Essay talk:The Watchdogs and Law Enforcement
Interesting reprint. How about the "Minutemen" and other vigilante groups? How about the independent groups that troll for sexual predators? Is this problem limited to groups that fight racism and antisemitism? Also do we have copyright vio, or are we ok?--PalMD-Talk 17:03, 23 May 2007 (CDT)

Some passenger comes through the checkpoint, he's a 22 year old sweaty nervous-looking Yemeni with a Boeing 737 Flight Manual, 8 bottles of aftershave, 5 bottles of hydrogen peroxide, fertilizer packets for his garden, and two quarts of Windex with ammonia D in his carry-on luggage, but we wave him through because Islam is the Religion of Peace and Besides We Don't Profile. Uh oh, here comes grandma Doris Johnson with her walker and her oxygen bottle. Look how slow she's walking, as if she doesn't want any wires to pop out from under her sweater. That oxygen bottle could be a bomb. Better detain her in the interrogation room way past her check-in time for a body cavity search and let the Dobermans give her the once-over.
