Are you South Asian, or Indian? It's difficult to ascertain based on the fact you stated both. If you are Asian, and do not even appear Indian, why mention that fact?
Additionally, TSA agent's normally don't start grabbing, they advise you what they are about to do and why. If you feel uncomfortable, then you can request it be done in private.
Some TSA agents are losers, some are trying to do a job, and protect people. I however gather from your tirade that you accusing the woman, who may have simply been trying to do her job, of being ugly and dumb? Ugly in who's eyes? Yours? You may appear ugly and dumb to many people, but casting aspersions based on your perceptions is not a definitive measure.
Lastly, you can complain, and if you chose to do so, but do so using a "matter of fact" composition, and explain it with a unemotional statement, instead of the rant I read above. That is of course, if you want to achieve any results and not have your letter used to weigh down the round circular filing cabinet.
Am I Indian or South Asian ? Why, both ! Every Indian is South Asian, but not vice versa. You see : South Asian is ANYbody from : India, Pakistan, Nepal, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka and Burma. I'm sorry you were forced to drop out of school before you got a chance to learn that. Have you considered taking online classes ie some virtual college to get more knowledge ? Or, you can always go on priceline.com and book a ticket to Jupiter so you can get more Stupider.....

BS!! Most Indians, Pakistanis, Sri Lankans, Nepalese and Bangladeshis are Sout Asians and consider themselves Asians or S Asians - NOT MEs. Try looking up any reasonable source(s) mentioned before, or talk to some Indians.
Actually I did. And my friend said that people tend to equate asian as having certain facial features and lighter complexions and that people start asking questions that she is is tired of answering.
I am sure there are those that equate to being south asian, but there are those who are tired of answering the questions.
BTW how many iranians do you know who tell you they are asian? how about saudi's?

Neither Iranians nor Saudis are Asian. See my above post for what constitutes SOUTH ASIAN. PS : Most Indians positively detest Middle Easterners and will spit at you for calling them that.

OK, I'm not denying what your friend might erroneously think. Eminem and Bubba Sparks also think they are black. Some black people
think Darius Rucker is white ! However : the generally accepted AND official definition of a person of Indian origin or nationality's race is SOUTH ASIAN.
I detest the ACLU, but this is one class action law suit begging to happen. Are you reading this ACLU? Do something really useful for once in your life.
