Interesting article, pretty scary......http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/11863165/
I flew back with three other folks Sunday from Puerto Rico, arrived at the airport, and was upset to see the line so long. We did not have our tickets, we needed to check our backs and pick up the e-tickets. It was at least a 2 hour wait. A airport baggage handler took all of our bags, and told us "you take care of me, I will take care of you". He then took my brother's passport, and never asked to see ours. He came back 2 minutes later with our tickets. My brother slid him some cash, and we went past the line through the terminal. Puerto Rico is a US territory. Security?? Very little.
