Airport Security?



I guess they just got the scanners here at San Diego airport. I saw on the news last night that some guy refused the scanner and they brought him over for the pat down. After they began that he refused it, got his ticket refunded and went home.

Well I guess it's a federal crime to not complete the security check, even if you're not going to fly. So he's probably going to be fined $10k. He has video of the whole thing on his blog.

About 5 months ago I flew out of a small local airport...

Of the massive herd of people trying to get through the one metal detector they had, I got chosen and pulled to the side stalling everyone.... so the "potentially gay" trainee employee could physically search me with the FULL pat down...
and of course those casual questions "do you have any sore or sensitive areas"...

I couldn't stop myself from chuckling throughout the process

This would be my goal. Make the pat down as uncomfortable for the person groping you as possible. If they're going to sexually assault me, then I'm going to tell them that I can't wait for their supple hands to jiggle my nuts.

I'd bet a lot of the male TSA agents aren't too happy about having to caress my balls. Just add to that unhappiness by insinuating that they're gay and your appreciate how tender they were.

Interesting thought from the comments.

My wife made an interesting point yesterday. This completely excludes Muslim women from flying. They are not allowed to be touched that way or photographed naked. So, in a way, this has even become discriminatory. I smell juicy lawsuit.

This does in fact exclude women from flying who have a religion that states that only their husbands can touch them (in private areas) or see them naked.
 
I think the security is ok but when is the last time a 60 year old grandma was a terrorist? I flew to New York a couple of Months ago and they pulled a NUN out of the line to go through her carry on and pull her underwear out on the table in front of everyone! I was so irritated I wanted to cause a big stink but I knew where that would lead me!

How about some profiling! If your 20 to 45 and your name is Mohamed or you look like your name is Mohamed then you get the super scan. Everyone else just get on the plane.

If your a good guy and your name is Mohamed well sorry but a few people screwed it up for you.

LOL make sure to chub up before you go though the scan. I think I am going to make sure i have a raging hard on before I go though security so if I get a pat down they are going to find a surprise. They still sell playboys at airports?
 
Sorry for the 3rd post in a row but I am stuck on the topic.

Wear a kilt he says? I am now officially going to buy a Utilikilt and wear it when I fly on the 8th (dec). Its going to suck because I am going to Minnesota, but its for sure going to be a lark.
 
Won't be long now before we all have to stand in line for the raping machine before flying or driving or riding the train.
 
They've had the scanners in Chicago (at least at Ohare) for a few months now, and it's a huge mess. Make sure you get there EARLY and prepare to wait. Not only do you get to create that porno you always wanted to in college, but it takes long enough for you to get reeeeally psyched for it while you wait in line.

U.S. airport scanners pose skin cancer risks, doctors warn

I guess since I was stupid enough to forget that I don't want to fly that I will just go though the pat down. Ill have to try not to be a dick so I am not arrested, for not blending in with the other sheep.

Just a side note here but how many people recall their family doctors and dentists only taking x-rays when 100% needed. My doctors have always been weary of subjecting you to unnecessary radiation. Where is the lead apron for my balls at the airport?

And how long will it be until these things are at all public facilities? There is nothing keeping a terrorist from walking into the Mall of the Americas and blowing them selves up in the one of the kid play zones. What about Disney? Last time I was there they were just checking purses for weapons. You could have a shotgun strapped to your leg and they would never know. Give it a few years for people to accept the constant scanning and for costs of the machines to come down and they will be everywhere.

There's a quote ;)
 
TSA: Theater Security Administration

As long as we keep dealing with symptoms rather than the problem, much of what we do will be security theater. We need to be honest about and willing to address the core issues of why America has become a target for terrorism. And perhaps the most important issue that we still refuse to acknowledge is an interventionist U.S. foreign policy -- practiced by Democrats and Republicans alike -- that breeds resentment and hatred in the Muslim world.

Solid point.
