Answer 1

If that's what it takes, yes. I'm sick and tired of being held hostage to terrorists. They've managed to take the fun out of flying. They've changed our world, in a very bad way. What a waste of our resources. Their intentions are sinister. We must use the means at our disposal and not worry about political correctness. Tough line for an extremely difficult situation.

Answer 2

I support it. It's like when you're travelling near the Mexico border, the checkpoints look at your face and decide whether to stop and check for documentation or not. Most people who cross the border illegally are Mexicans just how most people who try to blow up planes are Muslims. They are easy to spot. That doesn't mean they should be denied access to the plane, it just means they get searched a little more.
