Mrzzy, I mind having my bags checked, the reason being that living in, and flying to and from Belfast, through the worst years of the troubles (1971-83) I never once saw a terrorist - and I embrace Provisional IRA with that term -queueing to have his Arrmalite and his Semtex checked.Security is pure placebo - nothing more. It's to make us all feel OK. But it fucks around ordinary people, and doesn't even start to get in the way of intelligent criminals.
