Grandma needs to grow up.

Oh, really? What if someone attempts to hijack a plane with a weapon hidden in a bodily orifice? Will you then be prepared to drop your drawers and moon for an inspection when boarding a plane? Feeling up little old ladies, retired teachers from Wisconsin, no less, does absolutely nothing to enhance airline security. The terrorists are almost always young Muslim men.

Wasting tax dollars by conducting a blanket assault on the vast majority of citizens who obviously fit no terrorist profile isn't just wrong, it's stupid. And, as has been pointed out before, no one is going to get away with hijacking an airplane in the future anyway, under any circumstances, as every able bodied person on that plane will be out of their seats and onto the SOB(s) immediately, at the first sign of any such attempt.
