. Who could forsee hijackers going suicidal? Maybe it isn't a bad idea to anticipate what might happen and prepare for it!

                                  Or the fact that young Palestinian women are now carrying out suicide bombings in Isreal... I think a pertinant point here is that 9 of the Sep 11 hijackers were found to be carrying knives in random checks yet were still allowed to carry them onboard. cheers, Chris Maunder

                                      I've always carried a knife with me, travelling or not, and it's a helluva lot more dangerous than a box cutter. I can't help but wonder why no one on even a lightly loaded plane didn't have the chutzpah to slap the goons with a fire extinguisher. "What is it?" and he said, "I don't know. Let's kill it." - Ed Gadziemski

Roger, I think similar, When youger have a knife or gun pointed at me didn't really scare me Now I have the responsibilities of family I don't consider it wise. And I most certainly unarmed am not scared of most people with a knife due to my size, reach and ability. C'mon Boxcutter wounds are nice and straight and heal fast !! But on a flight like that, I would consider what the safest alternative was for all the other passengers as well. And I doubt the passengers imagined what was planned as suicide missions. Apart from the plane that crashed in the field that is. Regardz Colin J Davies

Oh Yes, but our creativity probably comes from our frontier type existance where we don't have industry and markets close so we must be self reliant. The US was similar at one stage, now that you are developed creativity has taken a backbench to marketing. Regardz Colin J Davies
