Default Flight Attendants Threatening Passengers With Criminal Charges

Interesting article on Gadling:
Flight attendants threaten passengers with criminal charges more often

Everything from "revealing" clothing to fighting families, and passengers filming passengers

One more reason why I don't want to take any flights at all... Not only the more hassles and complications, but also airports treat every passenger as a potential criminal. Just think about a simple check in: security checks, queues, unpacking and repacking your hand luggage, also nowadays you don't only empty your pockets but have to take off belts and shoes as well... all in a rush and a faceless big brother feel. If it continues this way, next step gonna be a strip with a bunghole examination at the end!

However, you can simply drive through borders by 120km/h! (or a bit more! )

The US is already rolling out the strip search machine. I'm guessing it will be mandatory eventually...
