I’ll never board a plane again—for any reason....it’s as simple as that.
It’s very invasive, totally invasive search and seizure. They give you an ‘insignificant’ dose of radiation? Are all the machines REALLY going to be operated by trained radiationists? Are they going to be monitored for safety? For if they are working correctly? And is the government going to pay for your medical treatments if YOU happen to be the one who gets cancer from it? Because they mandated it?
The Marxist idiots in DC are shredding the Constitution bit by bit. They should be mandated to be on the receiving end of everything they are dishing out to We the People.
And bit by bit they are heating the water in the pot, so the frogs won’t notice.
How often are games won by the defense? Because that is what we are doing, playing the defense. Muslim terrorists turn planes into bombs and blond-haired, blue-eyed, busty white girls get frisked. Shoe bomber? Everybody has to take of their shoes. Underwear bomber? X-ray’s for three year olds, and all liquids must be in 1 oz. containers and all containers encloses in a 1 quart clear plastic bag. Ink toner bomb? Butch Napolitano wisely prohibits all ink toner cartridges over 16 oz. on planes.
Every “security measure” we have is in response to something. Let’s try something original and actually frisk the people who are most likely to do this? Did I read correctly that Muslims can “opt out” of pornovision at the airport because it violates their religion?
Any TSA worker who wasn't already a pervert when s/he accepted the position will surely become one after freely groping breasts and genitals all day, every day. What sane person would agree to frequently fondle strangers' genitals as a condition of their employment?
The situation is FUBAR.
I think its been orchestrated to generate public hysteria fueled by certain cases. And its been proven that Soros was involved in this by getting a billion dollar check from Obama to pay for all of these machines.
Its no wonder Glenn Beck is after Soros so hard, and I hope America realizes that this man only profits from our discomfort.
The boss’ wife thought she’d do us all a favor, so she’s brought in a massage guy every Friday. She asked me why I’ve never gotten a free massage from him. I told her that for as long as I live, there ain’t another man gonna be rubbing on me.
You can also bet I’m never gonna let another man grope me at the airport either. I’ll just drive.
Instead, we've made it into another government monstrosity where grandmothers are subject to near body cavity screening levels, lest someone feel offended that everyone’s not subject to the same screening level.
This has never been about flight safety. For everything that has been done, we've still had a panty-bomber. There has never been a reported incident where a terrorist was stopped by TSA screening.
It is like everything else the federal government does: a complete and utter failure.
Worse, the lack of training the TSA has demonstrated time and time again at spotting and dealing with real threats will be thousands more ‘false positives’ and referrals to more intensive screening and searching, because TSA agents can't figure out that nail files and clippers aren't the threat, Muslim men are. That No-Fly lists only inconvenience the innocent, as the guilty cross the border from Mexico with impunity, and domestic threats simply pick up fake ID.
Electro-strip-search Janet Napolitano and publish the pictures NOW!
Well, it is silly to think that We the People might be the one's with the right to decide this issue.
TSA: (T)heatrics (S)luggishness (A)pathy.
Want to get rid of the TSA? Either through legislation or policy, allow a hold-harmless defense for commercial travellers who help subdue some a-hole who desperately needs it, whether on planes, trains or any form of public transportation.
I travel 40+ weeks a year and would *love* for some goober to try something within reach of me - regardless of the aforementioned legislation. I just think the legislation would publicly and officially serve notice that commercial travel is no longer easy pickings for dirt-bag towel-heads inclined to pursue jihad. I also would hope the legislation would cover the occasional need to remind jerks that a plane is also a “NO DRUNK & STUPID” zone.
If we can’t get rid of the TSA, then we need to PROFILE for suspects openly and with vigor! Profiling has been in use ever since the first peace-keeper thought to ask the question, “What did the bad-guy look like?” There is not a single thing wrong with profiling. If you don’t like that accurate profiling singles out a certain race, then the members of that race need to start policing themselves or encouraging better behavior among their race.
It’s not my fault that recent history overwhelming suggests that the current terrorist threat is some 15 to 55 year-old brown asian who is devoted to a militant interpretation of islam (spit be upon his mo-HAM-id). If the muzzies don’t like it - then *DO* something about it! Clean up your own house! Take back your “religion of blow-you-to-pieces” and reform it!
I swear, political-correctness has turned into a suicide pact!

And do the TSA agents have to pass a security background check?
TSA Scanners:
Possible health effects
Millimeter wave radiation and radio frequency radiation in general is not inherently carcinogenic (unlike X-rays and ultraviolet radiation), but exposure to lower frequencies of microwaves have demonstrated an increased risk of cancer and faster rates of tumor progression.[10]
A study conducted by Boian S. Alexandrov and colleagues at the Center for Nonlinear Studies at Los Alamos National Laboratory in New Mexico[11] performed mathematical models how terahertz fields interact with double-stranded DNA, showing that, even though involved forces seem to be tiny, nonlinear resonances (although much less likely to form than less-powerful common resonances) could allow terahertz waves to “unzip double-stranded DNA, creating bubbles in the double strand that could significantly interfere with processes such as gene expression and DNA replication”.[
BAD JUJU!
DO NOT SUBMIT OT THE TYRANNY!!!
Protest, protest, protest.

Remember the TSA is NOT about safety. It is about intimidation.
