The only way to get around this is to have EVERYONE submit to searches, along with truly random additional screening...

Probably has something to do with mandatory 3 years (2 for women) service upon turning 18. So, you could also say, that most of their bus drivers, accountants, cooks, nurses and so on and so forth are all 'well trained former military'. Somehow, I don't think that would fly here (even though it would do a heck of a lot towards obesity and general lack of respect).

Cries of unconstitutionalism? Except then they would be correct. The Fourth Amendment (as it has always been explained to me) refers to CRIMINAL searches. So, yes, arguably, if someone found child porn or some other illegal substance during an ADMINISTRATIVE search (which is what TSA conducts) then there would have to be a chain of causes that would lead one to discover the substance. What I'm saying is that if the TSA person sees reason to search your wrist, then they cannot go and feel you butt for the heck of it. Now, if they found something fishy with your wrist (say, wires coming out of your watch) then they could initiate further searches, but ONLY if they have actual reason to do so...

(Too bad most people just saw Arab, and equated that to Muslim. There are actually a LOT of Christian and Jewish people of Arab descent, that the average traveler would have no idea of the difference...)

In theory, HMA's are good to maintain the neighborhood and keep property values up, but all it takes is one asshole with a Napoleon complex to ruin it and/or someone's life...
