[QUOTE="Dale00, post: 1374817, member: 688"] Perhaps it comes down to the definition of profiling. I'd call it any behavior or other factor that causes an individual to be in a "high threat group." Traveling to Pakistan for an extended period does appear to be a factor - lots of terrorist training camps there, I believe. Like it or not, being a Muslim male of a certain age makes it more likely that you are a terrorist. This is not the same thing as hating Muslims. You may be thinking that that terrorist planners will simply use more western looking people or women or someone else outside the current profile. I could argue that either way. ..time to hit the hay if I'm going to be able the cook that turkey tomorrow. Have a good one. [/QUOTE]
