About 6 weeks ago I was hanging back when a domestic flight was about to board. One of the agents when around about a dozen people at the gate and eventually saw that I had a boarding card and looked at it. His finger made its way to the bottom of the boarding card to where it was imprinted that I had used Easy Checkin - and then directed me to a security screener.

That was the right thing to do. Hanging around to see if you could avoid being picked for a search is suspicious behavior.
