Blog 6: Civil Liberties


Civil Liberties vs. Airport Scanners

Prior 9/11:

·         Rules not as strict

·         Easy and faster getting in and out of airport

·         Kitchen utensils not a big deal

·         We didn’t have full body scanners

·         Safer to fly

 

Post 9/11:

·         There’s a list that tells you what you can pack and what you can’t pack

·         It takes forever to get through security

·         Lots of delays because of security
