It will be as it will be. My ex-husband was always mistaken as middle eastern because he had a dark complexion and a big nose. People need to understand that the inconvenience is in the best interest of all.

If they fit the profile, yes. My brother in law was pulled aside at the Denver airport two years ago because he was a man traveling alone with no luggage and a one way ticket. My brother in law is white as white can be.
I'm dying to know what folks are going to say when some bomb carrying blond haired, blue eyed, Bosnian, Chechen, or American muslim walks by a security check point because they are all too busy searching some poor Sikh, or Lebanese Maronite.

Never fear. Inspectors are always aware of "anti-profiles" used to deflect attention away from an individual. From my experience working the secondaries, many times a Mr. MaGoo or a Betty White type is the very one carrying the drugs, bomb, contraband, etc.
