I have had enough being slaves to the Muslim terrorists because our society has become so wimpy it would rather let another attack happen than violate the Doctrine of Political Correctness, which states that we can't focus our security efforts on young Middle Eastern men because that offends the "non-violent" Muslims. Well I say, if being lumped in with these Islamic terrorists offends them so much, then they should make their fellow Muslims stop trying to kill us! The only time you hear from our "moderate" Muslim voice, CAIR, is when a Muslim tries to blow us up. They are quick to condemn Americans for "rushing to judgment" but don't condemn the attack itself with anything more than lukewarm criticism. They want the profiling to stop? Make the Islamic terrorism stop.
No, instead of offending the Muslims of the world, we have to inconvenience every American who flies, by subjecting them to more intrusive airport scrutiny and more and more IDIOTIC rules about carry ons. I'm tired of having my stuff stolen at the airport security line because the government bureaucracy cannot apply common sense to their jobs. They are not allowed to! Rules are rules, and in the bizarro-world that is our government today, it is more important to show the world we don't discriminate against any Muslim than to allow our citizens to go about their business without being subjected to long delays and lost productivity. Flying has gone from being an inconvenience to an experience akin to a root canal with no novacain.
Rather than simply respond to terror attacks by adding more inane rules to an already burdensome TSA handbook, why doesn't the US government start being proactive in actually protecting us? Instead of confiscating our toothpaste and unopened cans of Coke, they let a REAL terrorist get on the damn plane!
It was only due to the bomber's own ineptness that there was not a tragic end to the story. All the rules in place didn't keep those passengers safe - alert passengers did.
