Thanks for acknowledging that being white inevitably changed the outcome ;)

  OTOH, on a trip to Alaska with multiple connections, my white, Irish-Norwegian descent wife was searched every time she went through security while I, her black husband, looked on with veiled amusement. YMMV.

    Not to deny the fact that profiling happens, but it occurred to me that the assumption your wife was carrying something for you might have also been at play. White women carrying narcotics is not an unheard of phenomenon. Sorry if that de-funs the situation!
