“From a risk manager's standpoint, you need the balance between adhering to the law and doing what any human being would want done to them,” said Richard Betterley, president, Betterley Risk Consultants Inc. in Sterling, Mass. “There are plenty of folks who may resemble terrorists, but are harmless.”
He added that “if you can show the average person that you tried to do the appropriate thing, then you're more likely than not to come away unscathed.”
