ME TOO, and I think we need to do profiling also. Nothing irritates me more then these "clerks" giving an old lady a hard time while a young male Arab isnt even checked. My wife, a Filipina standing about 5'2" was given a hard time over her SANDALS. THREE TIMES they made her take them off and xrayed them, she almost missed her flight and these were THIN SANDALS. Finally, I said, "what the hell do you expect to find in those thin sandals" They replied, well something is showing up on the screen. I said thats the steel shank you dumb ass, keep her sandals if it bothers you but she has an international flight to catch OUT OF THE COUNTRY no less. jdn
