What no one mentioned is if they think you are Dominican you have a better chance of being searched,i assume by your posting name that you are afro american,if so that is probably why they searched you,thought you were Dominican

Johnny, yes I am Afro American. Of course, I may have looked like a Dominican, but once they started asking me questions, they would have quickly found out that I am a American, I don't know Spanish :-)

By the way, blackshe is a abbreviation of my last name.
