So, what would you do? When the enemy is 99.9999999% (no that's not a
verifiable number, but you get the point) young middle eastern men,


The thread (my fault, mostly) is going way beyond the original scope of the
original post,,, so this is the last nugget I'll share on this.

Why do we have such short memories when it comes to U.S. History,,,, some
of the older members of our group might be able to recall the movement of
U.S. citizens who happened to be Japanese sent to interment camps though
they had violated no law and not been tried or convicted of any treason -
but simply had different eyes than the white folk that tossed them into
interment camps during the war with Japan. These people lost homes and
property and endured unjust detainment.

I'm just saying,,, innocent until proven guilty,,,, investigations using due
process of law - searches with writs/warrants.

Benjamin Franklin said it best: "Those that would trade essential liberty
for a little temporary security... deserver neither!"

And the tag line of that Pledge of Allegiance ....... and justice for
ALL....
