Note: I apologize for the lack of detail in this post, but it's meant to be a commentary on something the NYPD could do a better job of. I don't want to give away valuable information to potential terrorists... hence the vagueness.
Over the past 2 years, I've observed how the "random" searches worked in certain subway stations and the NYPD needs to mix it up a bit more. When I wear certain clothing and carry a certain type of bag, I get searched all the time... as many as 4x a week! If I carry a different type of bag, I can go months without getting searched. That to me says, "NOT RANDOM!" It also became pretty obvious which days the NYPD would be present at the station after going through the same routine during my daily commute. We have to keep in mind that the 9/11 terrorists were very patient and thought out many things carefully. The more random we are the better. Aside from mixing up the routine, I think the cops should place their search table a little out of site so people can't scope out the place before entering... and change-up the location too.
