I can't stand it. It's PLAIN OUT STUPID. Anyone can pay to not be searched?!?! That's idiotic!! How hard do you think it is for a terrorist group to come up with $85, give it to some guy with a spotless record. Or more likely BLACKMAIL someone, who has family in that area, who has a spotless record, and threaten to kill his family if he doesn't do it. Then have him walk on through knowingly unchecked (cause he's a paying non threat) with a bomb and take down a plane... STUPID STUPID STUPID. SEARCH EVERYONE! or search no one. it's just as effective, sure checking most or nearly all will catch a few people, but it always leaves the possibility open that the one guy they didn't search had the bomb. So either way you're taking your chances.
As for the warantless search comment.. NYC stop and frisk policy, was what i was referencing to. "Pay the police $50, and not be randomly searched for no reason". It's basically extortion and has nothing to do with your safety.
