Now that's who you ought to be picking up, not patting innocent people down, as if they had cocaine or were a terrorist. I know there's a fine line between safety and privacy, but the bigger problem is that these TSA agents seem to take pleasure in patting people down, invading their privacy, and are very unempathetic towards the public. Human nature says "I resent having my privacy invaded", and they are very unfriendly and intimidating, while they could instead be saying "We just want to make sure you are safe. We know it seems crazy, and if you could make sure you're safe without a pat down, we would, but we can't." Oh no! They are strict, stern, and mean, ranting and raving at people in some cases. In Orlando, my dad went off, and they stopped at nothing to be as invasive as possible, while he went off at Dulles, and they didn't do that. They said something like "We're stricter here than they are there". If they could make you undress, I wouldn't put that past them. They refuse to be diplomatic in their approach. I'm pretty sure it's the same way at O'Hare, and all the premier airports in the United States.
