Since September 11, 2001, airport security measures in the United States have greatly intensified. Some argue that the largest number of Americans have been affected in the post-9/11 world by the nation's airport security changes. These changes include:
• required full-body scan
• OR required full-body pat down
• smaller quantity of carry-on liquids allowed

PROS:
• Increased sense of security for many travelers
• Fewer terrorist attempts
• Full-body scans are much quicker than pat-downs (15-30 seconds)
• Employs many people through the TSA

CONS:
• Lengthy security procedures if searched extensively
• Some travelers often feel they are searched extensively without cause
• Many feel violated by full-body scans and pat-downs
• Security checkpoints in other countries are not the same, so prevention only works in one direction
• Racial profiling
• Technology is still not sufficient enough to detect all possible weapons

What did we learn?
• a lot of discontent with airport security is publicized, but doesn't represent sentiments of the population as a whole
• Many of those who have been on an airplane since 9/11 have not cut-back due to new security measures
• The predominant population of America believes that while some of the security measures are invasive, they are worth the added protection against terrorist and other attacks
