DHS, protecting you.

Does it make sense for octogenarians in wheelchairs to get the same scrutiny as young men?

I'm not sure what you mean by profiling in this context, but we probably agree.

How long before laptops all have clear cases?
How much do the security guards in Israel get paid vis a vis the "dopes" in the TSA? Perhaps we get what we pay for.
