Please excuse my comment on this, but doesn’t it seem as though everybody wants to be a hero nowadays by reporting so-called “suspicious” behaviour which results in a paranoia reaction?
Surely one can’t determine a terrorist solely by the looks of an individual. Take Walker for example, he doesn’t at all fit the type characteristics of a Muslim fanatic and yet he was and got convicted on such charges.
Perhaps it would be appropriate now to scale this hype back just a notch and resume on some more common horse sense?

Before any one gets offended, yes I know what happened on the 11th and yes I keep hearing of all these continued threats Al’Quaeda is apparently proclaiming every other day. We have yet to see any concrete evident that any such operation is in the going, if you know what I mean.
