haha you think you guys get searched bad? trying being the same skin color as the terrorist. It was funny the cops were following me around the airport (haha they thought i didn't see them) when my cousin got in line for the metal detector they pulled him away after he got searched the 1st time and had him searched again by different personal a 2nd time. Same thing happened to my aunt, and what made it really weird is we watched all the people as they went through the thing and got their purses bags out of the xray machine after my aunt took hers they stopped her and searched her purse. We were like jeez talk about racial profiling, it was a pretty god laugh but it was also kind of sad to think that since such a small group of people can give a bad name to such a large group.

I was in some airport recently and I got called to do a secondary search, no big deal. But the girl in front me was getting the handheld metal detector treatment. I had to laugh as they were running the device over her arms...because she had a sleeveless sweater on! I mean, was she hiding a switchblade under her skin?!

Better too much security than not enough.
