I don't see my right to free movement, right to refuse a warrantless search or naked images of my wife...all of which was taken on my last trip through BWI.

Standard camping equipment, but needs to be in checked baggage. He's young, needs to learn this.

This is just Homeland Security trying to justify their existence, but it doesn't pass muster.

Can I get a big, "HO HUM"?

I don't think they cared about your wife or the pictures.
