See, the thing is, the Arabs and Indians do. My roomate is Indian, and we have great and detailed 'discussions' on the subject quite frequently. The fact of the matter is, we have people like the Unabomber and Timothy McVeigh that ruin the profile. Personally, I think we should stop all suspicious looking people, as well as all Arabs. It has worked thus far? I don't know of any other acts of Airplane terrorism. If I want to have a crazy grin glued to my face along with a four-foot, wild-man beard I'll stop for them to. And I certainly don't have anything in my suitcase that I mind them seeing. (I'm white and I've been searched every time I've ever flown. (Including at Pulkovo))
