Wonderful. Just when it seems that perhaps we've cooled down a little on the whole "flying while Arab" profiling thing, we get lovely things like this:

No suspicious data found on ECC computer hard drives: No suspicious or terrorism-linked information was discovered on the Edison Community College computer hard drives seized by Collier County sheriff's deputies earlier this week. [...] The hard drives were taken from the ECC campus library in East Naples on Wednesday night after someone called authorities about three men who appeared to be of Middle Eastern descent whispering together and using the Internet. Officials said they were accessing Islamic newspapers and other Islamic sites. [...] Officials say investigating any suspicious behavior is routine when called in by a concerned member of the public.

The problem, as I hope the librarians tried to make clear to the Collier County sheriff's department, is that such behavior is neither illegal nor even reasonably suspicious in nearly any college in the country. You can find students doing that sort of thing all the time. It's fairly clear that it was only considered suspicious because they were apparently Arab.

I hope they weren't able to locate the men doing this -- it doesn't appear that they were, but the article is understandably terse. It's quite probable that the FBI would have been called in, and once there, would have felt the need to detain them at length, just to justify appearances. That is, after all, what seems to be the primary motivation behind most of the continuing detentions these days.
