Sounds like a case of not respecting cowering in fear of their authoritay.
Perzactly.
This is an agency which has decided that anyone wishing to fly to, say, take the kids to Gramma's in Miami or to a family vacation to Disney is undoubtedly actually a cunning terrorist mastermind intent on blowing up the plane and passengers, and is only grudgingly willing to admit you might not be such after you submit to either being seen nude courtesy of the Nude-O-Scope or to a perp-frisk - and often, both. An agency which demands you go barefoot on filthy floors "out of an abundance of caution"; which frisks heads (either stroking one's hair or actually massaging a shaved-bald head), bodies contained by bike shorts, tights, and bare legs but will have you arrested if you'd rather be taken to a private room and literally strip nude rather than be felt up; which thinks it's reasonable for their agents to spill the contents of an ostomy bag all over their victims, to hide "test substances" in a passenger's carryon at the X-ray without telling them and threatening them with arrest as a joke, to demand that elderly invalid cancer patients stand up out of their wheelchairs and maintain an absolutely-still surrender position in the Nude-O-Scope if they "want to fly today" - all without a shred of accountability or human decency.
WTF happened to my country?!?
