I fly out of San Diego at least 1/2 a dozen times a year. I submitted to a pat down in July. I can't imagine being threatened with prosecution for refusing and saying I would rather not fly.

More disturbing is Napolitano's comment that the TSA acted appropriately. A similar statement was released by the head of the local San Diego TSA. Can you imagine the outrage in the media had this occurred while Bush was still president?
