So in your mind it is wrong and not justified in any circumstances. I read an article today that said pre 9/11 screening only caught 20% of the tests and that was the best scores. So where are we going to go to satisfy everyone?
I've been groped by TSA. It's disgusting.
No one should be patted down without clear, probable cause. Refusing to be electronically strip-searched is not probable cause.
You'll satisfy everyone with:
- WTMD
- x-ray of carry ons
- ETP/ETD
- Termination of the Shoe Carnival and the scumbags "in charge" of TSA responsible for it
and absolutely no other searches of any kind, including ID/BP checks without clear probable cause.
