    How often would it stop terrorist attacks for each person stopped? We are talking about saving lives versus saving people from being offended correct?

      The TSA can’t even prevent weapons from going through security checkpoints, and they have real equipment and guidelines for their security checks and still fail to find contraband over 80-90% of the time when they do internal audits of TSA security checkpoints.

      The TSA is a joke as is, and we don’t need them to chase after a ghost problem when they can’t even figure out the real problems they’re supposed to be worrying about.

      You’re talking about formalising the concept of treating an entire demographic of people as 2nd class citizens who experience additional social barriers that others do not have to.

      “I racially profiled every Mohammed in the US and 128,000 improper searches and surveillances down the list I discovered a terrorist. Mission accomplished.”
