From the photograher Dean Shaddock:
This was captured as I collected my things from airport security
(Detroit Metro Concourse A). I think of it as something like a
Rorschach test. Is an elderly Catholic nun being frisked by a Muslim
security agent the celebration of blind justice? Or is it simply an
admission of absurdity?

SPREAD THE WORD!
I don't know how true this is but maybe it's worth a try....A little pig poo at the WhiteHouse might do the trick ..LOL
PEOPLE IN MICHIGAN and NEW YORK NEED TO TAKE A LESSON FROM THE SPANIARDS!
In Sevilla Spain , local people found a way to stop the construction of another mosque in their town. They... buried a pig on the site, and made sure this would be known by the local press.
The Islamic rules forbid the erecting of a Mosque on "pig soiled ground." The Muslims had to cancel the project. This land was sold to them by government officials.
No protests were needed by the local people...and it worked!

I can't say with any certainty that the passenger is a nun. However I can say that the "Security officer" is Muslim.
The Muslim guard may actually be the most honest, law-abiding, America-loving woman on Earth. However she is too easily compromised by enemies, who could get to her family. Similarly, she may be biased against checking Muslims, which creates a bigger likeliihood of attack.
Any airport which allows Muslims into sensitive areas, cannot be safe. Just as any country with an Iranian embassy, thanks to the diplomatic pouch, isn't safe.
No, it's not politically correct. Just a statistical reality.

This would make flying so much easier on all of us …
Here's a solution to all the controversy over full-body scanners at the airports:
All we need to do is develop a booth that you can step into that will not x-ray you, but will detonate any explosive device you may have hidden on or in your body. The explosion will be contained within the sealed booth.
This would be a win-win for everyone. There would be none of this crap about racial profiling and the device would eliminate long and expensive trials.
I can see it now: you're in the airport terminal and you hear a muffled explosion. Shortly thereafter an announcement comes over the PA system, "Attention standby passengers, we now have a seat available on flight number..."
Works for me!

We are losing the focus of religious fervor. Keeping score of the countless lost of life for little reason is merely perpetuating this divide and conquer mentality. The elite have little time for religion as they take the candy from us pathetic fools.
