No it's not. Would crime go up, down, or stay the same if we had to get strip searched before entering airplanes?

The types of crime that would happen in an airplane would already be identifiable due to its constrained cabin, so I don’t understand the comparison.

Let’s use your example for say a concert. Is checking bags worth it? Would crime go up if there was no bag check? Why or why not?

I mean, that depends on whether you consider the warrantless, disproportionate search a crime.

It should be!
