UN: No Religious Profiling To Fight Terrorism

By DMartyr · Friday, March 28. 2008 09:14

Is it wrong to profile when a specific minority makes up a majority of terrorist attacks? The UN seems to think so:

The United Nations Human Rights Council in Geneva has passed a resolution calling on states not to resort to racial, ethnic or religious profiling while countering terrorism.

Let's take a look at the FBI's Most Wanted Terrorists list:

Hmm, see any common characteristics among this group of men? If you said "young, Muslim males", you are a bigot and a racist. Go sit in a corner until you learn to be more tolerant.

I ask again, is it wrong to profile when a specific minority makes up a majority of terrorist attacks?

Here is what a handful of random people think about this article. But first, the fine print:
The opinions expressed here, even where approved for display, do not necessarily reflect the opinions of this website, the management, or any other entity or organization, with the exception of the Vast Zionist Conspiracy. Those opinions we represent in style, yo. Please keep the language in these comments clean, as this is intended to be a family-friendly, work-friendly website. Comments not compliant with this policy will be edited for content where necessary. Abusive or otherwise illegal comments will be reported to the proper authorities, up to and including the aforementioned Vast Zionist Conspiracy. The Management cannot and will not be held responsible for commenters making a spectacle of themselves, even if The Management are the said commenters in question. In other words, don't take yourself so seriously, folks. We're all here to discuss the news, and more importantly, to have fun. Now go get yourself into some OCD treatment program—you obviously need it if you actually read all of this mess.

*Perhaps the UN is trying to earn their way on our list of <a href=http://www.state.gov/s/ct/rls/fs/37191.htm>designated terrorist organizations</a>.

*It's wrong because only 99% of terrorists are muslim males. So if we caught 99% of the terrorists by profiling...

Wait, which side of the issue am I on again?
