eyecue: That is not the case in IND - when you don't take your shoes off - secondary automatically and it would appear its retaliation. It makes me sick. Happens at Terminal D (US/UA) and Terminal B/C.
Correct. Two weeks ago at IND, Ididn't want to remove shoes and sent to secondary. After being cleared, a supervisior came by to ask me if anything was wrong. We chatted about the shoe carnival and I showed him my shoes and point-blank asked him if they fit the profile. He stated that I should not have been singled out for my shoes alone. Period.
