Sequel,
We'll probably have to agree to disagree on this one. I think the point of clarification for me is that :
(1) EVERYONE should have the same detailed, unique screening process
(2) Northwest went a step above by removing the Arab Americans from the flight and allowed the flight to proceed.
Being the devil's advocate here: Let's just say that I look like I could be of Arab descent yet I'm really Black. Do the Northwest officials really believe that my name is Tishaun Jackson or have I assumed someone else's identity? Point is, I have cousins that look like they are of Arab descent; yet, they are your everyday black folk. So, where does one draw the line so that we can all feel safe? What is really feeling safe? Cuz the caucasian guy with the coked out lookin eyes, long stringy hair, and the strange, heavy-looking back pack causes me the same amount of discomfort that someone of Arab descent might.
