I agree with you one hundred percent! When Michael P. Jackson gets his head out of his rear...we might see some changes. Traveling through airports is not about being PC or about people's comfort zones anymore. It's about getting where you're going...alive. And, if the DOT doesn't stop imposing these ridiculous regulations (random searches, dump searching checked baggage at counters, etc), the U.S. Airlines will really suffer. Why? Because the majority of people who fall under the "random" search profile, are our frequent traveling business-folks whose companies bring in the highest revenues for the industry. And what will those high fare-paying business folks do when they get irritated enough by these absurd security requirements? Charter. People need to start writing their congressional reps. I watched Senator Jim Jeffords get "random" searched on his way out of our airport just a few weeks ago...he didn't look too thrilled.
