What is your position on National Security.

Here is my story when I reentered this country a week ago from a vacation.

If you ever been through a passport control, you stand in line of hundreds of people eventually make in front of the immigration officer who stands behind a bullet proof glass booth to check your passport. He then looks at you then back at the passport then back at you then back at the passport. Then he asks why did you have a haircut? I said I don't know I felt good about myself.
The next thing they do is have a video camera that compares your pictures to a previous picture of you. They are very skeptical about you!

Meanwhile I am thinking the southern borders of our country have 4 million illegal aliens crossing it with bedroom sets and night tables and we are trying to reenter our country legally and they are asking you tough questions like why where you there or what did you do?
So here you are trying to dodge yourself saying you forgot why and say I don't know it was vacation I had fun I am Sorry! lol

Next thing they were patting down a old lady in a walker suspecting she is a terrorist. lol

So do you believe we should have real security or do you believe our security is good as it is?

I haven't left the country, But I'm sure there's much room for improvement. Being in the security field, I know that political correctness and beurocracy can really screw things up. I also realize the neccesity for strong scrutiny and although it's an inconvenience, It's totally needed.
