Evaluating a psychological profile of a serial killer)
Consider that the next time you climb into the cockpit of your RJ.
What does profiling a serial killer have to do with terrorist attacks in America? What percentage of planes are crashed in to buildings or into the ocean by radical Islamic terrorists? That would seem to be a more likely thing to think about when I am on an airplane, not a white male Caucasian serial killer. I see where you are trying to go but in this case that line of thinking doesn't work.
