Originally posted by LLoyd45 I'm not a Muslim, and I'm offended by sniffer dogs too! First of all, I don't like dogs, and secondly I don't care to have some a stinky, flea ridden mutt sniffing my butt and crotch.

Sniffer Dogs are necessary. Period.
Of all the people bi*ching, WHO can give a personal experience where they were so offended by these dogs???
I'm offended by these dogs.I crossed the border into canada and had to put up with a dog being put into not only my trailer but the cab of my truck.After that trip I no longer cross the border.I also pulled containers.Containers are sealed the driver is not allowed to open them.If the container you are pulling has drugs in it YOU are the one going off to prison not the shipper or reciever.Our government scares me not muslims.
By the way, there have also been Muslim women killed in the U.S. by their families for not wearing their burkas and their scarves, and for, OMG, dating a Western man.

So, how many bomb carrying terrorists have you seen lately? I haven't seen any, so I guess all that Homeland Security stuff is really working good!

By that reasoning, why should you care if they listen to your phone calls, or read all your mail, or monitor your internet usage? Why should you care if they want to perform random house or car searches if you have nothing to hide?
I care, and I don't like it at all.
But...if they have to do it...I would prefer that they use dogs and also that all security forces which I come in contact with are in desert fatigues, and male, and carrying fully automatic weapons. And while we are at it good looking...and say yes ma'am a lot too. If the government is willing to do that then I will have no problem.

In my opinion using bomb sniffing dogs is the least intrusive way to protect people in a crowded environment like a bus or train station.
People should accept the fact that putting up with an inconvenience does not automatically mean that their rights are being stepped on.

I say do away with the dogs, and have body cavity searches instead. We all want to be safe, Right? And nowhere in the Constitution does it say your rectum is inviolate from body cavity inspection by the authorities.
That's exactly why I suggested the use of the body cavity searches, Public Safety. We don't want all them evil terrorist sticking blocks of C-4 up their butts, and possibly slipping through security do we? Where's you sense of civic duty?

Your delicate sensibilities are going to have to take a back seat to public safety. Quit being a sissy and get used to this innocuous intrusion.
