    So... no.

    I did a couple projects using JQuery about 2 years ago and need a refresher. Was poking around online but I was wondering if anyone knew any particuarly good references.

    That doesn't make any sense.

    How?

    I'll try to break it down into steps:

    1. You are told to get into the scan, you deny them permission to scan you.
    2. Guard informs you that you're not allowed into area without scan.
    3. You ask if there would be an option other than scan.
    4. Guard informs you there is not.
    5. You go home, without being patted down because the guard doesn't have any reason to pat you down/it would infringe on your civil rights.

    If a person refusing to be scanned is not a security risk, then there's no reason not to let them into the security area and just pick someone else to be scanned. The effect is the same.

    Yeah, if a person is a security risk it doesn't make sense to let them wander around without checking - but it would be an infringement on their civil rights to randomly accost them and demand they allowed you to pat them down. It's just very important this is maintained.

    Then why is refusing to go through the scanner justification for not being permitted on your flight? Either it's suspicious or it isn't. If it is, then it must be accepted that the security forces have cause to check that person out further. If it isn't, then there isn't any reason not to let them on the flight.

    well they could do that anyway

    without first visiting security

    anyway what you're saying is blatantly illegal

    if you go to the checkpoint and say "hey I don't want you looking through my things"

    they can't say "sorry but you can't leave. We have to."

    they say "Okay, go home."

    It's just airport policy. You mistakenly believe that any form of sanity must be behind the reasoning that leads to any form of company policy.

    Airport policy: if not scanned then not on flight. Not exceptions.

    they can have all cause they want it's still not legal to just search people because you feel like it

    these people are civilians, remember

    EDIT: Also, because alternative two is just ridiculous. "Hey do you mind getting scanned?" "Yes." "Ok then have a nice flight"
