...to know that giving unionizing TSA mugs crystal balls isn't going to do a damn thing to make you and me safer, but it will do plenty to make us less free. [More]
I think I'm going to start a company that makes pixie dust we can sprinkle on air travelers. True, it will actually be repackaged bulls***, but I figure if I put it in my wife's name as a disadvantaged/woman- owned business, I may just be able to get some of that "free government money" there seems to be so much of in these days leading up to the financial ruin of the Republic...

Hell, once the airlines are killed off for good, the gov't won't have to worry about people doing all that moving around anyway. TSA can be used for roadblocks and road screening anyway, and of course, more of them will be needed. Maybe they could do drive way pre-screenings, and randoms at places like Sonic and McDonalds. Don't even get me started about the opportunities at malls and sporting events.
Suppose flying terrifies you? Flashing red lights and klaxon alarms...
Suppose you don't smile as you're being hand-raped by a TSA goon and ask "Thank you, sir, may I have another?" Aw, the hundreds of willing, fawning, resigned government victims last time I flew. I literally wanted to vomit.
Traffic at the local airport is down, and down again. They won't be seeing me there, ever again. The airlines couild oppose all this, IF they really cared about their customers. But enough people are willing, so it's OK.
I agree that these spot-the-loony methods WILL be applied to the general public, just as border patrol mission creep has put checkpoints 100 miles INSIDE the border.
I HOPE there are limits to what the people will tolerate. I know I have them.
TSA is a joke, I have personally witnessed their poor performance and extremely racist behaviors. (going all ways from all races)
First, about their racist behaviors. I was in a small air port in Texas catching a puddle-jumper to Dallas. ALL and I mean ALL passengers who were non-Hispanic white - those who used to be known as white folks - were searched, ages 6 to older all the way up to a late-aged Senior.
I had had my run-in with TSA earlier at the counter where my bag was checked. I'd been around cattle and horses for three months - no nitrogen (sp) there to be picked up on the scanner - No sirree bob.
I saw every last Anglo and no one else, no Hispanic, no Asian, no one else searched but by the time they got to me in the line to go through the metal detectors I was actually stripping. I was ready to take it all off. I've lived in Japan for goodness sake and been to the public baths - plus have had a child so what's modesty anyway? Not one non-white person was checked. Not one and the checkers were white.
If I ever waste my time flying anyplace again on a commercial airplane, I plan to arrive in a caftan with absolutely NO undergarments on and bedroom slippers on my feet. I'll carry undergarments in my purse for dressing after I'm safely beyond the folks who feel you up. But no, it's Moo Moo's for me and bedroom slippers then all I have to do the prove that I am not carrying any "you know what" on my person is just lift my Moo Moo/Caftan thereby making the man-handling, body searches unnecessary. How long do you think it would take them to arrest me for "indecent" exposure when all I want to do is "Help" make their job easier?
Personally, I think the TSA is great training for the Gestapo that Obama wants to create in our Civilian Army to control us with God knows what. We are herded like lambs through airports so it's just not a difficult leap to have brown-shirted thugs at every driveway.
