Nope, I really don't see a pattern here to justify profiling, do you?

So, to ensure you Americans never offend anyone, particularly fanatics
intent on killing us, airport security screeners will no longer be
allowed to profile certain people. They must conduct random searches of
80-year-old women, little kids, airline pilots with proper identification,
Secret Service agents who are members of the President's security detail,
85-year old Congressmen with metal hips, and Medal of Honor winning former
Governors.

Let's send this to as many people as we can so that the Gloria Aldreds
and other dunder headed attorneys along with Federal Justices that want
to thwart common sense feel doubly ashamed of themselves. As the writer
of the award winning story Forest Gump so aptly put it, "Stupid is as
stupid does!"
