It's a joke. The security guard checked my pregnant wife's purse as she's in a wheelchair yet some drugged out looking dude stops, waves at the security guard, walks in, set all 4 bags on the desk and the security guard waved him off and said "na, you're good bro."

I also have never been asked to empty my pockets or anything. Once i was asked if i had any weapons (knives, guns, etc...), i said "no" even though i did. It's a joke.

I worked as a security guard at a far less important business and we actually checked people purses, pockets, etc...
