so, right after 9/11 i had to fly every 8 weeks for medical treatment. and somehow SLC put me on their Suspicious Travelers List because they're creeps in Utah. They put a mark on my ticket that indicated me for extra searches every time i flew (until i yelled at the TSA and told them I was flying for medical treatment and threatened to sue them for harassment. i wasn't, i didn't want a lawsuit, but it got the searches to stop). they'd toss my bags and pat me down at security and sometimes also at the gate. every fucking time i flew, because i was too deathly ill to stand up for myself.
never got that treatment in SFO.
