I sympathize with the TSA screeners. I travel quite a bit and have never gotten the impression that the screener took any pleasure from patting me down.

Your idea is a good one, but you have to let them believe you are actually serious. Otherwise they will turn goon on you.

So actually try to imitate one of our gay Roman citizens and ask if they were at “Pride” or if they'd like to have a drink upon your return. Just make it believable. It would be hilarious.

And when do they change their gloves? Nice way to spread infections

Marxist ploy to create disrespect for authority figures....it is 24/7 to make people hate cops, the military, etc., by the Marxists....all divide and conquer. Racism, Sexism, etc., is all fueled by Marxist obambi....it is to bring us down.

These employees are being used to help condition us to accept slavery. We need to act like citizens of this great country and not allow them to treat us like criminals.

We need to drop the cultural Marxism (political correctness) and use common sense to profile....all muslims need to be searched. All others, unless acting suspicious or coming from suspect countries, need very little screening. We are idiots to allow cultural Marxism to invade our school system and country. PC has got to be eliminated. All curricula that teaches multiculturalism (all cultures are equal) HAS TO BE ELIMINATED. That is the biggest fraud put forth by Marxists to destroy Western Civilization (Christianity)—the only thing standing between them and one-world government.

Thought-provoking post.

Of course, the ones who hate groping people of the same sex might quit, and the ones don’t mind it will stay, and those that love it will be drawn to apply for the vacancies.

I’m not going to jail for you...

Happened with my son-in-law. His boss was in a very messy divorce and my son-in-law could see where it was headed regarding the company books. And yes it took him several monrhs to find another job.

This is how it's done. Don't leave a VM with an exec, rather make the girl who answers the phone cry.

I told one old boss “I am not going to jail for you.”

I had something like that happen, too. After I got out of the service about a thousand years ago- I was handed the keys to an overloaded, top-heavy truck and told to avoid the weigh station that was between me and my destination. I refused to do that.

In the end, there weren't any consequences with the company. He knew that if he made an issue of it, he was going to lose.

I have refused to do what I thought was immoral. I have walked off jobs rather than go against good engineering practices.


It is a rather small club but glad to meet another member.

make them change gloves after EVERY pat down...

if the gloves are to keep their hands clean from touching dirty passengers, then they shouldn't be touching anybody else with them once a person is touched with them to protect the PASSENGERS from getting dirt and filth on them also!!!

Recently asked one TSA agent if I could wear my watch and he shrugged like I was some turdball. However he came to life mucking it up with one of the homies and talking roundball nonsense. We pay such morons to do moronic work and be their best at moronisms. Thanks for nothin’ TSA.

These TSA can’t quit on moral grounds. They couldn’t get a job anywhere until the TSA hired them. They are mostly an’ unemployable’ lot of hoodlums.

He got very mad, until he figured out I meant it.

They can only keep it going until the next bomber. Then they will think of something else. Imagine a bomber with a plastics explosive hidden in his anal cavity. And then the muslim women who will be able to pat themselves down if it’s up to Janet Whats-her-face.

This whole strategy is fraught with utter BS.
