There are thousands of Christian web sites. I will be recommending to Christian webmasters to include a page instructing Christian people to study and memorize the passages in the Bible that insist on modesty and descretion.
If the Muslims can get away with this, then there must be equal protection for anyone with convictions of faith and conscience.
Warning: Professing Christian women who dress scantily when boarding aircraft cannot be expected to be believed by TSA agents (or by us, for that matter).
Those passages on modesty and descretion should be included as well in letters to our elected representatives, to the TSA directly, and to newspaper editors. Quote the entire passages in your letters, don’t merely give the references, because few will actually look them up.
It might also be a good idea to have some of those passages printed on 3X5 cards, signed under the statement, “THIS IS MY CONVICTION OF FAITH AND CONSCIENCE,” and shown to TSA agents at the security check-ins at airports.
I think this quote applies to the current situation better.
“It’s a stinking world because there’s no law and order anymore! It’s a stinking world because it lets the young get on to the old, like you done. Oh, it’s no world for an old man any longer. What sort of a world is it at all? Men on the moon, and men spinning around the earth, and there’s not no attention paid to earthly law and order no more. “
Actually it works this way.
You have a Constitutional Right (the freedom) to fly, in any manner you can procure.
You can also be refused service. That is the Constitutional Right of the pilot to ‘life’.
So........ I wonder how many times they found bombs on 3 year old girls, nuns, and 90 year old wheelchair bound white male Americans?
"Would you rather be blown to bits"....geeze louise. Head in hands.
If not for the PC / SLPC / CAIR / ACLU / CBC interference, we would have these rules posted in airports:
If you can’t read this, we’ll probably search you.
If you are not American, we’ll probably search you.
If you act like you are hiding something, we’ll probably search you.
If you won’t look us in the eyes, we’ll probably search you.
If you look like you are drunk, or act disorderly, we’ll probably search you.
If you look like you are on drugs, we’ll probably search you.
If the dogs bark, we’ll probably search you.
If you are freshly shaved (everywhere), just got back from a strip club, and keep chanting Allah Akbar, we’ll probably search you.
If you interfere with the flight of the plane in any way, we’ll probably shoot you.
Have a nice flight.
my children, ages 13, 15 and 17, fly regularly to visit their mother... so I have to choose between trusting that they really do delete these records or having my kids inappropriately touched. Frankly - deleting the records is not my largest concern - the entire thing is inappropriate.

CAIR’s press release. It’s very reasonable-sounding. I’m printing it out and wearing a hijab if I have to fly.
I think it obvious they do! Seems obvious waxing/shaving is against muzzie law...............
They have a Constitutional responsibility to provide for the common defense.
While airlines can restrict who can use their service, we are talking about the TSA grope-fondle.
And the TSA is a federal agency, beholden to the document that enumerates our freedoms. So, by definition, they do not have the right to restrict them via unreasonable search/seizure.
Now, if this was at a private airport, with private security, following airline rules... you might have a point. But this is at a publicly owned airports, with federal employees.
In case you haven’t read the Constitution, the 4th Amendment speaks thusly about unreasonable search:
“The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.”
I think that we can all agree that searching Grandma and little Mary Ann but ignoring Mohammedans is “unreasonable”. If you can’t agree to that, I suggest you seek medical attention - FAST!
Wow. Just wow. You are really a statist minion.
Thanks for the link. Sorry for the delay in replying.
Well said.
I told my wife about the body scanners, enhanced pat downs, and how Muslims want to be exempt from these measures on religious grounds. I don't think I have ever seen her this angry.
LOL! ... snort ... LOL!
But what would you rather; the indignity of a pat down, or getting blown to bits by a terrorist who got his payload onboard because he didn't get searched?
It's the moslims who are getting out of the searches which equates to complete double standard and extreme hypocrisy in addition to everyone else being subjected to the "indignity of a pat down".
If it's not too much to ask, would you mind sending me, (via FreepMail), links to those pages as well. Thanks in advance for your time.
