Some Americans have become so insulated from reality that they imagine America can suffer defeats without any inconvenience to themselves..
Absolutely No Profiling! Pause a moment, reflect back, and take the following multiple choice test.
These events are actual events from history. They really happened! Do you remember?

a. You guessed it - A Muslim male extremist between the ages of 17 and 40.
15. Again in 2009: A man tried to blow up an airliner landing in Detroit by lighting off a chemical bomb. Over 200 innocent people were on that plane.
Again, a Muslim male extremist between the ages of 17 and 40.
Does anyone see a pattern ?
One that justifies profiling? Do you? So, to ensure we Americans never offend anyone, particularly fanatics intent on killing us, airport security screeners (TSA) are no
longer allowed to profile certain people. They must conduct random searches of 80-year-old women, people in wheel-chairs, 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, and Medal of Honor winner and former
Governor Joe Foss, but leave Muslim Males between the ages 17 and 40 alone lest they be guilty of profiling.
As the writer of the award winning story 'Forrest Gump' so aptly put it, 'Stupid is as stupid does'.
The things that make you go hmmmmmmmm.
