At the Airport MAG
Regarding "At the Airport," I don't think it was discrimination that author Marvi A. was pulled aside because of her name. If a certain ethnic group did something as horrible as September 11, then everyone who looks like they are from that group should be searched when they are in a place like an airport.
It's probable cause. Say you're driving down the road at 45 m.p.h. and start swerving to play around. That's probable cause to pull you over for drunk driving even though you're not drunk. That's the kind of treatment that everyone gets if they look suspicious. It's for everyone's safety.
