Frankly I'm tired of ranting about this to any of my friends who will listen. I just have to shake my head in wonder as they proceed to search the confused 87 year old lady.

No offense, but this is ridiculous. If you do not fit the profile then you do not fit the profile. Searching 8 yr old boy scouts is supposed to actually increase security?

These measures are not about security, they're about perception of security. And that is even worse and more dangerous in my view.
