Delta Dawn,

In all sincerity, I really have to ask you to explain your statement:

I feel safer when I'm screened.
I've heard this statement before, and I really don't understand it. Believe me, I'm not passing judgment. I'm as serious as a heart attack. How does a search possibly leading to confiscation of your personal belongings and your personal detention, arrest, and fine when you know darn well you're not a threat make you feel safe?

If I were to extrapolate this out, would you feel more "safe" if you were strip-searched? Would you feel even more safe if the police searched your house before you left on your trip?

I trust you'll take this line of questioning in the manner asked. There's no hidden agenda. -- Thanks.
