Laugh away, but if you think people go ape shit when we threaten their guns, imagine if we threatened their homes.

@wuf: sure, profiling can be good. But you gotta make sure it's actually useful and not needless discrimination. Pulling every black person over and searching them just because there are lots of black people in prison is not effective profiling. However, keeping track of people who have friends/family in known terrorist groups is. Watching out for gang members is.

I know what's coming. "Look at their holy book, these guys are crazy wackjobs". No. Some are, yes. But that's how non Christians see the WBC. There are people who take religious views to absurd extremes, but that does not represent the whole. I read somewhere that 90% of American muslims strongly believe in women's rights, and support them getting careers and education and not wearing their hijab (or whatever it's called).

Should we vet ppl coming in? Of course. And we do.
