Much like at U.S. Airports, she was probably a little old white lady. Now, had she been wearing a “burka” w/part of her face hidden, from a middle-eastern country, and looked suspicious, the so called Rent A Cop probably would not only have done no searching of her personal belongings, but neither would he have questioned her presence in any way. Racial profiling, you know.
I had to go to the Social Security office in northern Virginia, Alexandria, before the state let me renew my drivers license. The building is old, cruddy and not all that clean. The clerks had an attitude. The parking is a nightmare. I think I was the only person in the waiting room born in this country. Lots of women with clusters of kids wearing burkas with their faces partially or completely hidden (the ones from Oman wore leather masks that covered their faces). Another crowd of people from Central America. And there is a big sign on the wall in several different scripts offering translation services for dozens of languages. Our immigration policies are allowing us to be ripped off and these parasites are sucking us dry.
