Figures our Terminal Stasi A-holes would be pissing off our best friends in the fight against the Pedophile Prophet's Progeny.

WASHINGTON (AFP) – Sikh Americans are protesting at what they say is a new policy at US airports to screen their turbans systematically, voicing fear the move would further stigmatize their faith.
US officials have not confirmed a change in policy and insisted they respected religious beliefs. But they said security measures necessitated checks on "bulky" clothing such as turbans, which Sikh men are required by faith to wear.
A group of Sikh American groups said they met several weeks ago with representatives of the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) who told them that airports would now screen turbans with hand-wands at all times.
Current policy is erratic, with New York City airports rarely conducting secondary searches on Sikhs but airports in other cities such as Chicago and San Francisco doing so routinely, said Amardeep Singh, co-founder of the Sikh Coalition advocacy group.
"The TSA told us, point blank, that turbans will now be screened 100 percent of the time," Singh told AFP on Monday.

If I were a TSA agent, and knowing what I know about Sikhs...I’d be taking a smoke break if I saw one coming. No way would I be grabbing a Sikh’s crotch. “Go right on thru, Sir.”
Sioux outraged at US airport War Bonnet searches (TSA profiling???)
I see. A terrorist would be unlikely to don a sikh turban and conceal something underneath. Ok. Got it.
Pope outraged at US airport bishop`s miter searches (TSA profiling???)
British judges outraged at US airport wig searches (TSA profiling???)
Lady GaGa outraged at US airport Meathead searches (TSA profiling???)
How many dominoes can they (govt.) knock over???
Apparently a lot...
Tough turds. Take the bus instead if you don’t like it.
I think they call theirs “Gurka’s”???
Pun intended...;-)
And for the record I am not inferring to Gerkin Pickles either...
(Maybe that last comment might cause an inadvertent keyboard splash of beverages this morning...)

Well they have determined a risk due to recent breast implant surgeries in this country...
I think I recall a story even discussed here in the last couple of years about using women with breast augmentation surgery to implant explosives and have them martyr themselves on international flights...
Don’t even ask me how they fuse those things either...I do not wanna know...
TSA’s are funny. They profile and molest everyone other than muslim men, ages 17-49, who are the known terrorists
My turban is dirty.

I was just gonna post that!
Is that a drink?
>>>>>.So far as I know there have been no examples of Sikhs conducting terrorist attacks against the West.
Only blown couple couple of plane, one was mid-air Air India, killed 247 people, same day bomb exploded in Japanese Airport.
Assassinated Indian Prime Minister Indra Gandhi.
Assassinated over 500 Indian political leaders, journalist and industrialist in 80s
And killed over 10000 innocent people in parks , schools, train, bus stops etc.
Some had joined hand with ISI (paki spy agency) and involved in terrorism.
Don’t under estimate them.
Even US, have you heard regular fights in their place of worship.
Last year they assassinated, Sikh’s sect leader in Austria, just because he was not very pure to Sikhism.
On turbans:
Turban over the ears, no need for fears.
Ears showing, Danger growing....
That is something I just made up, but it is a good rhyme to remeber when you see someone in a turban.
(Sikhs wear a turban over the ears, ROPers don’t)
It’s bad enough that they want walk around wearing funny clothing — but asking for special treatment is too much.
Ears showing, Danger growing....
That's sheer genius! Kudos!
If a turban can be given the seal of good housekeeping from inspection with a hand wand, why can’t our junk pass with this test? It doesn’t feel as nice for the TSA using a hand wand? Is that it?
