Eliminate political correctnes from security

No question that security failures were largely responsible for allowing both the Fort Hood and Washington Navy yard killers to have clearance and the opportunity to commit their murders.  I am convinced that political correctness also had a part.

Malik Hassan, who killed 13 military personnel, had evidenced in his actions and writings that he was a Muslim terrorist in belief, but because he was a Muslim, those above him who could have seen to his discharge overlooked his words and actions.

In the case of Aaron Alexis, he had committed violent acts and was mentally impaired, but because he was black this was overlooked and he was granted clearance.  He was thus able to gain access and kill 12 people.

Political correctness must be eliminated from security.
