Brilliant idea! How soon will it be before the TSA bans kilts?

I’m going to wear a bikini and bathrobe.

That should send everyone screaming for the exits. I look like an older Maxine.

On a brighter note, the LA radiation doser went on the fritz as I got up to it and they sent me through the regular metal detector, no pat down.

TSA agent: Step into the scanner.

Traveler: I opt out.

TSA agent: OK, we'll have to give you a full pat down, including both thighs up to the groin.

Traveler: sigh if you must. But in the interests of full disclosure, you need to know that due to some unpleasant events in my past, which I neither want to discuss nor even think about, I'm told that the I beat the last guy who touched my crotch into a bloody pulp. Mind you, I have no recollection of actually doing this, and I think I can control it if I can brace myself for the unwanted contact. Still, I want you to know that I have the highest respect for you and admire the difficult job you do, so if I have a full psychotic break and injure you, it's nothing personal, and I have no conscious control over it.

(pause)

Traveler: Your move.

No Thanks! Last time I tried that, Barney Frank was my screener.

>> If nothing else, this will cause TSA employees to throw up their hands in disgust.

And if it doesn’t... well, don’t tell the TSA screener your phone number when he asks, let’s put it that way.

Just curious. Are there any laws against traveling with no underwear, a kilt and a full erection?

I opt in!

No, No, No! Wear a hijab and claim Muslim status! (you can claim a temporary conversion) This will prove the double standard.

I suggest commando-style kilt-wearing.

It's called "Regimental", and it is the only way to wear a kilt.

In addition, I would prep for the trip by not bathing for, oh, about a week. :D

That’s funny - a guy I knew in the UK, would wear his kilt when hitch-hiking from London to Edinburgh and wear his pants on the way back!!!

Never question a man wearing a kilt.

So the concept of operations here is for a small number of citizens to act up, and jam the system so that nobody can catch their planes?

This will endear the protesters greatly to those who just want to get on a plane and go somewhere.

Imagine if it were Muslims doing this- acting up so nobody could fly. The FBI would immediately declare that it was not terrorism, while most others would declare it a terrorist act and show how it was organized on the internets. With lots of jokes about “Oh those Amish are at it again!”

I think too that part of this concept is based on the “fact” that “they can’t arrest us all”, which might apply in a city park but not so well in the constrained areas of airports.

I’ll be flying then, I think, this will be fun to watch.

TSA really has no option but to push for stronger security to the point of being pushed back by the public. Otherwise when a plane blows up in the sky they’ll be blamed for lax security.

kilts

I'm thinking the pertinent hidden parts should also be coated with a thick coat of Vaseline petroleum jelly...a gift that keeps on giving.

"Well, you see sir, I have a condition...and I have to keep 'my junk' moisturized. Oh, I'm sorry, did you get some on you?"
