Stan, I understand what you are saying and I did not mean to paint you as a racist if that is how you took it. Your wife was prudent in her action and she had proper cause. Do you think that after checking the guy out 3 times for id and weapons and still finding nothing, it is still prudent to keep him in the airport instead of delivering what he paid for and had every right to? All justification for those actions stopped once the man was frisked for weapons and his id checked out. The authorities have the responsibility to both address and calm public fears. In this case they succumbed to it, so I blame them for a job badly done. JMO, ST
