You have to wonder what they would do if they encountered a young teenager, say, 13, wearing a sanitary napkin. I shudder to think. Make her take it off? Test the liquids? Clearly, they are getting off on selected individuals. You cannot tell me that revenge racism does not play a part.
My thoughts exactly. I am not a criminal-minded person but even I can think up ways to easily get past these measures, and unless they were willing to literally take apart my body they would not be able to know whether I was a terrorist laden with WMD’s or just a normal person.
Another thought that came to me was that if I was going to fly I would wear a sanitary napkin just as a barrier to this kind of touching. Sort of like football pads. Somebody else mentioned a jockstrap with an athletic cup. What would they do?
I read a very funny account of a guy who put an active vibrator in his pants to test what would happen. The TSA ended up wiping the outside of the vibrator so they could test for chemicals on the outside plastic. The author noted that they could not have known if the vibrator had explosives packed INSIDE it.
He said he would be willing to go naked if terrorists started filling vibrators with explosives. But I say it wouldn’t make any difference if we WERE naked. They knew he had a device, and without taking the thing apart and inspecting it in detail they couldn’t know whether it was safe or not. But they let him on the plane anyway.
After all that search they STILL didn’t know whether there were dangerous explosives, but they let the guy on the plane. What was gained by that whole procedure? Nothing.
You know I think you stumbled on the truth here. We all know these new invasive measures came straight from Obama himself. We also know that Obama is a racist.
If you read the book "The Roots of Obama's Rage" you will discover that Obama has an anti-colonialist mentality rather than a love for the American people. He actually does hate anyone white and wants to see us all humiliated.
Think back in time here a bit. How were slaves treated on the public auction block? Stripped naked? Yep. Groped? Yep. And on and on it goes. I think Rush is right. These new patdowns are Obama acting out his rage on the electorate. He's also venting his racism making Americans endure what slaves had to endure in the past and he thinks its payback time.
I think you've nailed it big time.
