Thing to me is, if we start showing them everything and even the things they are not entitled to, where does it stop?

"Sorry, sir but I would like to feel inside your pockets"
"Yes, I know your kid sleeps, but we want you to take it out of the buggy so we can check under it"

etc.. etc..
My grandad did the opposite. He would put on his doiddery air and insist on shwoing the store detective every item in his bag and explaining every tiniest detail. When the store detective cut him short he got into a huff about him asking questions and then not being interested in the answer. Finally the store detective had to summon another store detective and the manager and it took the three of them to make him leave.

This was in the 1980s mind you.

He did the same at customs and used the trick to smuggle quite a bit of alcohol.
