Get used to it. These federal government bastards want TSA-style patdowns and x-rays at shopping malls, train stations, and practically any public place. It has nothing to do with security, and everything to do with making slaves of us all. Its not about terrorism or security, its about conditioning the masses to accept total control over their lives. We are the frog in the slowly boiling pot of water.
As a previous poster said, a white Briton is herded like cattle, while an Arab would pass through because “we dont want to offend the Muslims.” That alone is proof that this has nothing to do with fighting terror.
In a generation or two, Americans will willingly submit to security checks at the malls. Please remember that the next generations of American voters attend schools and walk through metal detector gates and submit to bookbag searches every day!
