Last week, airport security in our biggest National Airport got new guidelines for frisking, basically telling them to go for the TSA style grope and finger approach. it was called 'intimate frisking'
After less than a week, it was cancelled after a slew of complaints by passengers, as well as union representatives and security employees. Many people were so uncomfortable with having to molest passengers that they were going to resign if those procedures were not repealed. The union spokesman said that while security was important, so was the privacy of the passengers. He said procedures should be implemented in a sensible way that respects both considerations.
Score for freedom and privacy.
