Oh yeah? The creep with the rubber glove is waiting for you at the checkpoint;
Seems to me if they don’t want to play by the rules, they can buy their own planes and have their own airlines and airport.....Blow themselves up but stay off the rest of our airlines.
Good! Install ‘em at all airports and keep ‘em off the effin’ planes!
Great! Stay on the ground, then.
And historically, it’s not been the women who are suicidal and (simultaneously) murderous.
A conveyor belt, maybe?
ACLU does not like body scanners either.
They show bags of drugs and bundles of cash.
No, seriously, ACLU has issues with detecting stuff that can’t harm a plane.
But, a bag of PETN looks just like a bag of heroin, so no body scanners!
Oh yeah? The creep with the rubber glove is waiting for you at the checkpoint;
I will allow a body scan if it means no Muslims are flying. That’s what I call compromise.
My reasoning was the obvious lukewarm support from what had been considered so called friends in the moderate muslin world. That has not changed, and our PC society/government will not come to grips that it is the intent of the muslim faith to destroy everyone who is not a muslim.
We will regret that strategy in the end.
Then arrested them and deport them if possible.
You know what, Im sick of all this. Every time some cook of a moon-loon tries to blow up a plane, some new strictures come up. The govt needs to figure out a way to provide security WITHOUT inconveniencing 100% passengers 100% of the time!
Muslims: We won’t stand to be impeded in our plans to blow up Americans.
ya.. don’t fly. ride your camels instead!
Then let ‘em take their own car, walk or don’t go.
They don’t want to be scanned? Then do us all a favor and don’t fly.
I’m not doubting your word, but would love to see a link on this.
I am usually the first one to go olong with any measure that contributes to the safety of passengers but this is where I draw the line. We can pussy-foot around the issue all we want but I am sorry to say that in this case there is no other choice but to PROFILE.
Muslims have been blowing planes in the air and kiling innocent people for as long as I can remember, enough! It is time our government realize who and what the enemy is and stop pussy-footing around the real issue and deal with it. Time to get tough and dirty, either start profiling or nuke the bastards. Either that or be ready to see more planes falling from the sky in flames.
Screw them all, I’ve had it with anything muslim. They are simply evil and need to be stopped.
Muslims won’t submit to body scanners, so they should stop flying... then we won’t need the body scanners. Problem solved.
While my first instinct is to reply: “Then don’t fly”, we need to adapt El Al’s security measures which were bandied about after 9-11 and promptly forgotten. They include such things as:
Profiling by religion and country of origin,
Looking at recent travel history,
Checking passport and name against multiple data bases,
Multiple screenings of luggage,
Luggage not left unattended once screened,
Intense inspection of passports and boarding passes,
Sky marshals on every plane,
Double doors on all cockpits,
Pilots are allowed to armed in cockpits, and
Interviews by security officers prior to boarding.
Even at overseas airports El Al conducts security checks, even if they are supervised by government or private security firms.

Also, IIRC anyone who not allowed to fly EL AL is very courteously assisted in getting a flight on another airline.
What I like about El Al’s approach is that they catch not only those on the terror watch lists, also those who have recently traveled to Muslim countries for ‘training’, converts who don’t fit the traditional Jihadist profile, e.g. blond blue-eyed man name Patrick O’Reilly, and those who are duped into carrying.
