To think that Amendment IV only reflects upon those who are actual US Citizens. Otherwise, everyone will have to be asked their citizenship and thus slowing down the security lines even more.

The search and seizure at the airports is for your safety. No ifs/and/or buts about it. That tube of lipstick could actually be a lipstick/knife. That pen could be switch blade. That credit card could be a card knife.

All effects should always be searched. I cannot wait for the day when there is a full body scan like that on one of Arnold Schwarzenegger's movies where you see his bones running through security. That is the type of security we need!

Just tonight, a person ran into a school with a gun running from cops here in Chicago. Minnesota this year just passed the right to a concealed weapon. How many of those people who will be concealing those weapons, just happend to 'forget' they are carrying them in the airport?

Just remember, that extra search is put forth for your safety!
