When flying, it's 'security theater'

A short quote:
In the Rochester airport, I witnessed a TSA body search being done on a young woman. She had already removed her sweater and footwear. Her remaining clothing was very form fitting; it would not have concealed any significant weapon. But in plain view of fellow travelers, she was asked to stand spread eagle while a female TSA employee touched every part of her body. I was not the only one uncomfortable for her, other passengers remarked at the intrusiveness of the procedure. When I looked away I saw that nearby male officers were not so shy.
