TSA ejects Oceanside man from airport for refusing security check

Is that supposed to be relevant ???

How can you have made 5,191 posts on this site and not know what ....................... was posted for? Hellooooooo???
 
I guess these women should just relax and enjoy it eh ???

Enjoy what? I've seen no evidence they are being fondled. Inapropriate touching is wrong, but merely being patted down is not fondling ot copping a feel. I expect everyone to be adult and reasonable and not hyperbolic and exaggerate what is happening.
 
If you were trying to be funny, you failed miserably.

I wasn't trying to be funny, Gill. I was pointing out that you, as a long time user on this site, don't understand the mechanics of this site and saw fit to criticize a post I made based on your failure to understand.

Accompany your dots with words to make sense :roll:

If you'll notice, that post has no words from me. Only quotes. Therefore the post wouldn't POST because it was too short. Now you know WTF I'm talking about, Chickie???

CAT FIGHT!!!!! :beat
 
So, if it happened somewhere else, we should not be concerned about it? What else other than safety do you really believe can be gained by the "crisis"?

What is gained in any contrived crisis? Control.

why are the democratic members of the new york city council moving to ban both the naked body screeners and the offensive pat downs at la guardia and jfK?

hint: it has to do with the SENTIMENTS of the citizenry, which most good persons (LOL!) listen to and respect

ie, it's not about DICTIONARIES

If this is the case, then they aren't needed anywhere.
 
What I find most frustrating is the administration's inability to name the enemy. They not only react to fight the last war, but they treat everyone as a suspect.

Bad guys came aboard with boxcutters on 9/11, so now we ban all metal with a sharp edge. They tried again (and failed) with liquid explosives, so now we can't bring liquids on a flight. One guy tried to blow up the plane with a shoe bomb, now we have to have our shoes checked before we board. Then some jerk tried to hide a bomb in his underwear, and now TSA has to sniff and grope our underwear before we can board.

The nudie booths will tell TSA if a man is circumcised or a woman is having her period, but they won't detect the PETN explosive that the bad guys tried to ship in ink cartridges. So why can't the administration name the enemy - Islamist fanatics - and focus on groping them (as dirty a job as that may be) and leave the pilots, attendants, kids, prosthetic cases and business passengers alone?

How many failed or successful terrorists attacking the US in the last 15 years or so have *NOT* been Muslims?

What's being controlled? Don't you understand you have to show something actually be controlled for this to even make sense.

Obviously not about truth or reason or facts either. :coffeepap
 
TSA's the law. Does it make us safer? Don't know. But it's the law. You would rather take a chance that some idiot has explosives in his underwear or his shoes than be scanned? Tell your Congressman. Or don't fly. You have options. But don't be fightin' people who are just trying to do their jobs.
How large is the chance? I mean get into my car on Saturday night even though I live near the local bar strip.

Is the chance greater than getting in an auto accident?
 
As I posted earlier, how much trouble would TSA be in if he'd have left the screening area (told he could, but apparently by mistake) and walked 200 feet and blown up a ticket counter?
the same amount of trouble as if the bomber walked directly to the counter instead of going to the screening area first.

What did I win for knowing the answer?
 
Underwear Bomber and Shoe Bomber made us go crazy.

If somebody tells the TSA that there was once a Rectal Bomber, I'm never getting on an airplane again.
It's coming

oh, no, silly, it's a fact

the people are pissed

why else would the ny city council initiate such action?

Breaking: Former Gov. Ventura Will No Longer Fly Due to Abuse He’s Endured at Hands of TSA

of course the former governor of minnesota, who must know a few holds himself, isn't really entitled to his own feelings, here

it's already been affirmed declaratively

and by no less a source than...

well, i can't quite remember who

but we've all been told (and told and told) that this hyperbolic hysterical has NOT been FONDLED

nor has anyone else

even the dozen or so PRIVATE INDIVIDUALS who are SUING the too touchy tsa for, it must be, some other reason

either way, they have NO RIGHT to their umbrage

no FONDLE

why, you can look it up---in the DICTIONARY!

LOL!
 
The guy was clearly looking for trouble so I didn't really take issue with it until they escorted him from the screening area and then promised to fine him for leaving same screening area. That's an example of Government double-speak that should never be allowed to stand.

The real problem though - if he hadn't recorded this whole incident, he would have no choice but to pay an $11,000 fine.
 
RealClearPolitics - Terrorists Don't Belong in Civilian Courts

senator jim combat boots webb, once superstar senator from virginia, who defeated george allen for the job he's in great danger of losing, son of the hof coach of the redskins...

have you met virginia?

mcdonnell won by EIGHTEEN a year ago, on tsunami tuesday we took THREE house seats, came within 500 of a 4th (gerald connolly, fairfax, N VA, dc burbs, probably the most important house district in the nation), we dominate the commonwealth's house (oldest parliamentary body in the western hemisphere), 59 to 39...

but what does webb know?

it's already been decided

no FONDLE means NOTHING THERE

LOL!

the tsa is gonna have to back down on this, just like the mosque (remember the mosque?), just like moving ksm to manhattan, just like closing gitmo, just like the fox news war, comprehensive immigration reform, ending rendition and detention and dadt, taxing the rich, pulling out of afghanistan next july, cutting the deficit in half, capping unemployment at 8%...

just a buncha lame ducks
