This morning on the NYC talk radio John Gambling Show “Ranking Member of the House Committee on Homeland Security” Peter King (R-NY) said that there was no alternative to the naked scanners and the indecent pat downs, including lifting bras, that there was no way to get around it.
The ELITES continue to see every and all Americans as a real threat, a likely mad bomber or terrorist.
I am happy that REAL hero and AMERICAN NON-ELITE Captain Sully has come out AGAINST this abuse of the rights of free men and women.
If "the ELITES" continue down the path they have been on, it may turn out that they have very good reasons for this point of view..
Seems to me that they are working quite diligently to create the very situation that they claim they are so concerned about. The phrase "self-fulfilling prophesy" comes to mind.
Of course, this administration told us in no uncertain terms who they considered to be the enemy very early on, didn't they?
Acc to the article, Sullenberger did not come out against this "abuse of the rights of free men and women" as such. It says he objected to it as inefficient.
"Sullenberger, who landed a crippled US Airways jet on the Hudson River last year, said the use of full-body pat-downs and advanced imaging scanners for airline personnel 'just isn't an efficient use of our resources.' "
When is the last time Peter King flew on a commercial flight? Has he or his family ever been subjected to the T&A scanners and pat-downs? Is it possible that he and the rest of the Royalty class have no earthly idea what takes place outside of the arrogant doors of DC?
