Come one people, how many more times will you need to be suckered into believing this BS before you get a clue?

There are plenty of other, “hidden in plain sight” very simplistic memes in this account that apparently, only those who actually know how to learn and think on their own can easily spot.

Think.

The story reeks of another FBI/CIA stooge setup, complete with FULL video “to remove all doubt”

Screw them. And you if you’re in that bandwagon, your choice.

#54 I wish it were only body searches. It’s also being treated as a prisoner inside the plane. I say better treat #53 like a prisoner than me.

In a time when we can detect water vapour on a neighbouring planet, we must be able to build a fool proof explosives detector. I travel internationally every few weeks and have started to take longer routes just to avoid unnecessary American/British stop overs. This must be costing the airlines tons of cash. Although the hand luggage restriction is saving them costs due to the reduced weight on board.

I just want to go through some scanner, in as short a time as possible without undressing or unpacking all my electronics for inspection. I dont want to rely on some person giving me a free grope/pat down.

But at the end of the day, body searches are much cheaper than hi-tech scanners and the TSA is providing employment for many people.

Dumbest comment I have read yet. How do you plan to figure out who is Muslim and who isn’t? It is equivalent to trying to spot a Baptist vs an Agnostic. Muslim spans many countries of the globe, you can’t tell someone’s religion based upon the colour of the skin or clothes they wear. And the day we have to put our religious beliefs on a passport to get into the USA is the day I stop visiting that country!

I thought there was a very good reason for turning off the lights; to make sure your eyes were dark-adapted as much as possible in case of a failure during the takeoff or landing. If there is a failure (like a runway overrun, perhaps?) then seconds matter. If you have to spend seconds waiting until you can see after the lights go out your chances of survival drop.

If that statement about the flight from Newark is true those flight attendants chose not to follow a long-established safety procedure in favor of what? A chance that they might spot something if the lights were on?

Truly this is a case of ‘fear is our greatest enemy’.

Notice that Tiger’s now off the front page?

Although is not my place to give it, the King Kahuna Moron Award goes to you today

The Nigerian moron was already on the US list of suspicious individuals, after his father notified the authorities about his son’s extreme opinions – a year ago!

So – blatantly obvious that the rules and regulations and all powers vested with ‘them’ has not been used. Someone has been sleeping! TSA, CIA, FBI, Homeland Security… who knows, but someone simply did not do their job!

They were too busy checking toe nail clippers, mouthwash bottles and 6 mos old babies. TSA is a joke, why pretend they are anything other then that.
