Palin On Muslim Profiling: 'I'm All For It'
Rachel Slajda | November 18, 2009, 9:41AM

On Hannity last night, former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin said she's "all for" profiling Muslims if it saves "innocent American lives."

Speaking about the Fort Hood shooting, she said there were "massive warning flags that were missed all over the place" because of a "fear of being politically incorrect."

"Profiling" the alleged shooter, she said, would have meant investigating the "simple things, like looking at his business card that had the secret code word for who it actually was" he was working for.

Not that her words don't make her appear enough of a clown.

3. I am so sick of this "politically correct" talking point..
There is no excuse for bad police work. Racial profiling is just plan bad police work.

Here in my South Jersey community, the police chief met an worked with Muslim leaders to train police so they would be familiar with what is culturally normal and what the real warning signs would be.

Racial profiling just wastes resources.

6. This is the sort of rhetoric that would help her and republicans if the US
received a terrorist attack during the 2012 campaign season.

8. What about profiling....
people who want to run for President of the United States who think they have foreign policy experience because they can see Russia from their house? Sarah, are you for profiling in this situation? Someone who is that incompetent can cause more deaths to the people of the world than any Muslim person (Exhibit A - George Fucking Bush!).

16. Can we profile her
for not helping people just because of the sexual orientation? Or worse preventing rape victims from support?

19. Palin doesn't realize how ridiculous her business card comment was...
she spends time everyday talking about 'getting the government OUT' of people's lives and now she is suggesting that THE GOVERNMENT should have been investing the BUSINESS CARD of an AMERICAN. Like it or not Hasan is an American. If she is going to promote 'profiling of Americans' then it will affect all of us in an adverse way - she is just promoting continuing Bush's stance on taking away more of our rights.

24. So, Using Palin's Argument, We Should Profile Lonely, Middle Aged, White Males
Because that was the "profile" of that shooter who stalked and killed those women in that Pittsburgh gym earlier this year.
