India's Ambassador Gets Pat-Down At US Airport

[indushek]

thats why i said.. when Obama's administration visited India... uske staff ko nanga karte Airport pe - security check ke liye

I don't know your intention sir but i am really ashamed of this pathetic situation. I don't know when the subcontinent guys will stand up to these fellers, oh i wish for the day when a American official even a low class one would frisked up at the Airport.

Totally agree with you friend.

The west is still stuck in a time warp:

Subconsciously they still have that retarded superiority complex.

This thread is going off on a tangent.

Rules are rules, no matter how stupid they may seem, but need to be applied regardless of how "important" any individual might be in their own mind.

The TSA staff are required to follow procedure for someone with loose draped attire, and that is eactly what they did.

Until the TSA rules are changed, it will and should continue to happen this way.

Racism or any other "conspiracies" that people might seen it this incident are non-existent.

this happened in Mississippi which has a long history of racism going back to the days of slavery, I doubt if such incidents would have happened in liberal states like California or New York.

What Fu**ing beach is that????

 

[scrumpy]

This is not racist behaviour. The TSA is pissing off _every_one_ with their pat down searches. There are a number of youtube videos showing this behaviour.

Why should ambassadors, politicians and their ilk be treated any differently to us commoners?

This incident was due to TSA rules, which is a FEDERAL agency. Perceived liberalism, or lack thereof, has NOTHING to do with application of federal authority.

My guess would be somewhere in South Africa, during the Apartheid regime! The language beneath the English sign seems to be Afrikanns.

Its called Diplomatic Courtesy.

I dont believe that she told them she was a ambassador and being a diplomat she has certain rights they pulled her up because she was wearing a sari which is racist and ignorant.

That was Gordon's bay during the apartheid, and yes Gubbi well spotted.

Same happenend to KP delegation visiting USA for some forum and they felt insulted and refuse to enter USA rather prefer to return than being humiliated and treated as terrorist. The US sense of security or rather insecurity has reached obnoxious levels. They know they are heading doom due to their aggressive imperialist policies abroad and are in the gun sight of many!

She should not be exempt from such rules if every other flyer has to go through them. I fully support the TSA and their actions for searching this indian lady as required by the rules for everyone's safety.

Be it indian or pakistani its all the same in the american eyes. They care about their own security. Its their personal choice. Thats why there hasnt been any second 9/11. Instead of complaining we should have frisked obama. For security reasons. Its just after that jack*** visited india we had this problem.
