Can't we at least use common sense? An old women from Eastern Europe is not exactly the profile of a terrorist. This reminds me of joke about the blind Irish nun in a wheelchair getting harassed by TSA scum.

Having her strip is beyond outrage. Somebody is getting their rocks off of terrorizing old, foreign women. Nobody could seriously believe this old women is trouble.

Right. My wife's grandparents were held in Charlotte last year when they returned with us from Germany. They're both 85. They were held for 4 hours and we missed our next flight as a result. We had to wait an additional 8 hours to finally find a flight to our destination. Neither of them are exactly the profile of a terrorist either. But several years before they'd overstayed their travel Visa by a few days and it threw up some red flags.

They have to check these things. Sometimes it borders on the absurd and inconveniences us, but that's what the times call for.

Considering how often they seem to be pulling this on the elderly, infirmed, and children... I wonder if on an individual basis the agents have to pull out x number of people without "racial profiling", and choose those they think are least likely to fight it enough to get them in trouble. They get all kinds of associations publicly leaning on them for giving muslims and non-white races extra attention - who claims discrimination against old white folks? Maybe the AARP ought to be focusing on things like this instead of trying to socialize health care.

An old women from Eastern Europe

I think she's just one woman.

Again, I think she is just one woman.

Are you trying to imply that she has multiple personalities?
