King: Profiling Muslims Makes Sense Because 'If You Were Going After The Mafia, You'd Go Into Italian Communities' (VIDEO)

Idiot. Do you have any idea how many Muslims there are? Even if it were not illegal and immoral to profile people based on their religion, it is also stupid and ineffective. To fight terrorism, you focus on finding terrorists, not on finding people that are in some category that you've decided is a proxy for being a terrorist.

There is no magic switch. You fight terrorism the same way you fight any other form of organized crime. The careful and legal gathering of information and intelligence is what gets the job done, not freaking out and deciding to target a billion and a half people from dozens of countries so that most of the effort goes into investigating people who are not terrorists.

It's that large pile of shit on top of his head that has caused a huge subdermal hematoma on his brain.

Rep. King is the epitome of a "political thug." He has no limit to what he will say or do.

To say nothing of, the fact that you're trying to profile "muslims", and are simply assuming that this is somehow going to also going to catch the likes of, say, Jose Padilla, Richard Reid, and John Walker Lindh, those Muslim-looking guys with those Muslim-sounding names. Though, hey, at least Jose Padilla is brown. All Muslims are brown, right?

Or maybe we could just force everyone to disclose their religion when buying tickets. Not only would that be 100% guaranteed not have serious ramifacations of any sort, but it would also totally work, because it's not like anyone would lie about something like that.

Again, let it be noted that Peter King was proud to drink in the Irish Republican Felons Club on his visits to Belfast during his days as an "obvious collaborator with the IRA".
