SM Baguio, which has many entrances, with restaurants on the outer rim, subjects a person to frisking and bag search (as if!) everytime. In fact, for a time, they went one step further: cigarettes were to be left with the guard when watching a movie because, as they so idiotically explained. 'smoking was not allowed inside!' Can you imagine then the argument that ensued! Not only do they violate you by frisking you at every turn, they insult your intelligence, too! And guess, what, with such pithy and ineffective security measures, I actually feel unsafe when I am in the mall! I so agree with you, Speedy.

The security guards always go through the motions of taking a peep inside the car and the boot and I always say to myself that someone carrying a bomb or ammunition would know better than to put these inside the car. They would stash them elsewhere in the car. Sometimes the guards are just busy texting which tells us that the security check is just a sham, to show compliance to some superior but not really meant to ensure our safety.

One of my friends trains those dogs for a living. According to him one dog can smell c4 (supposedly the base material of the bomb in glorietta) from 50 yards away. What more if it was right next to the car. Those dogs aren't being used properly, and it strikes me as mainly a "for show" kind of thing. Then again, who's to say those are truly bomb detection dogs?
