It is bad enough that we have to be virtually strip searched just to fly on an airplane these days, but more and more venues are conducting security searches of their patrons before allowing entrance. In my neck of the woods, all of the major concert venues now search all purses and handbags, pat everyone down, AND run a metal detecting wand over you. Its kind of rediculous, but I can't say I blame them. The sad, thing is, if someone is determined to sneak a weapon in and hurt someone, they will still be able to. 102889@blogcritics.org Sun, 12 Dec 2004 09:36:58 EST
