I understand that it's for safety purposes. I understand the need to step up security after 9/11. That's why I was more than happy to oblige, but this woman was just unbelieveable. I was answering her questions, I was doing exactly what she told me to do, but she kept accusing me of lying to her and trying to hide things from her. I eventually had to pull my pockets inside out to prove that I wasn't lying to her about them. The only thing that I wasn't entirely cooperative with was turning around and facing the lineup of passengers with my pants totally open. When I asked if I could do up my pants before turning around, she said no and grabbed my arm and turned me around. By the time I left that checkpoint, she practically had me convinced that I was a criminal and doing something horribly wrong.
And as for my belt, I have worn that belt tons of times through security and never once had that much of a problem with it. I have had to undo it before, but never my pants as well and i was always allowed to do it up before turning around.
