Then I take my normal SSSS boarding pass, circle the SSSS in red, scribble my initials next to it in blue or black ink, and I can board the plane normally.

I've done this 3 times before. It works great. But there's NOTHING about my identification that could safeguard against my psuedo-terrorist tactics of avoiding unnecessary probing and disrobing.
