Racial Profiling In Today's Airports

In today's airports you have to do a lot of unnecessary security screenings, but they are not always unnecessary. The tests and screenings are really unnecessary when they are done on the elderly, and on the very young. The only people that need to have extra safety screenings done are people from the Middle East, and people with mental disorders. This may seem racist to these certain groups of people but it is not. This is not racist because if you look at past plane hijackings it was mostly always a person with a mental disorder or of Middle Eastern descent. I know we do not want to take the risk of another plane hijacking, but we need to at least bump back security so it is not so insane to fly to a different city. The only time that there should be a lot of security is when the person is from a different country, and when it is hard to understand what the person is talking about. On September 11, 2001, the guy that gave the terrorists their tickets to board the plane knew that there was something wrong about them and that he should have told security about the two terrorists, but he did not and it ended in a disaster. This is when we should use racial profiling in the airports around America. We should use all of our security on those kinds of people not on the people we know are not going to commit a crime. Everyone should go through a metal detector, however it is not necessary to search small children and seventy year old grandmothers. I have also heard that in some airports in the United States of America that they are making passengers do full body scans. These scans show every part of a persons body and they are a huge invasion of a person's privacy. This is going way over board and they should stop doing this because it is just not right and we need to stop this. The only time that they should use this security measure is when someone is from a different country or someone that is mentally unstable. Airports around America should start thinking about this because it is not just inconvenient for the passengers that are innocent and are planning to just fly to another city but its also a waste of time. Airports should think about using racial profiling and cut back security on people they know would not commit a crime and add security to those people who they think would commit a crime. It seems as if racial profiling would eliminate the need for innocent law abiding Americans, including children and elderly people from being searched unnecessarily. If this step were taken, flying could return to the quick and pleasant travel experience that it used to be.
