We have terrorists within the US already, who are AMERICAN. Who, furthermore, are CAUCASIAN AMERICAN, who have no problems using the same tatics that the Islamic terrorists use...They've already taken down goverment buildings, so who's to say that taking a plane wouldn't be on their agenda? Because they have the same hate of our goverment and citizens that the other world terrorist organizations.

The security check points aren't to deter just one group of terrorists, but ALL TERROIST GROUPS. That includes our own homegrown terrorists organizations as well as those abroad...And it failed miserably because someone was either profiling as you are doing here, or just simply wasn't doing their job period. Afterall, they'll use the excuse 'but he didn't look like a terrorist' and we can all take it from there eh?

Geezes...
