Hi Dennis. While on this topic of PC. I would like to bring up something that seems to me to be the height of stupidity. Over the last couple of weeks on many different
talk shows I have heard people of many races saying that it is wrong to target or suspect people just because of the way they look. It has been proven that the terrorist are mid east looking but because we must be politically correct we risk being sued if they are questioned because they look Arab. So security or immigration people at borders, airports etc. can only stop and question people who don't look Arab. That's kind of like saying its wrong to stop speeders on the hi-ways just because they appear to be speeders.
I think anyone at borders, airports etc.who look as though they come from countries that may support terrorist
should be stopped and questioned and if they are clean they should be sent on their way with apology for taking up their time.
