Airport Security Safety or Privacy?

Many people in this world believe that airport security should protect others privacy before safety. In fact, i used to be one of those people until I heard a phenomenal presentation in English class describing the ways that privacy being before safety has ended in a bad way. The attacks on 9/11 killed 2,819 people. Those numbers are mind boggling in my mind. Privacy should not come before safety clearly, because the past shows a clear relation to lack of airplane safety and lost lives. Some people will not fly because they are scared that their lives are in jeopardy. Some on the other hand will not fly because they think that the airport security scanners are too revealing. Security scanners used to show others body's beneath their clothes, and most people did not like that. Some were fine with it because they wanted their safety to come first. Now the US has scanners that do not reveal anything other than what has the potential to be a weapon. People should worry less about their privacy in an airport and more about their safety because being violated will not kill you, but being put on a plane with a crazy guy from Saudi Arabia that has a bomb just might.
