i am always "randomly" taken aside and searched. at Greenville/Spartanburg Airport i was asked to remove my sari and shoes. i had my sari pins confiscated and was then made to take my hair down. since i am inept at keeping a sari on without the pins i had to carry the thing around and drape it over myself so i wouldn't be almost completely exposed...jerks....

Mikahel	Posted Aug 21st, 2009 at 10:30AM I never had anything confiscated, but I have always been pulled to the side to be 'checked' and whatnot. Must be the long hair. I hate profiling like that. Rated: +1Vote for this!
trixiegirl	Posted Aug 21st, 2009 at 10:34AM They took my hand lotion on one flight. I thought I'd be OK since it wasn't anywhere near full. That's when I learned about the 3 ounce container rule.... On another, they took the bottle of water that I had just purchased at the overproced airport shops. It was sealed and I had the receipt! I know they were just doing their job , but geeeesh!
