| Sad story Redneck. You don't expect them to pick out the right people, do you! These are the problems. A few years ago my wife and I were returning from a few weeks in Washington visiting family. We were elderly, relaxed, comfortable, still in love and oblivious to anything around us - not even any duty free.
Who do you think got pulled out and given a hard time searching for contraband and drugs, out of a full plane?
My wife is the most upright citizen you could find, and I had to watch them desperately tipping out her hand-bag with cynical insinuations.
I was boiling. I waited until they were finished, sent for the boss, and against their wishes and their protestations, made them conduct a detailed search of every case etc we had in order to prevent them having any slightest doubt regarding how good they were at their job. Two folk from a plane-load, and they could not have got it more wrong.
It was fairly traumatic.
