Mainly because you have some type of metal implant or medical device which you can't remove before you go through the metal detector. Everybody thinks they are safe because we 1% are patted down...have they forgotten? The shoe bomber went through a metal detector no problem that is why we take off our shoes now. The underwear bomber went through a metal detector no issues. That is why they are "touching our junk now". But they are only touch the junk of people who set off the metal detector.....think about it. Who has the makings of a bomb in his or her pants? Any metal parts? If not then BOOM!!!
Fly safety this holiday season...I am driving. Go Buffs Beat the Huskers.

Have you noticed that the people who are standing behind the TSA and this new security, WHICH IS A VIOLATION OF THE FOURTH AMENDMENT, are the liberals in the news. Chris Matthews on his show railed about the opposition of these new procedures, and claimed the protesters are stirred up by the Right Wing extremists. His support of these procedures, he said, is that Obama would get blamed for a terrorist getting through security.
Chris Matthews is the same man who a few years ago screamed bloody murder about warrantless wiretapping that was authorized by the Patriot Act, but never utilized.
By the way, you did know that the Patriot Act was penned by Joe Biden. It's all coming full circle.
Once the Fourth Amendment is effectively rendered obsolete by our acquiescence to the governments implementation of continued and escalating security protocols, can we consider ourselves "free Americans"? Can we continue to expect privacy in our personal life? Do you really think that they only want this much intrusion into our lives and then, "that's it"?
The only way for the Socialist/Communists to advance their agenda to the next level is to eat away at our views of "personal freedom" and "personal privacy" and "rights of the individual". This is only the beginning of the incremental eradication of the American ideal.
All on the pretext of our "safety" and "security".

P.S. I'm also driving this holiday season and for all my traveling in the foreseeable future until this abominable incursion into our personal privacy is eliminated. My future traveling dollars will now be spent on gasoline, restaurants and hotels. This should make those who say "YOU DON'T LIKE IT, DON'T FLY" happy, as they continue to have themselves and their children photographed naked and probingly groped.
