I don’t think that disney is foolish enough to pretend to have security…What a liability that would be ??

I think that within those Awnings… there are scanners of some kind….the security people just slow everyone down enough to get scanned. They certainly have the technology and they are not going to take chances with anyone. In front of each awning there is a warning sign,stating that there are small amounts of things on premise that may be danger. (don’t remember the exact wording).

“…“What’s in this?” I said it was some snacks. They believed me and put it down. How is that security?”

The person who asked you that question does not care what’s in the box (well… unless you say it’s a bomb :-) ). What this persons wants to see is your reaction. Your reaction is more telling to this person and he or she is trained to analyze it.

I can’t stand the place. Most of the things there are boring, and there’s nothing on TV at night. Granted i don’t watch TV at all these days except for heroes, it’s not that great.

I worked at disney in security for 6 years i left about 6 months ago. the people checking bags are not security and have not been trainded to look for anything there main gate ticket takers. they were given the budget after 9/11 and they will not give that budget money back to security. makes you feel real safe right.

I suppose it might make some people feel better. But most of us with brains know we don’t feel any safer because of the search… and the search is just annoying.

@biff
A little off-topic, but that’s cool. So you got one?

When I went to the Imperial War Museum a couple of days ago, the same happened to me. The simple fact it is would take far too long to do it properly (especially for a free museum). I guess it it just a detterent.

I guess it’s just there to make people feel safe. I can’t see anyone especially wanting to blow up disneyland, it wouldn’t be a great ideological victory for anyone to blow up a bunch of children, but I’m sure there are some parents who are really concerned with the prospect of someone suicide bombing mickey.
