I just went through one of those invasive airport screenings where they touch you like you're being admitted to a prison. I'm a male and a veteran and even I felt very uncomfortable, not just with the manner they used (imperious, pushy, invasive, demeaning) but with how they were touching and groping. I couldn't help but think if you touch people all day long like that, get that up close and in their face, they could easily be the vectors for a spread of contamination. IN FACT, what if the weapon was a bio-type impregnated on the clothing of the person trying to spread it? What if that person made sure he was singled out for the up close and personal treatment?

We are fucked, truly, if anyone really wanted to fuck us.
