Whatever..

I tell you after being there his story doesn't surprise me at all. If you knew these people and their overstuffed self image (they want to be defined as people by their occupation and the "power" that comes with it. That's the lens they view things through) you might not be so sure.

I have said about everything I have to say on the subject, regardless.

"I think she's from that part of the south where being felt up in public is ok, you are expect to say "they are just breasts" when someone touches them, and men dont get upset when other people make their wives cry. "

Do you understand that you are talking about a 60 year old grandmom?!?

You might want to rethink things.

Just when I thought we were all about to have a group hug.

His wife probaly cried because he whines naturaly, or because he whines because of her.

Yep, he must be a whiner. He took up for his wife.

Oh dear, this will call for a whole nother thread.

I agree.. totally.

And from my own, personal perspective it's all over nothing anyway. That's the most frustrating part.

I swear, I wish these people could see what goes on and the kind of employees they are defending when they just put blind trust in "airport security" to "do the right thing"

It's more ridiculous than I can describe. BUT, it makes people feel safe and that's what they want.

While we're at it. Let's look at it from the TSA person's perspective. Nothing builds your ego like making a pregnant woman cry, and since self esteem is so important these days, her sacrifice was neccessary for the country.

Drop the affected, fake "sir" crap - this isn't Congress, much as some of you like to pretend it is.

People who act like intemperate, boorish asses in my world get treated like intemperate, boorish asses - and being snotty to a low paid FSA screener isn't "standing up for yourself", its being abusive.

I know, we were this close to a hug, just at the point of reconciliation and now this!! I know how Trent Lott feels!!! I told my husband a poster insinuated I was a slut. He looked uncommonly pleased. He looked really sort of energised at the thought that all these years he had lived with a slutand didn't know it. He is getting mke a glass of wine right now.

You sound familier. Especially the "I have said about everything I have to say on the subject, regardless."

How's it going, Willie?

Sorry, the name is Logan.

Being a TSA screener and abusing people by using the pathetic bit of power the government gives you isn't boorish though, is it?

[HairOfTheDog]

I give you no credibility at all when you paint all airport screeners as some lower class of people that loath me. Its BS. They are people that needed a job. People like me. And you.

Too funny. Have to go. I've enjoyed the banter with all of you.

I don't recall any "boorish, intemperate asses" among the citizen's in Orwell's 1984, do you?

Hey, I think my age imparts significance on my every word. I do think age does give one a different view on what is worth getting het up about and what is not. Besides it makes me feel better.
