As someone who is OK with high level screening (actually i opt out if i don't get the three beeps as well) I find that mind boggling. It will certainly support those that are looking for 'pre type' screening for everyone.
You have seen this first hand? Because I find it highly unlikely......but who knows
Yes, I have seen it first hand.
Of course, if I had posted a month ago that I witnessed first hand a 9-year-old kid go through screening without even presenting a boarding pass, you probably wouldn't have believed me - but it happened - even TSA has admitted it happened. Perhaps its the only time it has ever happened - but we don't know, do we?
I'm glad you 'walk the talk' in your support for 'high level screening' by opting out. There are well-documented deficiencies in the NoS that a thorough grope can detect. You improve public aviation safety by willingly submitting to a more thorough screening.
