Is Airport Security Really Necessary?

A: Airport security is a part of travel these days. Whew! we're finally through airport security. Such scrutiny! I felt like a criminal!
B: Security is really necessary these days. I'm glad we have it. It makes me feel safe flying.
A: But we're not safe. That's why they keep adding new things to the security process. Did you see those full-body scanners?
B: They make the security check really thorough, so it's OK with me.
A: It's not OK with me! Airport security is way too strict now. No one but passengers can go to the gates.
B: So?
A: So, I miss the days when my parents or friends could just meet me right when I got off the plane.
In many airports, friends can meet us in baggage claim. That's just as good.
B: I still feel like all the security violates my rights.
A: Well, they have to keep everybody safe. If there weren't bad people out there, we wouldn't have security.
B: I know. But I'm not a bad person!
A; You think only bad people should go through security? You think you can tell a bad person just by looking at them. The authorities need to treat everyone the same. That's only fair.
B: Maybe you are right. But I still don't like it!
A: I don't think the authorities enjoy making people jump through all the security hoops.
B: They're just trying to improve the process.
A: How?
B: Well, in some airports, frequent travelers have a special line now that's faster. And soon people won't have to take off their shoes.
A: Well, that's an improvement. But why can't innocent people walk through the metal detector and be done with it? I mean. is a woman with a baby or an elderly couple really going to carry a gun or a bomb? Come on! They're not suspicious
B: If authorities didn't X-ray everyone's carry-ons, then terrorist would start to use people like that to harm plane and passengers.
A: I guess you're right. Thorough the securities is the best prevention.
B: And the authorities need a method of checking the contents of people's bags, if there wasn't one, people could take all kinds of danger things onto the plane.
A: I know, I know, but I still don't like strangers going through my stuff.
B: When you choose to travel by plane, you give up your right to privacy to keep everyone safe.
A: I guess the world isn't a safe place anymore, I can't change that, so I'll have to tolerate to security check.
