If you don't like it, you can either roll over and accept that blatant invasion of privacy and the continual destruction of the Constitution in the name of "security."

Some people just lay down and take these assaults as "a necessary evil" yet it's been proven time and time again that the TSA is ineffective. Seen the recent videos that show how easy our required shot of radiation is to fool?
TSA body scanners proven ineffective by citizen journalist The Right Scoop -

It'd be much easier for a terrorist to hide items in areas in their body other than down under their balls. Would you people tell everyone to "suck it up" if boarding a plane required random "cavity screenings"?

Nowhere in the Constitution does it say you have a right to fly. It does grant you the right to bear arms,using your flawed logic this would enable all passengers to board a plane unchecked and carrying a concealed weapon...brilliant.
Save your pennies and buy a private jet,otherwise save your breath for something more constructive.

Alright lemmings. Lets see what hoops we have to jump through next. I for one am ready for another Tea Party..not a tea bag party.

Flying to chicago tom. and then San Antonio. I bet I have no problems and my boys will be untouched.

Back to Dangles point, you don't have the right to fly.

I think the TSA is a lot more effective that you're giving them credit for. The very presence of security alone will inhibit a lot of threats. The liquid rule, shoe rule and pat downs while appearing silly are actually probably going slow down a lot of potential attacks as the bad guys are forced to spend more time and resources planning than executing.

Some argue we should move towards a behavioral profiling system like Israel uses...but I'm not sure that would scale to size the American air system.

If they did I could just see some of you guys asking why it's any of their right to know where you were going :devil2:

This has already started. You must've missed my comment about the required interrogation at Logan before getting to the security gate. Like I said above, it's only a matter of time before we're randomly required to squat down and spread our cheeks.

They interrogated you because you look shady. Most of us have no problems getting through security.:uhuh:

Isn't that the same as a "Happy Ending"?

I've only been further inspected a couple times, one of which included the full rub and tug treatment due to what they called a "false positive" during my shot of radiation. I don't think a young, clean-cut white guy dressed business casual is high up on their "suspicious looking" list.

Just because I'm not the one getting my butt crack fingered before every flight doesn't mean watching the complete, unnecessary erosion of civil liberties around me is any less disgusting - especially when the invasive processes have been demonstrated to be ineffective.

What civil liberty are you talking about?

He's quite the alarmist, huh? Civil liberties being eroded? Maybe he's upset that they haven't taken him in the private room for the fingering of the butt crack.

One of the guys I worked with for thirty years checked every crotch. It pained me to see it until he found one POS hiding a loaded .32 pistol up his a s s.

I travel a lot and never really have any issues and no nut grabbing (I’m sure most of those guys hate doing it anyway). Only problem I ever had was when a TSA guy in Orlando dropped my laptop during a swab test. Thing was toast and I lost the hard drive and all my work stuff. Honest mistake and not intentional.

More proof that the TSA is out of control.
 

3-Year-Old Boy In Wheelchair Harassed By TSA Alex Jones' Infowars: There's a war on for your mind!


It supposed this is neccsary to ensure the safety and freedom of America.

im with you

Me too..

there's a reason I'm a captain, not a pilot... I can swim, not fly...

Duke, do you think they did this because they enjoy it? They want to harrass a disabled child.....

So I just got to SFO after 2 days of USAirways &^&%^$% ups. I went thru 4 TSA checks. No problems. Dress like you should be there and they pretty much leave you alone.

The new millimeter wave machines in the screening areas are certainly reducing the amount of patdowns. A real shame because with the new hip I was getting a lot of backhand. What happens when you get measured for a suit or tux and pop a rod?Does that make me gay?

Na Chris, I think you just really like your new suit.:rotf2:

Spence get wood when he buys a new suit, new shoes or a new pocketbook.
