I am just back from a trip to the US, flew into LAX and onto LAS with AA, interestingly.....at the boarding gate at LAX, some passengers were subjected to a full detailed examination, including wanding, check of shoes, hand search of carry-on baggage, and a very thorough hands on body search.
Full marks to the security people for their attention, but they lost all my confidence when it was quite clear that the only passengers being subjected to this attention, where all non US nationals. I counted 21 people in the line behind me, and watched as all where checked, all carrried European passports.
Discrimination or what, or maybe there are no security threats from people carrying US passports
