Whether one agrees with Espada or not, one cannot argue with the logic of this thinking.
Logic? Can't quite see the logic here. The original poster is implying that no member of the Muslim faith can be trusted to do a job in airport security. This is prejudice pure and simple. The recent incident on the US base has nothing whatsoever to do with civil aviation and has to do with an individual who has gone seriously off the rails.

Presumably those of you who agree with the original post would, by the same 'logic', believe that no one of Irish descent should be employed in Manchester shopping centres and that no one from the Basque region should ever be employed in the Spanish tourist industry.

To blame an entire religion for the actions of terrorists is wrong. Recent terrorist attacks against the aviation industry have been carried out by Muslims, that is not being denied, but that does not in any way make someone a terrorist because they are a muslim.
