Lend Your Voice on Security Screening (FREEP)

"Obviously, everybody has their own perspective about their personal screening. The question is, how do we best address those issues ... while providing the best possible security?"
John Pistole, TSA Administrator, November 15, 2010

The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) has the difficult responsibility of securing and facilitating air travel for two million travelers daily. But the government and public should always ask: can we do better? We need to gather your ideas and experiences so that together we can build a world-class air travel system that encourages more Americans to travel -- creating jobs and strengthening our economy.

• What’s currently working in the air travel security screening process? What's not working?
• How can the current screening process be improved?
• What are your personal experiences with the air travel security screening process?

Join the discussion on Facebook at facebook.com/yourtravelvoice and tag your tweets with #travelvoice. We will share your insights with the Obama Administration, Congress and the travel industry.

I am not traveling this Thanksgiving, I am playing hostess. I think it would be interesting if all Freepers who ARE traveling would report, after they return home, whether they saw any Muzlims being scanned or body-searched while they were at the airport. I have not been able to find a definitive statement from the government saying that Muzlims are, or are not, exempt from what everyone else has to put up with. I would like to know what is actually occurring. Please email me with your observations and experiences, and I will compile a report for our forum. I plan to ask my family members who are traveling here what their experiences are, and will include that info. Please freep-mail me with your stories. Thanks.

What does that have to do with my question? Am I missing something?

[Georgia Girl 2]

TSA does not give a Rat’s bazoo what the public thinks. They just want to somehow be able to continue with their police state tactics at the airport and then expand that power to schools, Malls, Govt buildings, and even the public streets. This is a grand scheme that has nothing to do with public travel safety and everything to do with controlling you and your person.

For once in my adult life I am glad I am too poor to travel by air.

[PLD]

I recieved this in email this morning..It is not just airports any more..

Watch your Freedom being stolen in the name of security. Big Brother knows who the bad guys are and yet they subject everyone to their politically-correct insanity like grandma and little children. Seal the borders! Meanwhile, Obama and Liberals go after Arizona trying to protect herself.

I was considering returning to the US this winter to visit, but now we'll be spending our vacation overseas and I'm not the only one. The foreign tourism will crash. More change we can believe in.

[netmilsmom]

Please post the experiences on a thread after Thanksgiving.
We are flying to Orlando on December 2nd and would like to know.

Regardless of what you think of Ventura, listen to this interview that’s on Drudge. It makes a lot of sense:

http://www.infowars.com/breaking-former-gov-ventura-will-no-longer-fly-due-to-abuse-hes-endured-at-hands-of-tsa/

Scroll down to the 13-minute video. Send to your elected Elitist and ask for a personal response as to what they’re going to do about this outage. Also send to your email list.

After getting the public to accept the "love pats" at the airports, how long before they start posting Gropers at every entrance to target rich public buildings?
