@SamHarrisOrg The fact that you elaborated with more nuance doesn't absolve you of indefensible phrasing, esp if u don't take it back. -
@OmarBaddar Please think a little longer about the import of the word "conceivably." -
@SamHarrisOrg I get that includes people who aren't Muslim, but someone's potential "Muslimness" is still what you want profiled, is it not? -
@OmarBaddar@SamHarrisOrg More like don't waste time on the people who clearly aren't. -
@Adam_Pap@SamHarrisOrg & I'm in favor of that. But then don't say "anyone who looks like he or she could conceivably be Muslim" -
@OmarBaddar@Adam_Pap@SamHarrisOrg At least your problem is with the wording, not the logic. So you too would profile Muslim looking people -
@sisboombahbah@Adam_Pap@SamHarrisOrg Muslim parents with a toddler & an 8 year old look like Muslims, & no they shouldn't be profiled. -
@OmarBaddar@SamHarrisOrg In a well thought out anti-profiling scheme they'd be less of a threat than 5 young men from Syria. Assess risk. - 4 more replies
