RT,
I know that what you are saying isn't the same as internment camps but the idea is the same...as you said,'both as a precaution and a deterant'. These are the same reasons for the internment camps. I also realize that you posted this in good fun but at the same time I have to agree with what DJ had to say. As far as your duck story is concerned, it's all good and fine as long as ALL the ducks get checked. And this is what I have an issue with. And FirmaL, I do't have a problem of getting searched as long as everyone else has to go thru the same thing. Please don't have sommeone searched just because of their color. Look, I'm a minority (Not middle Eastern) and know what it feels like to be singled out. It especially hurts when I know I'm as innocent as the next person. Trust me, it's not a very good feeling. This might be hard to believe but it's already hard enough being a minority in this country. I've had to grow up with the bigotry all my life....and why? Because I don't look caucasian. I realize that 99.99999999999% of caucasian are good people, people I would stand up for. What you have to realize is that 99.9999999999% of Middle Easterners are good people as well.
