TSA doesn't *want* your cooperation?

[Robert Slade <rmslade () shaw ca>]

Amidst the furor over the "enhanced screening," I missed this one until I caught up on a back issue of the RISKS-Forum 
Digest:

http://www.nbcsandiego.com/news/local-beat/Passenger-Chooses-Strip-Down-Over-Pat-Down-109872589.html

"When a San Diego man opted out of security screening using the Advanced Imaging Technology (AIT) at Lindbergh Field 
Friday, he stripped down to his underwear in an attempt to avoid the pat-down procedures."

"Wolanyk was arrested for refusing to complete the security process" even though he didn't refuse.

More troubling is the fact that "A woman, identified by Harbor police as Danielle Kelli Hayman,39, of San Diego was 
detained for recording the incident on a phone."
