Could the TSA solution be simple as having flights
for people who are opposed to pat-downs and having flights for those in favor of pat- downs. Sort of like the express checkout at the grocery store. Let people sign something saying that they're flying at their own risk and are willingly boarding a plane where the other passengers haven't gone through a scanner or pat down. Let those in favor go through the scanners and pat-downs. That way everyone will be happy.

4. Yeah well it's better than hearing people bitching without even attempting to offer a solution to
detect explosives hidden in undergarments.

2. A perfect market solution,
except for when these planes fall out of the sky and crash onto my car/house/business, my private property rights have been violated.

5. Ah, I live under the approach pattern for MSP. I'd prefer that an
airplane not fall on my house. Thanks. And I'm not the only one living under an approach path. If you've flown, you've flown over many homes and workplaces.
