On a recent trip to TX everyone except those wearing sandals had to take
their shoes off for Xraying before hitting the metal detector.

You are not required to take off your shoes but asked as a precaution to
the metal detector sensing the steel shanks in shoes and requiring a
slowdown in the process of the security line. The law is the law, know it

You may politely refuse to take off your shoes. Perhaps the surface to walk
on is filthy or whatever. It is your choice. You have rights under a
tyranny.

You make the choice not someone else.
