there has been mature adult discussion on this board about race in the past. you just aren't equipped to contribute.
And the only thing you ever contribute to those threads are assinine comments that have no substance.

That is the topic of the thread...moreso....racial profiling in the US post 9/11


If you read thru all of page four, you would see that I am correct...you all are talking about Israel vs Palestine = not on the topic as indicated by the title of the post.


...nice try at the snark

You may realize that this happens a lot.

By all means, jump back in with an on topic post.

Sure the person who threatens to might look like any of us. How about the people who have actually blown up passenger jets in the last 50 years? What have they looked like? Are there a couple of IRA guys in the mix maybe? Why don't you dig up the data?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of...aft_hijackings

It still wouldn't mean much in terms of how we ought to treat the non-plane blowing up passengers.

And exactly how often does this happen?


How often have planes blown up in the past 50 years?

For that matter, can you say what is the ratio of actual bomb threats and racial makeup of those who are perceived as actually going thru with said threat?

I wouldn't be too surprised to find out that the majority of people who attempt bomb scares are our own non minority US citizens

and BTW...we are talking US hijackings....nice wikipedia source (not 100% reliable mind you) and I am going off the assumption you were talking about actually BLOWN UP planes.

So let's get this straight are you referring to actual BLOWN UP planes or simple hijackings...make it clear.

ETA: Furthermore, after looking over your wiki link hmmm we have

Lebanese, Egyptian, US citizens, Chinese, Indian, Ethiopian, Iranian, Filipino, Sri Lankan, Croatian, Cuban, German, Japanese and so on...

You know what that says, anybody can be a hijacker...
