  1. Airport Security Survey Grace Collins Emily Maxwell Christy English

  2. Since September 11, 2001, airport security measures in the United States have greatly intensified. Some argue that the largest number of Americans have been affected in the post-9/11 world by the nation's airport security changes. These changes include: • required full-body scan • OR required full-body pat down • smaller quantity of carry-on liquids allowed

  3. PROS: • Increased sense of security for many travelers  •  Fewer terrorist attempts •  Full-body scans are much quicker than pat-downs (15-30 seconds) • Employs many people through the TSA

  4. CONS: • Lengthy security procedures if searched extensively • Some travelers often feel they are searched extensively without cause • Many feel violated by full-body scans and pat-downs • Security checkpoints in other countries are not the same, so prevention only works in one direction • Racial profiling • Technology is still not sufficient enough to detect all possible weapons

  21. What did we learn? • a lot of discontent with airport security is publicized, but doesn't represent sentiments of the population as a whole •  Many of those who have been on an airplane since 9/11 have not cut-back due to new security measures • The predominant population of America believes that while some of the security measures are invasive, they are worth the added protection against terrorist and other attacks
