Personally, I think that objecting to the special scrutiny of Arabic people by security people as "discriminatory" ignores the fact that the people who attacked our country on 9/11 and then rejoiced about it afterward, were mostly Arabs. People in the muslim countries have continued to call for the death of Americans and to threaten us.

I don't think all muslims are bad, but here's an analogy for you. If I were a fish, and a member of a fish security force, I would concentrate my efforts on the guys in the boat with the fishing poles. I'd leave the surfers alone.
