Um, they never stopped doing the grannie searches here. I took my 93 yo grandfather (in a wheel chair) to the airport a few months back and the screeners asked if he could stand and shuffle through the metal detector. We said he could, but the moronic screener thought that meant he could stand and go through a proper groping, er, searching.
So there is my poor bald headed grandfather, with his shoes off and outstrected arms, his belt removed and his pants are falling off of him while he's wavering back and forth, about to fall over--all so a $12 an hour IDIOT can check off a box. I was so ticked off, you have no idea. Of course if you say anything you're likely to get face planted into the floor and arrested. I didn't want to put the old guy through that too.
I used to fly every couple of weeks. Now it's more like every couple of years, if I can help it!
I don't think the TSA has done a damn thing to make the skies safer.
