No need to flame me, but I feel targeted by TSA because I am old and walk with a cane, Mrs. EX is targeted TSA/CBP because she is Asian as are our kids, mother in law is targeted by TSA because she wears a medical device after fighting cancer, then certainly other people should be targeted as well especially if there is a good reason, and be without recourse just like me. On the ground and in the air.
You need to work on your math skills. The question you are implicitly asking is, "What percentage of terrorists traveling on airplanes are Muslim?" The question you should be asking is, "What percentage of Muslims traveling on airplanes are terrorists?" I believe that you will find the latter to be a wee bit lower.
As for what happens to your wife and mother, that is also disgusting and you have every right to be pissed.
