So would be okay for them to profile based on race or political beliefs then?

Isn't there another entire thread about the badness of profiling ?
Is this resolution to profiling or surrender to profiling now part of US travel ?

Targeting all passengers coming from the 14 counties on the list is not the same thing as profiling. If a blue eyed blond comes in from one of those countries he/she will get the same pat down as a black haired, darker skinned person gets---young, old, male or female.

I happen to think it is about time, but what about those concerned about this sort of thing. Once again Obama takes the left for granted. I am sure they will be good soldiers and keep their yaps shut.
Ahhh, classifying terror states. I thought maybe obama called the officers of another police department stupid.
