Funny....

Want a job as an airline security agent?  Then pause a moment and take the following test :

(b) Crazed feminists screeching that being able to throw a grenade beyond its own burst radius was an unfair and sexist
requirement in basic training;

How'd you do? Did you detect a pattern that would indicate we'd better take a close look at a certain type of individual
who might be boarding an airplane with something on his mind other than "What's the in-flight movie?" You think so?
Horrors! You're nothing more than a closet racist who could never be hired as an official federal airport screener.

To ensure we never offend anyone - particularly fanatics intent on killing us - airport screeners will not be allowed to profile people.  They will continue random searches of 80-year-old women, little kids, airline pilots with proper identification, Secret Service agents who are members of the President's security detail and 85 year old Congressmen with metal hips.

In the last paragraph you forgot about nation heros carrying their congressional medals of honor.

Correct! Them too.
