Just flew in last night from CA. Was taken aside and scanned...Seemed my under wire set off the metal detector. Not bad for a white haired -Granny. Of course there were five single male traveler with passports, that to my knowledge went through unchallenged.

Let's get real! Doesn't do much good checking me, but may have caught someone, if terminal was connected to FBI files.

I agree, the FBI and INS and other enforcement agencies are going to have to clean up their acts and synchronize and share their intelligence with other agencies. Everybody's got to be in the loop on this -- in short, the G-men are gonna' have to do their jobs, just like they did back in the old days! And to heck with PC sensitivities about "racial profiling" and all that other rubbish (gosh, "racial profiling" -- what an offensive concept, lordy!!).

I'm a big strappin' white guy, and I've been scanned and inspected and scrutinized by the police too, in my travels around this country. Yeah, so?? Big deal! It never bothered me!

That is hilarious. I truly LOL! That's a keeper. Add to hip replacements and 13-yo-Britney-wanna-be's in platform shoes ANOTHER potentially dangerous category of threat effectively stopped by airport security: an Indiana granny with suspicious UNDERWEAR!

Meanwhile, ten swarthy turban-heads and Atta-lookalikes entered unchallenged because no one wanted to appear prejudiced against a group of people who have been trying to kill us for 1400 years and who have killed thousands of Christians and Jews---including THOUSANDS of Americans---in just the last decade.

There is so much comedy there. I envision "Airport Security Squad," starring Leslie Neilson. His Police Squad character, Lt. Frank Derbin, is transferred to guard LaGuardia (a little play upon words there.)

"We've got a situation here. 10-37, 10-37!" the call goes out in code over walkie-talkies. "Someone is attempting so smuggle a Victoria's Secret 34C onto an aircraft. MAY DAY! MAY DAY!"

Then while they do a body-cavity search of a June-Cleaver-lookalike, a parade of mohamedanss boards the plane in the background, carrying box cutters, shoes shaped like sticks of dynamite, uzi's, suitcases bearing the yellow radioactive warning label and a ticking alarm clock strapped to the luggage tag, etc.

Meanwhile, in my "Airport Squad" movie staring Leslie Neilson, while grandma is patted down by a airport guard played by Mel Gibson (and grandma is loving every second of it), the ragheads are boarding the plane flashing passports that are acutally, a) a Sam's wholesale card, b) Blockbuster card, c) AARP discount card, d) McDonalds employee badge, etc.
