Way to go, Ms. Jacobsen!

thanks to Ms. Jacobsen who was writing so much about how we ought to be racially profiling on airplanes:

Air marshals' only tactical advantage on a flight is their anonymity, the source said, and Jacobsen could have put the entire flight in danger. (Quoted at Snopes: Sky Terror)

Bra-frackin-va, lady.

She wants Big Brother to crack down on all the brown people so she can feel safe. Feh!

I think she needs to be put on the No-Fly list. If she's potentially a danger to the anonymity of the Air Marshals, make her take some other sort of transport. A Greyhound bus would seem to be appropriate.

I was rather thinking that I'd prefer flying with "The Syrian Wayne Newton" and his entourage rather than with Madame OverReaction Because She's Afraid of the Dark People.

She sees Dark People . . . They're EVERYWHERE!

(Whereas the rest of us are seeing a bunch of DUMB people who make our lives a lot more annoying and less free all the time.)

It's one thing to be vigilant. After all, it IS the price of freedom. But that doesn't mean being paranoid and it sure as hell doesn't mean taking away the freedoms of others.

Sacrifice freedom for security and you get neither, to paraphrase Ben Franklin.

This bint is, IMO, pretty much a major reason why the Japanese were interned during WWII.

Ptui.
