America’s net pat down procedure isn’t going over well, but at least it looks like there hasn’t been any major flight delays caused by a groundswell movement of pissed-off passenger types.
This whole subject of personal freedoms threatened by a need for enhanced national security is partly being pushed by the mainstream media looking for sensational headlines.
According to a recent poll, 71% of frequent flyers aren’t protesting the enhanced past downs. The protests seem to be coming more from holiday infrequent flyers.
Airports see few delays despite planned protests

“Lines moved smoothly at airports around the country Wednesday despite a loosely organized campaign urging air travelers to boycott the controversial full-body scanners at security checkpoints.”
