I too had an experience at Atlanta airport. The security officer took me to a seperate room and kept me in waiting, just because I didn't have a last name. I do accept the fact that US gov. cares so much for the last name in their records, but the same gov. didn't object, while issuing a US visa. These security guys had to agree abt. my name after around 2 hrs of waiting at the CBP office. Thats a terrible time of waiting and when you have connection flight that you are likely to miss due to this security drama.

security checks are meant to be like that. Dont u have experiences like this in indian courts where they say justice delayed is justice denied ? all of us have to live with this system. Unofrtunately individuals like us have no group of associations to take up our cases with the indian consulates like in the present instance.
Having so much money and not spending it in owns country and draining in USA is a bad citizen. He seems to be not a loyalm citizen. Let him spend in boat houses that he owns and rents all across Alleppy and Ernakulam coat

Excuse me. You are talking too loud and all those 'pan' juice falling on face. Go take a break and clean your mouth.
In my travels too i realize they care a damn about "foreigners entering" when it comes to security........and of course till now there has never been a repeat of the 9/11 in US

Remember the oklahoma bombings? The guy was a white but he got the noose. Atleast they have a better record of imparting justice than in India where ruling governments deliberately set people on a collision course by taking a side.

oklahoma bombing was a done by Timothy McVeigh and Terry Nichols but Iraqis were involved .Nichols is suspected to have been trained by AlQaeda in Philippines where he is supposed to have met Ramzi Yousef(of 1993 WTC bombing) and other AlQaeda members .MCVeigh was hanged but Nichols is on life
Mammotty was not INTERROGATED, he was only asked a few questions, if one can understand the difference.
Police and security officials anywhere in the world go by a few select parameters.
Ask yourself this question!
Men and women constitute nearly 50% each in the population; yet whenever there is any sort of crime, be it robbery, theft, murder, it is almost always the men who are rounded up for questioning and for interrogation. But we never allege that police all over the world are gender prejudiced! Right?
You can say these allegations provided if there is an illegal detention and harrassment.

'All the people of that state are primates'. Who the F are you to decide if all from the state are primates or for that matter any person from any particular part of the world are less human? You need to get civilized first before pouring your futile thoughts before others.

They dont pose any threats as far as their internal security is concerned. But our PM and Mdam Sonia Maino think that the RSS and the Sangh Parivar are threats to India and not even the Taliban or the likes of Kasav, who is now biding his time in the name of a fair trial to escape punishment like Afzal Guru. We are truely secular

Modern America goes back to 1400, and the natives go back a few thousand years only. India goes back 7000 years and also gave birth to the first language humans spoke and wrote - Sanskrit. If Americans do't know much about Indians it's because of poor schooling resulting in ignorance and lack of awareness of things outside their perimeter.

And among south asians, it is only recently (because of the vast Indian IT coolie population in the US) that Americans have been becoming aware of the existence of India and Indians !
Even the Philippines, Cambodia and Malaysia are much better known than India (not to speak about China) in the US !
