Wrong.

Because she refused additional security...because of some delusion of grandeur because she fancies herself an activist and that someone in authority actually knew who she was. She was refused access beyond the checkpoint because she refused additional scrutiny. And...she wasn't arrested because its NOT against the law to refuse that screening. HOWEVER, if you refuse that screening you are not allowed on the plane. Simple really...for someone attached to the real world.

Just like he got all upset when I posted a dictionary definition of "detain" (but that's not what common usage is). Because she did not cooperate with the authorities, Bill's mind can't handle it. I can understand that. Resist Refuse They both start with "R". "in its popular use it means to hold for an extended period of time...while I suppose if you want to be a semantic son of a bitch (which appears to be the case) then I will grant you that security can "detain" someone while relevent authorities arrive." "...popular use..." Depends upon what group you consider "popular", I guess. If you pick the Right group, resist can mean refuse. At least as far as the Authorities are concerned.

Need I remind you of who had to post a dictionary definition for whom? Oh, I'm sorry. Did you men "...lose the argument...attack the man" was going to be YOUR M.O.?

She is an 'activist' (what mean? - all others are sheep, then?) thus, B. Surely! she is as self-important as er an Economist fondling his fav model of reality.. on to orgasm (?) A + B = C. (commutative law too? C = B + A, etc.) C. Ergo - now you are professing even to know her inner motives! have created a plan for her: confront and destroy Authority wherever found!, perhaps? And Gosh! how CERTAIN have you become: that you now Know everything which happened in that airport.. and from absence of Anything but: They said / She said. Talk aboutcher Data Mining !! - Why.. You must be one of the Best 'They' have. [quite old song begins] An old refrain is haunting me.. do dah da dahh da da.. {sigh} But then I must be so stoopid to have missed the real gems buried in all those contra-dictions as in "say" "oppositely". A.
