It is ridiculous that he think he deserves better treatment.

Khan is a very popular name in Pakistan and India. If Bob Smith gets pulled aside for random checking and the white hair senator gets stripped down at the airport (even Al Gore got some stopped at one of the airport), what makes you think Mr Khan should be treated better. After 911, there is no room for mistakes. I've been searched twice, no problem for me. Safe than sorry. If a Khan (let's say a Paki) gets through the airport and blows up another plane, is this Shah Ruk going to come to defend the innocent people like he does in his movies? Hahaha. Is he going to be liable or the TSA employee?

Funny how India cannot defend themselves from Pakis coming to their country and blowing up hotels and killing their citizen, like we saw few months back, and they have the audacity to cry racial profiling when the US is doing its job to protect their citizen. Racial profiling or not, the TSA employee did the right thing.

One billion people might know him, but there are 5 more billions who do not give a rat ass about Bollywood shit. I hope his new movie "My name is Khan" is about teaching fundamentalist not to blow up bombs and kill innocent people, but I won't be surprised if it is all about his sorry ass, crying, heart broken life story about having a Muslim name, which is NOT the real life lesson the world needs to stop terrorist. This SOB is doing all these to gain more publicity.

Nobody is going to be sorry for this incident and you'll not see Homeland Security or even the TSA apologizing. Not going to happen.

PS...I'm learning Mr Khan is changin his tone now and a bit of his story. What a shame.
