That presenting identity credentials at the checkpoint is optional? That electing to do so allows passengers through the checkpoint with a less-thorough search of their belongings? That electing to do so allows passengers through the checkpoint with fewer questions from TSA? Best I can tell, these are all the case.
If you've explained before, please explain one last time, in this thread, which was created for just such a discussion.
You HAVE to show a Government issued approved form of photo identification in order to access the security checkpoint. There is an alternative method of verification of id but any wrenches in this process and you dont get in. END OF STORY. Also it has nothing to do with how thoroughly you are searched.
