L-O-L..
Message to the US: You must be sooo proud right now!!!
#17
You know the answer. You’re just yanking our chains, right?
Cursor_
#17 They had four.
“Can anybody determine if the TSA individual is wearing Muslim headgear or just some other “mask”…. Can you say “double standard”?”
Leaving the religious aspect out, I have a big problem with security personnel working incognito while they grope me or my family.
#19 ggore
Its only the muslims bringing down planes into cities because the rest of the religions have their own planes as well as explosives to drop instead of just landing the planes.
That’s it. The Taliban has accomplished its mission of taking away our freedoms. The US has OFFICIALLY LOST THE WAR ON TERRORISM!
When a nun has to be frisked, THAT’S IT!
# 17 John C Dvorak said, “The Democrats had two years to themselves to repeal the Patriot Act. Did they? Why not?”
You are right. And the Republican House will not be able to get a repeal through the Dem senate. And, assuming they try, this alone should
secure a super majority in both house in 2012. I already think it’s a given the ‘Bamster will not be returning.
Let’s hope with a super majority, the Repubs will able to solve some of the problems we face.
Probably not…
Not all religious zealots are Muslims. She could be a Catholic crackpot.
Speaking of pictures try this: http://gizmodo.com/5690749/these-are-the-first-100-leaked-body-scans
As for the repealing the Patriot Act….the Dems won’t give up the power that Bush gave them. Thus they are hypocritical assholes.
I’ll be damned if I do and damned if I don’t.
I have two metal knees. If I elect to be xray’d
they will see my prosthecics and must then be molested. If I don’t elect to be xray’d I must then elect to be molested. The enemy has won.
I can be harrassed at the pleasure of the law and my government for no probable cause.
@MattB5
Yes but a catholic zealot flying to the US (or at least to Boston) is likely to be exporting explosive not importing.
ps. All of us here in little old England would like to thank you chaps for enabling us to have 30years of expertise in dealing with terrorist threats.
#28 Most likely not. And where’s the so called ACLU on all this?
#31 Do you really wanna risk an answer from Dallas?
“Why can TSA agents keep their faces veiled?”
I see her face… Don’t see her hair as per the hijab.
Why would they search a penguin?
Does the TSA agent wear a Burka???
Cause it’s sure looks like it!!!
This is a dream job for nerds, geeks, pedofiles, rapists and any other sexually deprived people out there. And get this, it pays! Holy FCK.
If I wasn’t so fcked up to be disqualified for the job I would camped a jackass police officer, wait til he gets in line, take him to the side, make false accusations, stick him with many fun toys and maybe, just maybe have him sent to ‘tanamo for good measure.
But sadly, no matter how much I hate these ahole cops out there and no matter matter how harsh I were able to treat them they would simply NOT changed. Sad
So if a terrorist puts a bomb in his shoe, I have to take my shoes off.
If a terrorist puts a bomb in his underwear, I get a crotch patdown.
What if a terrorist puts a bomb up his ass?
The truth is, TSA has never, in hundreds of thousands of searches, detected a terrorist.
Not once.
They will keep making searches more intrusive and more intrusive, so that they can eventually find some minor reason to identify someone as a terrorist and claim that they saved lives.
