I was searched thoroughly before I traveled to Washington, DC, in May, Tad. As I had a lot of time, I kind of enjoyed it, even though my arms were getting tired. The men were very nice, and we talked for a bit.

I may want to work for the TSA if my daytime present job should ever evaporate. There certainly hasn't been going on much here, and I am bored just about every day here.

There certainly has not been that much excitement here, Tad. You would not want to work for TSA?

Hell no...

But you were kidding about enjoying the search right?

I also doubt there is much "excitement" at TSA either. I've had real "excitement" TSA isn't gonna do it for me...

Heck, I enjoyed it to the point where I knew I would pass.

I don't know about you, pal, but my philosophy is that if one is not up to no-good, why worry about being searched unless he has something to hide?

I'll be going through TSA in a couple of months. I mean we all don't like it, but we gotta take it that way if we want our skies to be safe.

It must be the radiatin scan by TSA that was so enjoyable to highway80west?

Airport Travelers To Get Ionizing X-Ray Radiation
Let's demand that Congress mandate TSA's radiation experiments be strictly voluntary.

According to a recent Zogby poll, traveling Americans approve long lines and gridlock at airport passenger screening points. The majority polled appreciate delays and hassles of flying today's suspicious skies and feel safer because the federal Transportation Security Agency (TSA) is in charge of airport screening.1 These happy line campers should be delighted to learn about TSA's grossly invasive new security plans. The good times have just begun.

TSA Security Laboratory Director Susan Hallowell recently announced the agency's intent to use back-scatter X-ray machines for passenger surveillance. These hugely expensive, closet-sized zappers can find the plastic bombs hidden in grandma's underpants, while delivering a smacking dose of ionizing radiation to her breasts and thyroid gland.

Snooper X-rays penetrate a few centimeters into the flesh and reflect off the skin to form a naked body image for TSA security personnel to inspect. These machines are already being field tested at several U.S. airports, including JFK, LAX and Orlando.2

I hate this argument so much... We have a right to privacy. EVERYONE has something to hide. Illegal searches are un-American... It hurts my heart everytime I hear this lame ass argument. everytime I hear an American say this, I wonder why the fuck I waste my time in the military. We defend freedom? Apparently most of you people don't want it...

Jesus fucking Christ... You're kidding me right? You're that fucking cowardly that you'd sacrifice freedom for imaginary "safety"? WE DO NOT HAVE TO SURRENDER OUR FREEDOM TO BE SAFE!!!!

Where the hell were all you people born and raised. I used to think Americans were brave, freedom loving people. Apparently we're a bunch of fucking cowards who prefer big-brother to hold us in his "safe" overarching grasp.

I can not tell you how revolted I am when I read such nonsense.

Our forefathers would be very ashamed of all who think this way, you do our country a great dis-service sir.

But that's ok... We'll get what we deserve if we allow the police state to continue in the name of "Safety"...

Safety... from what?
Fight the good fight, and die with the enemy's heart in your hand.
