My solution is to frisk everyone, from President to peon. In the interest of security. Nothing else. No-one should be trusted. What prevents someone from misusing his/her exemption from being frisked to do something illegal and dangerous? What prevents a terrorist who knows one of those who’re exempted from frisking to use them as a messenger for a dangerous illegal act?
Jagdish makes a case about frisking everyone at the airport irrespective of their rank or status. Although this may seem fine in theory but I’ve a problem in treating everyone as suspects and generally fostering a climate of fear.
