Cry me a river.

The PreCheck experience (minus the liquid restrictions) should be the default for all passengers.

I don't think PreCheck needs longer lines, rather I think PreCheck lines need to be eliminated. I do think that the type of screening that comes with PreCheck LLL outcomes indeed ought to be the default practice for passengers.

[Same goes for Global Entry, enrollment and use of which also ought to be a free right to all US citizens with a valid US passport.]

I've been pretty consistent in criticizing this DHS "all animals are equal but some animals are more equal than other animals" practice that DHS has been using against ordinary US passengers at airports (sometimes even at airports outside of the US).
