MSP Airport (24)
plarkinMinneapolis, Minnesota USA69 Threads 514 PostsI am writing this using my Iphone at Minneapolis airport. First CS is now acessable via mobile devices-- that's great! I' m headed for a weekend trip to Paris. In line ahead of me was a youngg man from the Islamic Republic of Iran. He was treated with respect by the TSA but was given " special" treatment for which I' d like to apologize to him. What's wrong with treating everyone the same, I. E., with concern and care? Sorry for any typos!

Don't recall any blacks, whites or midgets attacking us on 9/11

maybe they just wanted him to feel special before they send the troops into iran and have a nice little war with them

They weren't Iranian either. But why let facts cloud your brain?

Just the fact that the Iranian government would like to exterminate Israel is enough reason for me.

I am with u.I saw them waving a sign in Iran, that read,destroy Israel,destroy America.Proof enough for me.

why would you want to apologise for people respecting
others and doing their job of ensuring your safety on a
plane?

Things are no longer like they used to be, and it is unfortunate that innocent people have to be insulted directly/indirectly as a result of the things others have done.

how can "treated with respect" mean insulted?

I agree Class,once my daughter was searched and we were delayed untill we missed our flight.Shes Native American,but we were not so perturbed, we knew they were just doing their job.

I get the thorough search every time I fly. Probably because I'm usually a lone male passenger. I resent it but obviously have to go along with it. Somehow I don't think I'd be the "profile" they're wanting as I'm about as lilly white as they come.
Were it up to me, I would kick every Arab out of the country that wasn't a U.S. citizen; temp. workers, students, etc.
I still clearly remember people jumping from the top stories of the Twin Towers...will never forget it. Regretfully, most Americans have~~

Its a little like the stop and search law in the UK. Last year over 190,000 people were stopped and searched by police. The figures were broken down into ethnic groups black white asian others. For the white group the figure was over 160,000 black 14,000 asian 6,000 others 10,000
Most people appreciate that there is a job to be done . Yes it is inconvenient but that is the situation we are in.

I agree Indy, I remember every horrifying minute of 9-11.If I start to forget I rent one of the several movies they have out so I keep it fresh in my mind, I do so out of respect for the dead and the families of the dead.

I have just returned and read this. The implication of what you're saying is that this person got "extra" treatment because he posed greater risk? I think everyone should be searched at a level that they pose no risk. There's NO acceptable level of risk be it from an old buffoon from England or a young student from Iran. By giving this person a more thorough going over just says the TSA does a cursory examination normally but if someone is from Iran he get the works. That's ridiculous.

Yes your sort were the ones who put American Japanese in concentration camps during WW2. How big of you to spare the "American" Arabs! And no it will never be up to you because you're small little man with small little ideas.

If America would distance itself from Israel and quit looking the other way when Israel misbehaves....we would have very little problems in the middle east. But we have given Israel a carte blanche to do whatever they want. Tell me why Israel can have nukes, but their enemy can't! Tell me why Pakistan and India can have nukes but Iran can't. Tell me why the country with the largest nuclear arsenal in the world can tell a small country it can't protect it's self from a nuke attack!!

If you can't see what's wrong with:
"Were it up to me, I would kick every Arab out of the country that wasn't a U.S. citizen; temp. workers, students, etc. "
I can't help you.
