The United States of Panic

Look, Johnny doesn't fly so either you can call him a hypocrite or the fact he doesn't fly makes him the perfect arbiter on this topic.Newark's C Terminal was shut down for most of the day yesterday because one person somehow walked past someone he shouldn't have without being checked out or given the once over. This caused everyone in charge to lose their ever loving minds. Of course they didn't lose those minds until a full TWO HOURS later when that's was when they decided to empty the terminal and have a do over over access to the terminal, even those already on their planes.

It's simple people, put in subway type entrances and exists to make sure those who have passed the turnstiles have either cleared security or they haven't. Once you walk out of the turnstile you must then pass through security again. Also, flying public, get over your fear of these body scanners. So what, it's not really a privacy issue, your doctor takes your body x-rays and you don't complain then, get over yourselves and don't be prudes and maybe, just maybe things can start running a little smoother at the old aeropuerto.
