Are you ready for the pat down system to come to malls and hotels in the US?

Question

How far is too far?


The United States is stepping up security at “soft targets” like hotels and shopping malls, as well as trains and ports, as it counters the evolving Al-Qaeda threat, a top official said Sunday.

A year after a foiled plot to bomb a US-bound passenger plane, Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano told CNN’s “State of the Union” program that other places and modes of transportation must now be scrutinized.

“We look at so-called soft targets — the hotels, shopping malls, for example — all of which we have reached out to in the past year and have done a fair amount of training for their own employees,” Napolitano said.

I took 4 flights in the past week and did not have any patdowns, and in facts did not see anyone getting patted down.   I think the people here are exaggerating the problem and just want to complain about the possible inconvenience.   Even in the airports where the patdowns are done more often, it still does not affect most passengers.  I do not think it would bother me much..   A strip search, might though.
