Ann Coulter wants Jews profiled at airports
Edited on Mon Apr-18-05 09:16 PM by SteveIrving1
The Time article, which I read (I found it on the ground) quotes her as saying she wants "swarthy" males profiled at airports, and she specifically includes Jews, along with Italians.

http://www.time.com/time/archive/preview/0,10987,1050219,00.html


"You Are Now Free to Move About the Cabin -- Not So Fast, Mohammed!" But that's not (or not only) a joke. Coulter actually favors discrimination based on skin color in airports. She argues that airports should establish a separate line for men and boys whose complexion suggests they could be from the Middle East; they would be screened more thoroughly than other passengers.

"Basically," she says breezily, "aged 15 to 45--12 to 45, say.

Swarthy men ... We'd be searching, you know, Italians, Spanish, Jews, males--but you're excluding the women. You're excluding the old people. You're excluding American blacks."

The thing is, this is exactly the same phrase that has http://dir.salon.com/politics/red/2001/10/02/blue/index.html


Two weeks after penning a column calling for the United States to respond to terrorists by "invad their countries, kill their leaders and convert them to Christianity," the conservative commentator has been fired by National Review Online.

NRO's decision came after editors refused to run a follow-up piece in which Coulter singled out what she called "swarthy males."

Labeling Jews as swarthy is new. http://www.jewishworldreview.com/cols/coulter092001.asp


We should require passports to fly domestically. Passports can be forged, but they can also be checked with the home country in case of any suspicious-looking swarthy males. It will be a minor hassle, but it's better than national ID cards. It's also far less annoying than the seat belt instructions.


Let's be frank: a lot of Americans don't give a flying fu about Little Racist Annie's "kill the Arabs" remarks. But when she openly talks about including Jews in U.S. security profiling, she may be going even farther than is safe for her image.

You don't have to have a 200 IQ to see what can be done with Coulter's quote; hopefully some other Kos blogger, whether the newly-serious Bob Johnson (pulling a Han Solo by dropping some of the devil-may-care persona and getting more intense, I note) or one of the frontpagers, can do more with this than little me ever could.

38. If you are using it as an insult --
-- it is certainly transphobic.

In any event, the use of "she" in quotation marks is insulting to any m2f transgendered person, as it implies you don't take their status as female seriously.

i'd say in the case of Coulter, using "she" serves no other purpose then to question whether or not she is female by origine or transsexual.

48. referring to any transsexual as "she"
is pretty damned offensive. Why the quotation marks?

BTW Ann Coulter is very obviously NOT transsexual, and even that is besides the point.

The point is that the use, by many DU'ers (and now my goddess Randi!) of transexuality as a perjorative, or even just the punchline of the joke is not only offensive, but it perpetuates the hatred responsble for the almost twice monthly murder or lynching of transsexuals that has been going on since the early 70's.

50. With all due respect.....
I really think you need to back off on the "transphobia" hype. I've noticed several of your very aggressive, defensive posts over the past several days. I'm probably not the only one who has grown weary of them.

I sincerely congratulate you on having the courage to become the person you believe you were meant to be. I have a lot of respect for that, I really do.

But I am not going to accept for one minute that I am being "transphobic" by dispariging that hideous excuse for a human being Ann Coulter. I think that the majority of DUers (including myself) would support you in your journey through transgenderism, but I think you should perhaps lighten up and not react like we're a bunch of intolerant, right-wing dolts when we diss Coulter.

Then, next time some Tim McVeigh comes and kills hundreds of people, security will miss it. Why? Because apprently we white people aren't a threat.

The problem is not Coulter herself but the TV stations that give her airtime. She is so clearly an idiot that even the neocons have to know it. They must put her on just to irritate us and call our attention to her while they are doing something else.

58. Why would a swarthy Jew be more of a risk that a Pasty faced Jew
Like me?
(I'm a woman, so AnnMan would spare me, but you get my drift)

Is that why they consistently make my 4 foot 9 inch 87 year old father practically disrobe at the airport- because he has an olive complexion? Becuase quite frankly a toddler is more dangerous than he is.
