So Transportation Sassy Axels asking you isn’t a violation of Hippa and you can tell them to go fly a kite. Or you can tell them you have a bionic hip.

“Class of people” as a legal term generally used in conversations about to equal protection of the laws under the United States constitution.
Profiling on the basis of metal detection is actually a pretty acceptable event, wouldn’t you agree— guns, knives, box cutters, ice picks.

Profiling on the basis of being non-Spanish, male tan and dark haired also should be made acceptable and we would have a lot less problems with the TSA.

[Elwood P. Doud]

Here’s a proposed Governmental-style solution to this incident:
— Make sure the TSA employee in question continues to remain unnamed.
— Threaten anyone who looks at the video with Child Pornography prosecution.
Problem solved!

Clue to the kiddies ~ if you want to get through TSA checks quickly and easily be sure to leave your Moslem parents at home!

[Virginia Ridgerunner]

Yeah, if the issue were not so deadly serious, Bob's PR efforts would otherwise be highly entertaining.

There's another TSA blogger there, a woman TSO named "CarrotTop," who's even denser and more laughable than Bob.

[pepperdog]

They had best do something very soon. Any idiot can see the long screening lines are a great target of opportunity just waiting for some enterprising jihadist to take advantage. Can you imagine the slaughter that could happen in a terminal like O’Hare...and probably on Thanksgiving eve or perhaps Christmas Eve. It is chilling to even think of the consequences of this poorly thought out policy.

[GailA]

What is to stop one of the TSA workers who is a muzie fanatic from going to the rest room, which has no cameras and coming back bombed up and ready to explode themselves?

A lot of victims...more machine gun toting Military like after 9/11, less border control....CHAOS and terror. They are not always after a big body count, chaos and terror works just fine for them.

In other words who is searching the TSA worker before they start to work? And after they come back from break?

How often are they changing those germ riddled gloves? Good way to spread infectious disease.

[Red6]

The TSA is doing more damage for security than good with their idiotic approach to these things.

In the end, they will look like fools, public pressure will make others “think for the TSA” and make them back off, but not before they make all sorts of rules and impose restrictions that actually minimize law enforcements capabilities.

The secret to all of this is that it has to be non intrusive and not be inconvenient. You can screen 100% of the baggage and people are OK with that, but if you dumped it on the floor in front of them and made them repack their luggage in the terminal people would get pissed. The TSA’s approach is invasive/intrusive, perceived as possibly being a health risk and it's very in your face and personal. That the public will reject this was to be expected and now the answer of the TSA is to attempt to “sell the idea” to the public. It won't work.

I wonder, when the TSA was contemplating this idea, did they really look at those people that will be screened, did they confer with the airline and ask what they thought, or did they simply analyze the capabilities of this system, it's cost, training to use etc? Typical government operation. Completely disconnected from reality when being planned, briefed as a success on bubble charts as it's phased in and finally a complete failure in execution because ahhhh ummmmmm, ohhhh the “customer” was forgotten (You know, those people that have to be exposed to this, that pay to fly, that are the purpose of the airports existence, that vote.......). In government, the government becomes the customer.

Now, instead of rethinking this, the answer will be to sell you how great this idea is, that is until through political pressure they are made to back off! lol This is hilarious.

[Doc Savage]

These assholes have their own blog??????????????????????????? Holy Crap!

[GailA]

You are among the list of medical patients requiring this extra security...pace makers, replaced knees, people with rods and pins...and what about women who wear under bras? or it is that time of the month?

They even found hubby’s toe that had a metal rod in it. And that was just with the regular wand. The walk through found the knee. This was post grope in April. But the young Asian girl we sat next to with a home made meal and a METAL fork made it through no sweat. She is a frequent flyer.

[yldstrk]

Au contraire bring your muzzie parents

In fact I think I will wear a burka in order not to get molested like ordinary American pigs.

[Bigh4u2]

"So what’s the point of having “same sex” pat downs again?"

So this 'screener' can touch that little boys rear.

[goat granny]

Hey, I want one of those burka’s. You never have to have a bad hair day ever again...also hides a woman's mustache and chin hairs..

[firebasecody]

Such good little Nazis. “Step into the shower please!” The group think is very alarming.

All of this just so a few muslims won’t complain. Lordy. The irony seems to escape the brainwashed. Just do the terrorist profiling, you idiots!

We all get violated in the name of fairness? Get a grip. What is wrong with these people?

[Virginia Ridgerunner]

I'm glad you re-posted that pic of the little boy with his shirt off, and his pissed-off father standing behind him.

Bob's is arguing this morning that the father voluntarily took the shirt off to help the TSOs and then went away as another satisfied TSA customer.

Dad's body language in both the pic and the original video clearly demonstrate that Bob is full of crap.

[CAluvdubya]

The only reason the boy doesn’t fit the profile is because he was not travelling with Muslim parents.

Which reinforces why profiling would work. Target those that have been proven to want to cause us harm.

Face of the American Taliban Leader

[MichiganConservative]

Any idiot can see the long screening lines are a great target of opportunity just waiting for some enterprising jihadist to take advantage.

Maybe the jihadis are too amused at how we are destroying ourselves to bother?

My proposed solution on about 9/12/2001 was to just hand everyone a billy club when they got on an airplane.

As history has shown, the attempted bombings and hijackings were thwarted by the passengers themselves when they realized it was up to them instead of relying on "the proper authorities".

Looks like Americans are choosing slavery to government over freedom.

What a payoff the jihiadis got. Hijack a few plans. Fly into a couple buildings. Watch Americans scurry in fear for government to protect them. Watch the government oblige by turning the country into a police state.

Disgusting, but predictable. I predicted it.

[a fool in paradise]

"Papers please!" < /fake hollywood movie nazi accent >

Seems it worked for Obama when wanted to attack his critics or those demanding photo ID at the polls.

[Bigh4u2]

Oh definitely, the father does looked ‘pissed’.

I’m willing to bet the dad just didn’t want to make a scene in front of his son.

The first clue that dad was ‘pissed’ is when he removed the shirt to begin with.
