Passengers unlocking baggage for inspection away from their property, without being present (which is my point) is not part of the law, nor is it written in the language you provided. That therefore is policy. The fact is, the policy to be away from an inspection done in secret is infact illegal.

Provide to this forum a line or text in the law for airport security that says a passenger *must* unlock their bags, submit them for a secret inspection away from such owner's property? If you can, then that law is unconstitutional.

Spin.
