Just curious. Practicing the Islam religion is a religous conviction. How does a TSA person know if I am a practicing member of any religious group? I am Catholic but there is nothing on my driver's license or passport that indicates that conviction. I think the issue here is profiling based on national origin or race. I am not taking a position on whether it is appropriate in the effort for national security, just that we may be dealing with a misnomer here. I know of US citizens, both white and African Americans, who practice the Islam religion and I do not think they would be part of the TSA effort.
