since the latest terror plots on planes in the uk, the goverment has released new laws that any person (in particular any person of asian decent), can be pulled out of a waiting que at a airport and searched. i think thats crazy, the other day a family got taken off the london eye for speaking arabic!!! if its gonna be like that why isnt every irish person considered part of the IRA and so on!

what are your opinions on this profiling and is somthing like this happening where u live?

Well...In some ways you can't profile a terrorist, because once you start checking Arabs or Asian men then a pregnant white lady blows up a plane. And In Russia terrorists aren't arab or black they're white. Imagine that.

Now when theres a certain threat like say the Brittish goverment knows something that we don't about the recent terror plot then yeah anyone and everyone matching the profile should be searched. Fuck your civil liberties when thousands of lives are on the line and maybe even yours.

Right after 9/11 I had to fly to Detriot, They made me, a pretty normal looking white guy take off my boots/pull my jeans up so they could see my shins and feet, completely empty everything out of my carry on and I was frisked. Was it too much? Nope because EVERYONE was having the same thing done to them. When you look at it that way it's not so bad, they aren't just picking on YOU. They just want to make sure everyone is safe.

And the IRA isn't actively trying to blow the shit out of London anymore, Muslim terrorists are actively trying to blow the shit out of everything western.
