Since we have to keep a lookout for "suspicious" individuals of someone who "looks" like a terrorist, I wonder how many people who look like Timothy McVeigh have been "detained" and questioned? Or is it just people with "arabic" looks...

I am to Mr. Mustard!

I have a sister Pam works in a shop
She never stops, she's a go-getter
Takes me out to look at the queen
Only place that I've ever been
I alway shout out something obscene...

I just look like the othere guy...

but I do have friends in low places

Discrimination is terrible. If anyone looks Arab people have been told to call authorities. My husband and I got the police called on us when we sat outside a grocery store for 10 minutes trying to discuss what to buy. Some elderly lady told the police a man and a woman with "the clothes on her head" were talking in a car and looked like they were "up to no good". We were trying to decide what we were going to eat for dinner. The police were nice, but the general public is terrified by what the media tell them about Muslim and Arab people. I'm a Muslim woman, so I'm very easily identified as Muslim because I wear hijab, and sometime people are just plain rude to me. It's sad.

You know what this is a question that a lot of thought should be given to. Until now, that you mentioned this, I've always just looked at people with Arabic looks. I say shame on me, and I truly say that I apologize for that. Never thought of giving a white man a second look. Now I know better. Thank you for opening my eyes and my way of thinking.

Timothy McVeigh was a mass murder and sociopath. When ALL of the 9/11 terrorists are Arabic...it kind of makes sense to be suspicious of Arabs.

Suspicious individuals means someone who probably has no business in an area, not what he looks like. If he doesn't live in the apartment complex, and he's driving around looking at cars, he is suspicious. Even if he looks like the Pope. Nice try on playing a race card though.

Anyone with Arabic looks SHOULD be looked at suspiciously. Who cares about being politically correct and all that liberal nonsense. We're talking about security from a group of people who have nothing better to do than blow themselves up in public.

You're not Mr. Mustard. That looks more like Amerigo Bonasera from ' The Godfather '. The undertaker. ( Business is always good, huh? )

Are you kidding....Does he McVeigh} look like John Q. Citizen going about his daily duty? If YOU were on "terrorist watch", you wouldn't have tightened up your watch... You have to be kidding....


AND...If you look at all the proven Terrorists in the world, aren't the OVERWHELMING majority as you discribed..So THEY ARE the ones to be watched.. Common sense and prudence DICTATES IT

Would you go to Wall Street and expect to see a lot of green grass................................

Good point. Actually, I believe you have to be moderately dark-skinned and wearing a t-shirt that says "we will not be silent" or something like that in order to attract the airport rent-a-cops' attention.
