I'm completely opposed to random selection and/or 100% participation.

That's too bad, MB. I strongly disagree. And that's very easy for you to say, a white woman.

FTR, a child could be just as reasonably strapped with explosives these days as a grown man (or woman). Terrorism has many different faces and skin colors.

First, a room for privacy should be used in the cases of the pat down and scan. Some secondary measures should be evaluated first: if the metal detector went off because of bobby pins, or a boy with a heart transplant who has his tags, that should go into considering what is reasonable to continue the process and search.
