Reader comment on item: The System "Worked Really Very, Very Smoothly" in Detroit?
Submitted by Charles Nickalopoulos (United States), Jan 11, 2010 at 07:32
Common sense would dictate that any Arab- appearing person(s) should have extra screening. They brought this on themselves, so there should be no complaints, in fact an innocent Arab or Muslim, should be glad, because it is for their safety too.
