Brits in favour of profiling
A MAJORITY of voters support moves by the Government to introduce security screening at airports that focuses on the passengers who pose the greatest risk. 55% support passenger profiling, poll indicates by Andrew Pierce
But they haven't been, Quisabelle. Not at all. I have experienced problems in airports, JudahQ has too (see her recent post), as has Emily (see her recent post, too), and many, many others bedides. I remember a security guard getting quite shirty with me in the States when he was giving me a hard time, because I asked why he was being so 'thorough' with me when I was so obviousy not a Middle Easterner and so obviously not a Muslim. "We treat everybody the same", came the curt reply.

This is about common sense seriously. Why should Grandma Collins be patted down if she poses zero risk?
Quisabelle:
Profiling? What a joke.
Are we to assume from this comment that you are against profiling? Or do you mean that the government won't have the spunk to carry it out?
