OK, time for a quick, unscientific, politically-incorrect poll: How many brown people on this list have been hassled at security?
Once, at Delhi, because some threads that were part of the binding of my passport were frayed. The nice gentlemen at the counter interrogated me for 45 minutes, then called their supervisor to report that everything was in order except for the frayed threads, and that I had several valid visas, including for the US, and lots of immigration stamps. They then let me board the flight. I was slightly upset that having an US visa increased my credibility with my home country security personnel. Ram
