Maybe I am a little naive or somewhat sheltered from the real world because of my limited exposure or physical location. But the more I see, hear or read of the downward spiral ole glory is taking is really making me uncomfortable. This is just the latest. The comments pretty well size it up but that's all they are is comments. How has it gotten so twisted in a little over 200 years.

John, Many Americans are straightening their spines, and standing up to the T.S.A. goons. I say good for the women for ACTING on their Rights. Only massive (peaceful) civil disobedience will restore the once truly unique American Republic.
Seems Barry is a tad unpopular with that websites readers. More of the same from the Nazis in DC.
R.I.P. USA 9-11-2001
I saw that the other day and found it disturbing that the overwhelming majority of folks commenting on it were basically saying "He got what he deserved", and "Stick it to him!".
Well maybe he was gunning for a fight but a $10,000 fine? ??? I expected more people to side with him but it seems most have fallen into the police state bandwagon. :(
BO knows the security is all fake anyway.
He knows also that 911 was an inside job. No real need for searching the Muslim women.
I'm with this guy; I recently flew out of Minot, ND and watched in horror as an 84 year old man in a wheelchair was degraded by TSA personnel. Now, don't get me wrong; I know that the personnel were just following orders, but by gosh - an 84 year old man being searched while seated in a wheelchair just seems wrong on many levels. First, what acts or behavior predicated this search? Next, if TSA personnel have discretion, which they say they do, then why was this man treated so? Also, is there ANY evidence that this gentleman (found out later he is a WWII vet) was in any way a threat? I don't subscribe to the theory that we all have to be degraded just to fly in a plane. Those who say "as long as it makes me safer..." have it all wrong. Policies and procedures have to be reasonable and realistic. The Supreme Court case, Terry v. Ohio laid it out in regard to police pat downs. There has to be a quantifiable reason to do so and the TSA is just tap-dancing around the Constitution and the Courts, doing whatever they want in the name of "safety." I hope the conversation continues for the TSA is getting too big, too fast.
Something to consider. TSA Agents seem to have more power then the police. That is a lot of power. TSA agents do not make a lot of money and I suspect they are not in general highly educated. Unlimited power to individuals who do not get paid a great deal. What do they have to lose if they go over the line and abuse these powers? Not much in my opinion.

I'm with you John!
That's a world that I don't really live in and reading it is shocking......and, it seems to get worse everyday.
The enhanced inspections have a new name- 'gate rape'. d*

Unless you were a Muslim.
Don't you mean, extremist muslim with proven ties to terror or being caught trying to cause terror?
That's what they want you to think.

Well, at least they are persistent anyway....
No wonder they can't get people to take them seriously.....
Don't Touch My Junk (The TSA Hustle )

Someone said "don't touch my junk" and Glenn walked over to his skid steer and said,, WHOA!!!!!! Let's not get personal here!!!!.....

Sorry Glenn, that was too easy..
Big dude, you know how I feel about others playing with my equipment.... [noidea'
... well.... on the other hand... I guess you probably don't.... [waiting]
So, if our Joes put underwear on the head of prisoners, that is akin to torture, but feeling up grandma in the name of "safety" is perfectly alright? Is it me, or has common sense deserted us?
I had a chance to asked Obama one question so I decided to ask him your question. His response was "common sense, what's that?"
Many of our government workers have no common sense and must pretend that the violations of the citizens they are performing are important to justify their jobs. They are programmed to follow orders through lifelong training in government institutions, public schools and sports training. Black is white.. white is black... we are not finger banging the public.... [waiting]
They are not human... they are animals that want to travel on public transportation.
Keep movin', movin', movin',
Though they're disapprovin',
Keep them doggies movin' Rawhide!
Don't try to understand 'em,
Just rope and throw and grab 'em,
Soon we'll be living high and wide.
Move 'em on, head 'em up,
Head 'em up, move 'em out,
Move 'em on, head 'em out Rawhide!
Set 'em out, ride 'em in
Ride 'em in, let 'em out,
Cut 'em out, ride 'em in Rawhide.
This is still part of a coverup for the 9/11 inside job. We let them get away with it... will will continue to pay and most will continue to pretend that their eyes are lying to them regarding 9/11 and the TSA created because of it.
Got us to go blow up the middle east though didn't it... and you know that's what we always wanted..... [noidea'
