ACTION ALERT: Suspected Racial Profiling in Explosives Bust
Posted by Frank J. at 08:19 PM | View blog reactions | Comments (20)

Two Middle Easterners were found to possess explosives in a routine traffic stop in South Carolina. Really, what's the chance of finding that in a "routine" traffic stop?

I call profiling!

We the blogosphere need to investigate this and find out which police officers were involved and hold them accountable.

Come on! A "routine" traffic stop?! How dumb do they think we are?

Seriously, though, with the luck we've had in America of avoiding terrorist attacks, I guess by Pat Robertson's view no one has done anything gay enough to make God angry since 2001.

If you click through to the ABC4 news report, the headline is "No Link To Terrorism". Sure, it's just a couple of non-U.S. citizen students of Middle Eastern descent... who were making a bomb as a project for chemistry class or something. We don't know anything else about them, but we can confidently say that they're Not Terrorists. Nothing to see here, folks, move on...

Yes but... one of the arrestees is named "Megahed".

#2 - Posted by: on August 5, 2007 08:59 PM

"Megahed", huh? Well, I knew those hair metal bands of the 80s would come to no good.

#3 - Posted by: K T Cat on August 5, 2007 09:14 PM

Maybe if we would just reach out to these two guys, they would think we're nice people. You know, help them carry the C4 from their bomb making labs or give them advice on how to fuze the bombs correctly. Then they would stop trying to kill us and start inviting us over for Saturday afternoon tofurkey BBQs. That's all I'm saying.

What about American Idol?

[Yeah, you'd think Ryan Seacrest alone would be worth a hurricane or two. -Ed.]

#5 - Posted by: on August 5, 2007 09:24 PM

Megahed and Ragahed, the Blow-up Brothers Band.

#6 - Posted by: Oomgala on August 5, 2007 09:36 PM

I thought Megahed tied the home run record this weekend. And just how big a hat do you have to wear to get called Megahed?

#7 - Posted by: JorgXMcKie on August 5, 2007 10:34 PM

I don't know. "Driving while homicidal" doesn't generate quite as much sympathy as "driving while black."

Have you seen the commercial for Holiday Inn where the boss is singing along to REO Speedwagon ("Take It On the Run") on his headphones? His little yes men sing along, sorta making fun, sorta not, and they all get the words half right?

Obviously you haven't, or you'd never have said what you did.

#9 - Posted by: Socrates on August 5, 2007 10:51 PM

Talk about Karma. You do NOT want to end up in prison if your last name is Megahed. I'm just glad the police didn't shoot one of them in the butt. Then we'de have to make then citizens and pay them a settlement. Not to mention sending the police to prison.

#10 - Posted by: hwy93 on August 5, 2007 11:41 PM

Megahed must be a pretty common last name. There are 100,000 Google results for Megahed. The Feds say there was no bomb. Megahed must have eaten it.

Uh, that's because Fred Thompson is running for President.

DUH!

I personally think Pat Robertson's comments were totally ignorant and wrong. That being said, I was a little nervous when "Brokeback Mountain" was released...

P.S. Is there such a place as Brokeback Mountain? Because if there isn't, someone was having a good laugh with that title...

#13 - Posted by: bunkerboy on August 6, 2007 02:11 AM

Perhaps we should hold a debate of democratic hopefuls with questions coming from young middle-eastern toughs caught roaming the US with explosives in their trunk. This way we could all collectively "feel their pain" and truly understand why all of this is America's (Bush, Cheney, Rice, Halliburtin, Republican)'s fault...

Or the bad guys have been more gay than we have. They've been getting hammered pretty well.

So, after the Jon Edwards catty "salmon jacket" comment at the YouTube debate, we can expect a few carbombs?

#18 - Posted by: James on August 6, 2007 12:18 PM

As per an old post from Frank that was linked to recently, it's possible that the policemen didn't realize that "terrorist" is now a race. Now the ACLU is gonna get involved.

"I guess by Pat Robertson's view no one has done anything gay enough to make God angry since 2001."

Let's inventory, shall we?
Friends - over
Will and Grace - over (thank God!)
Ellen - over
News Radio - over
John Edwards - running for president

OK, if he gets the nomination, avoid the East coast.
