A reader nails it: “Dear Mr. Derbyshire—They keep referring to racial

profiling ‘victims’. Victims of what? Beings asked a few questions? Being

asked to walk through the metal detector again? I can’t remember the last

time I’ve seen the word ‘victim’ used so superficially. Who will Amnesty

International champion next? Theatre ‘victims’ who are forced to endure

excessive previews? Restaurant ‘victims’ who are wrongfully served fries

when they ordered onion rings? I thought these people were supposed to

stick up for people who were being tortured? What a joke.”
