It's not an "unreasonable search" to frisk people at an airport or any other secure event.

Grow the fuck up. You either submit to a search, no or no one gets searched and then it's a free for all for anyone who wants to hijack a plane. I'm not worried about terrorists; I'm worried about Bob who lost his job six months ago, was denied unemployment, his wife left him, and he was just evicted from his house... A single gun man on a domestic flight in the US will have the undivided attention of the entire world.
