Do you, seriously, believe that professional security staff look at a lady in a burqa and say "We aren't going to touch her".

I'd like to think they are more clued up than we are. Would it be difficult?

The alternative would be search everyone and abandon random checks, but sounds like you'd be against that.
Or maybe wave a magic wand and get rid of all the "bad people" and we can fly endlessly at leisure around the world. Great idea but I can see a few practical issues :-)

/// Richard Reid was not from an ethnic minority. ///

Are you sure about that Gromit?

*** Reid was born in Bromley, Kent, to Lesley Hughes, who was of white English descent, and Colvin Robin Reid, a man of mixed race whose father was a Jamaican immigrant.

*** When Reid was born, his father, a career criminal, was in prison for stealing a car. Reid left school at age 16, becoming a petty crook who was in and out of jail, the first time for mugging an elderly person. He began writing graffiti under the name "Enrol with FRF crew", and ultimately accumulated more than 10 convictions for crimes against persons and property.He served sentences at the Feltham Young Offenders Institution and at the Blundeston Prison. ***

*** His father advised him to convert to Islam, telling him that Muslims were more egalitarian and they got better food in prison. The next time Reid was incarcerated (in 1995 for petty theft), he converted. ***

Yes I agree, it was the same with the security cameras that were installed in an area where they lived, they soon had those removed.

Another similarity is the controversy over 'stop and search'', the police now have to be very careful who they choose to search.

Funny how our leaders are not afraid to offend us.
