Should Middle-Eastern males be subject to more stringent sea
The day after September 11th, people started to think how we could prevent it from happening again and improve airport security. I think a vital question came up in order to stop another September 11th scene. The question should Middle-Eastern males be subject to more stringent searches at airports than non Middle-Eastern males. I shall answer that question by using three articles. First one is The Case for using Racial Profiling at Airports, by Stuart Taylor Jr. He says Arab passenger might attempt to hijack an airplane. Second article At First Glance-Racial profiling, burning hotter, by John Derbyshier, who says we should have racial profiling in airports. The third one is One the Right, by William F. Buckley Jr., which appeared in National review on June 17, 2002 who says Arabs have been engaged in every identified act of terrorism. The article The Case for using Racial Profiling at Airports, talks about using racial profiling at airports and how all people who have hijacked an airplane to kill Americans have been Arab men. The next article At First Glance-Racial profiling, burning hotter, which says using racial profiling in airports to protect our selves from harm and how racial profiling is a way to prevent terrori
The last article On the Right, by William F. Buckley Jr. points out it has been Middle-Eastern people who have been connected to acts of Islam related terrorism and not blacks, whites, or Hispanics. An idea would be to check all Middle-Eastern males movements when they enter the airport and to make sure that their luggage has been thoroughly examined by officers. This is possible to do and can be accomplished without the repealing of the Bill of Rights. The last article says, "there is a level of security not manageable by any intensification of body and luggage examinations." Just hearing those words makes me worry if we do have a bad security system why isn't anyone finding a way to improve the system? I think if we start doing a heavier search on Middle-Eastern males then we can say we have a security system that is manageable and will work to keep the Americans safe. sm. The third article On the Right, says racial profiling could be used in airports and it can happen without repealing the Bill of Rights. In the first article I disagree with Attorney General John Ashcroft who said, "I'm against using race as a profiling component," we need to give a reason on why we want to search certain people. We can say because you are Middle-Eastern we would like to search
