In my opinion, what makes the whole airport security process a farce is
having travelers going out of the UNITED STATES submit to ridiculous
processes when NO attempt is being made to check travelers flying INTO the
country at foreign airports.
Yep, witnessed this myself.
Then at Christmas time, my niece coming east from Montana had several
connecting flights. The packages that she had wrapped were unwrapped at the
first airport. She was supplied with new wrapping paper. At the next
airport she had to unwrap the same packages. She was supplied with new
wrapping paper. Well, at the third and last airport she just said the heck
with it and waited until she got here to wrap the gifts she had brought.
You would almost think that they could have given her a tag with just a
number or other ID, or something that could not be removed without damaging
the paper and just sent her on the way at the first airport.
