re: #249 Obdicut

It sucks. I don’t actually think that the random searches are the way to do security— behavior is the best way.

However, there is no reason why any specific person should be exempted. The Taliban are using 8 year old girls. They’d use grandmas too, if they got the chance.

I don’t think the way we do security is good, I think it makes people uncooperative, but, given that this is the way we do things, we can’t just say “Oh, she’s a grandma, let her through.”

Behavior monitoring is the best approach, but that would having well-trained staff - with a wage to keep them. And I think it would be warranted.

And I really do think there are methods available to them that doesn’t impact the dignity of the traveling public - especially in instances like this one. If they could swab the handbags for residue…
I’m just fed up with the lack of working in a dignified manner that pop up by the TSA.
