For me it really has nothing with being a bigot per se, it just ,meams your gullible to propaganda.
How many of the 9/11 hijackers were dressed in "muslim garb"?
Zero.
How many actual terrorists will a) actual wear identifiable garb onto an airplane and b) how many that fit the profile wearing such outfits will get through security with minimal scrutiny?
a) Zero
b) ZeroIt's all smoke and mirrors. As much as there is so much fucking useless security theater surrounding our air transport systems - take off your shoes, bark like a dog if the asshole in the TSA uniform says so, etc. - which does actually nothing to stop terrorism or where the actual terrorist threat would be coming from - the system has become more secure and secondly, their is probably a slim chance of any terrorist organization seeking to repeat a 9/11 style event in the same manner.
So congratulations, if you're spooked on an airplane because probably a family of Sikhs got on the plane and you're freaking out because they're wearing turbans - it means you've swallowed the fear mindset spoon fed to you by Fox, the rest of the US media and whatever factions of the elites that want to keep you scared and in control.
It's probably far more likely that your plane would blow up in mid air with a planted bomb through an inside man, or being shot down by an handheld anti-aircraft missile on takeoff/landing then you having to face down a group of men dressed in "obvious middle eastern garb" on your airplane.
Juan WIlliams is just another shallow thinking pundit who wouldn't know his ass from his elbow, refuses to think for himself and look at reality.
Typical modern American civilization bullshit - fear shit that has actually little way of actually harming you, yet the real shit is pushed under a carpet because someone is making huge profits from it and pushing any external costs onto the back of the hoi polloi. And god forbid you raise that issue, because you're immediately called a "socilaist!! Commie!!"
- doesn't have to be muslim garb. i'd be nervous if it was 6 swarthy looking arabs.BusterBoy
- btw, i completely agree with youBusterBoy
- I think 6 swarthy looking arabs in a group would get anal cavity searches...TheBlueOne
