As much as I can understand the inconvenience of being searched, I don't get your uproar about it. Aside random searches and quotas, yes you will be more at risk because of your age as guess what, many older folks are used as mules and it is a commonly known fact, especially coming back from Mexico and South/Central America. It used to be more of an issue with the 18-30 crowd but nowadays a lot of seniors are used to smuggle stuff into the US and Canada. I remember when working for the airlines making bets as to who would get searched and we were pretty accurate at it and this was many moons ago. Now terrorism as been added to the list of potential threats but often it is just the same old good reason you will get pulled. Get used to it!
