Flights Fraught with Fear


Here is one reason I'm not eagerly anticipating my flight in a few weeks. Flying these days is starting to look like taking the public bus. In this story, a paranoid stewardess made everyone on the flight twelve hours late and publically humiliated an entirely innocent (Arab-looking) American citizen becaus she suspected he had bypassed security. I think a surefire bestseller would be something like, How to Survive Racial Profiling in the Air. I'm sure you can think of a more clever title.
