Jack Dunphy on Airport Security on National Review Online:

"Officers were of course discouraged from stopping cars based on any outward sign that they might contain Arabs or Muslims. That would be racial profiling, after all, and we sure can't have any of that! A Buick brimming with Baathists or Mercedes full of Mohammedan mullahs would have sailed right through if it didn't happen to be the tenth car, and probably even if it did."
