I don’t. I went through one “check point” right after they begin. It was 2002 or 2003. When they were mostly using rental cops. My wife and I had to remove our shoes, I had to empty my pockets. They went through her purse. While I was putting my shoes back on, I saw a group of people dressed in Mid Eastern garb walk right on through and no one at the check point said a word. I said to myself that when I got beck home that I would never get into another airplane as long as they did this crap. Up to now, I have not flew again. I am in the minority, I know that. Most people that I talked to about it say that they do not mind getting their butt probed with someone’s finger, “as long as it makes them secure”.

They poked me in the stomach without warning—I had a pot belly at the time in Sept. 2002.

I almost hauled off at the guy.

I told my wife I could longer trust myself on these inspection lines.

So we have driven ever since.
