You know, this is soooo STUPID!!! HE’S THE PILOT, for crying out loud. He could bring the plane down whenever he wanted to. WHY do they even have to go thru checkpoints??? Unreal, this is so retarded. I gotta ask, when was that stupid bomb dropped??? Unbelievable!
I know it’s a joke - but that doesn’t mean that someone who refuses isn’t going to get a bunch of grief. I was coming back from Paris the day the Brits busted those guys that supposedly had the big airline plot - oh man, the French didn’t mess around during screening.
TSA is useless. Their own check inspections only spot 28% of the test guns the inspectors attempt to pass through TSA inspection.
I once boarded a flight at a major airport while travelling with a retired airline pilot on what is called a “buddy pass/ticket/whatever”.
The TSA Person decided to make me open every box holding every roll of 120 roll film I had in my luggage and camera case. Not the large boxes alone, each roll and then take each roll out of the plastic wrapper, too.
What this recycled ghetto trash didn’t seem to grasp is that if I had been smuggling plastic explosives I could have wrapped the C-4 inside the paper cover on the roll film. She was simply making life difficult for a white passenger and the old white pilot, and she made that clear, egregiously clear.
Worst of all, some of the other pilots knew my friend, as did some of the TSA persons. Not one of them said anything to MS Piggy because that would have exposed them to the charge of “racism motivated actions against a person in two protected classes (black & female).
Were America to simply level an Arab city every time a plane was attacked, the Moslim world would immediately understand and such attacks would cease.
Or, sooner or later, there would be no more Arab cities
“..the last three or four times I had to board a plane I was pulled aside for a pat down by some fat woman who seemed to enjoy her job.”
Gotta have government jobs for fat, old, nasty, lesbians don’t we?
You know, I just thought of something else. After 9/11, IF I were the President, I would have totally shut down ALL muslimes coming into this country, and totally sealed the mexican border indefinitely. I think that would have pretty much solved the problem. And, if any extra security measures would have been implemented, I would have billed Saudi Arabia for every single one of them. As it is now, as some poster previously said, the terrorists won.
“Who is loading the beverage cart, while you strip down to your underwear?”
There you go again - just had to bring up facts, didn’t you?
;-)
How does one expect the public to submit to security “screening” when a PILOT won’t? He set a horrible example, and if he had half a brain, would know this wouldn’t change procedure and at least would not end well! Probably should have given him a sobriety test. I’d fire this jackass immediately!
Entschuludigung, Citizen - Nothing to see here. Your papers, please?
Funny, if not so sad.
And verily, by their fruit shall yee know them - shall they present themselves as an ass, shall ye know them as an ass, and verily, shall they present themselves as a statist, shall ye know them as a statist, so very like the Huckabie...
You hit the nail on the head. For the past nine years, we have tried to save our free society by systematically destroying it. They won, we lost. This is not murder, it is suicide.
I have a relative who has a physical disability, and he is extremely concerned about going through the full body scan.
He has always passed the current X-ray procedure without any problems, but he would be subjected to having intimate details about his body revealed on the full body scan as well as with a physical pat-down.
I’m sure that many people with disabilities are probably very concerned about this new technology...
In my experience only Marxists and Muslims have ever pose a threat on airplanes. Both are anti-American. The simple and just cure is to not allow Muslims entry to America and to ban Marxists from air travel.
Well said! You are ready to apply for the TSA, you have the right mind-set. Thousands of worthless slugs Standing Around, you will be right at home.
I’m with you granny.
I received an email joke from an Israeli friend today that basically said:
El Al has come up with a better idea than full body scanners at airports. They have a giant thick-walled metal box. Anyone suspected of carrying an explosive will be placed inside briefly. If there is an explosive, it will be detonated immediately. So when you are in the airport and hear a quiet little pufffft sound, the next sound you will hear is “We have one extra seat for sale on Flight 834!”
I like Archie Bunker’s way.
Everyone who boards a plane will be issued a firearm and ammunition.
Terrorists will no longer wish to fly, for their prey is too well armed for them to survive. And as an added bonus, libtards will no longer fly, being to scared of ‘dem *EVIL* guns’.
That asinine statement brought an immediate feeling of outrage in me and that is a very rare occurrence for me.
May you wear your chains lightly. No reply is needed and will not be responded to.
