2. says his son in law, as well as lots of his ME constituents, are all
in favor of profiling, even if it leads to "fatal mistakes", as the hostette called them

said that's the price you have to pay

I can only hope he gets accosted at the earliest opportunity

3. I cannot believe this
Islam is a RELIGION, not a RACE. Ever hear of John Williams or Juan Padilla? Were they Middle Easterners?

Even putting aside religion, how do they propose to tell an Arab from a Hispanic (Brazilian?) from a Greek from a Jew from an Italian, etc., etc.? Has this man even been on a NYC subway? I challenge him to single out what the race of millions of people are.

Or maybe we will look to what was done in the past? Little Crescent Moon patches, maybe. Ah, better not give them any ideas.
