Your airport probably squandered its resources on unnecessary personnel for shoe harassment, the Great Sharp and Pointy Object Search, BP haraSSSSment and other complete wastes of time. It's a problem that is epidemic across the system.

Er - nope, the airport doesn't have anything to do with security screening - it's performed by the TSA here...

Have you not been to other airports? Denver's candy-assed sack of crap FSD routinely violates the SOP on this and other matters. Denver is the worst of the Shoe Carnival offenders and its FSD, Patrick Ahlstrom is nothing but a sack of human garbage.

Groping? Why the hell am I being touched when there are no unresolved alarms? That's groping.


I have, and I haven't encountered any problems - I'm beginning to see why you might have trouble, though...

All of them will do it, but the federal government is forcing the airlines to use the government's ridiculous, un-American screening "standards". The airlines didn't want the TSA created in the first place and I am sure they would shed no tears if the entire disgrace of an agency disappeared tomorrow.

They do? Can you explain why? I was under the impression they had neither the desire to pay for, or the inclination to incur liability in the event of an attack, accident, or whatnot.
