OK, so explain to me please how naked photos and random fondling of genitals ensures that a plane can never be used as a weapon.
If these screenings actually worked (and weren't being performed by the federal govt) I could almost be OK with them.
Other countries (such as Israel) have been dealing with airline terrorism for a lot longer than we have and they don't use these screening techniques because they view them as being ineffective and overly intrusive... and when there actually IS a legitimate threat the airport screeners there are highly trained professionals, not high school drop outs who can barely read.
I'm still waiting for you to make your point, btw.
