Here is a short quote:

In a nutshell, author Janet Lee found remarks last week by a Chicago-based TSA agent ethnically offensive.
and
Lee was at O'Hare, Terminal 2, last Wednesday, engaging in the part of the airport travel drill that involves putting one's luggage on the conveyor belt for X-raying, when a TSA agent made a failed attempt at humor.

"The first thing he said to me was, Drop it like it's Chinese laundry," according to Lee, who is Korean. "I didn't know what he was saying, and he got mad at me for not laughing and then he said, Oh, yeah, and add starch."
