What proof is there that 90% of what people 'allege' is true?
Sorry, but I've had to scratch out a living in the private sector where they expect me to do actual work.
I don't know what your point is, but without proof there's no case. Surely if this happened the way the lady said it happened there would be scores of witnesses and plenty of security camera footage to back it up. All we have so far are allegations.
these are the kind of thing's we should expect when we spend ALL of our time playing.we seem to wan't other's to
defend truth,while we play.shame on us.....
Me too. I won't even go to the airport. There is no way I could keep my mouth shut around the kinf of brownshirts they have there.
Anyone who thinks that post-9/11, you can hijack an airplane with a knife is living in a fantasy world. An awful lot of supposedly freedom-loving folks right here, on this site are supporting this lunacy.
The trouble is, you can't really do anything about it, because the government has shown time and time again, that power is all they are concerned about. They have the guns and are not hesitant at all to use them.
Why are you skeptical?
Have you flown since 9/11?
TSA=Time Standing Around.
What a bunch of twits.
Actually no, since people are not grouped together in such concentrations at the local mall.
In February, my wife and I were flying to Cozumel on a chartered airline. Since all of the chartered flights to Cozumel and other locations in Mexico were departing at the same time, there were over 1,000 people standing in line for the TSA security check.
It was a solid mass of people and only 10 feet away from the front entrance. Any terrorist could have walked in, placed a bomb, and walked out without even being questioned.
This is how the TSA has helped keep us safe!
Today, the TSA is no longer looking for bombs in the airline luggage, but are spending their time looking for prohibited items like cigarette lighters or butter knives.
This insanity must stop.
Actually it will, but only AFTER a few hundred people have been murdered at a TSA security check point.
Isn't almost ALL cases allegations ... we'll see what transpires.
You are exactly right. Demo-commie got caught and should be held accountable. Maybe she thought as a member of a "teachers union", rules did not apply to her, but only the uneducated. NSNR
Don't forget to mention the "Bush Can Do No Wrong" crowd.
They are the ones who almost worship every thing the man says or does.
You can summarize that with one famous quote:
"LETS ROLL!"
Today, the American citizens will fight back, even if it will cost them their own lives.
I read the article, that's why. It provides no proof that any of this actually happened, no corraboration, no verification, nothing. And the things that the woman said make me think that she's a lefty with a political agenda, like this:
"This is not the way my country should be treating me," she said. My concern is that if that's the way they're treating American citizens I would hate to think how they're treating other people. It's crazy."
This type of thuggery is SOP for the JBT's who man the TSA, thanks to the WOT.
I used to call 'em Bushbots, but I've come to think Messianic Republicans fits 'em better. ;o)
I love that attitude...."as long as they are a lefty," (which you are assuming) "then the hell with her rights."
Typical response from a sheep.
My experience has been that there are plenty of those on "our side" who have problems with other nationalities. However, I have always watched how FR monitored those folks and handled them.
Today, I see more and more anti-Bush, anti-Republican garbage being spewed here than ever in my memory.
"This insanity must stop."
OK, now that you've identified this problem what is your proposed solution? Surely, you're not proposing that we eliminate the security checkpoints? After all, once we've done away with these checkpoints, what would keep a terrorist from carrying any number of bombs or weapons onto a commercial aircraft.
Why does she have a Washington driver's license? Looks like she just moved to Iowa. Some of her comments make me think she is a liberal.
That said, if she is not lying about this, it is sad this happened to her.
On the other hand, she brought a knife. What did she expect, a pat on the back?
