Now dad gumit, girl, you know need & have is not the same & my wishful thinking doesn’t do much either…aha well, just keep on truckin’ FYI In the San Francisco airport about 3 yrs ago it was reportd that 2/3 if TSA agent spoke only the basic English or none at all…How secure does that make ya feel?

Thanks Jan. What we need are screeners who can read people and pick up cues from their body language.
I also updated with a link to the video.

Attention: Common Sense has left the building. Now that is my first reaction & remains my ‘primary’one. Then I recall pictures of a very elderly woman apprehended by Border Patrol in Az that was a mule & carried bags of cocaine strapped to her thighs & a bundle around her waste ‘paying her way’ across the border. Also in Falfurias Tx a child in a stroller had almost a kilo of marajuana in the diaper. So will allow ‘some leeway, but there is a much better way if TSA has an ‘honest’ & rational suspicion. The parent under watch should be allowed to do any touching!!
