Actually, I knew a guy who used to smuggle drugs into nightclubs in his afro, so targeting people on the basis of whether their hairstyle is physically capable of concealing contraband seems quite reasonable.
If you don't like it ... then you are free to change your hairstyle ...

Come to think of it, there's no justification for allowing passengers to keep their clothes on as they pass through security.

- tuesdayrain 8y agoI will never discriminate against someone for something they can't reasonably change. But discriminating against them for something they consciously choose is totally fine in my opinion.
