    “if you’re unhappy about having your face scanned, opt out and make a painful process even more painful!”

    I get what they’re saying, but sometimes it just isn’t with the effort. I moved 1300 miles away from my family (single, no kids) so I fly pretty frequently now. I can get through Fort Lauderdale airport, which is pretty big in ten minutes from the curb to my gate…and that’s with like 50-100 people in line with me.

    I’m also a 38 year old white guy so it’s a US citizen with no criminal record, so that makes it easier compared to someone that looks Middle Eastern. My friends are Italian-American, but look Middle Eastern and have definitely been “randomly selected” before though.
