I can imagine that the terrorist are laughing their a$$es off watching Americans of all ages squirm as we - our children, mothers, disabled, etc - get patted down for weapons. I'm certain it's pure entertainment for those who hate us with a passion...

If anyone agrees that the TSA is justified in scanning/feeling up your T and A... well, have fun, enjoy it. I, myself, am boycotting any airport that supports this BS. To h*ll with flying, as far as I'm concerned.

I am expecting at least one mid-air jetliner explosion sometime between tomorrow and Thanksgiving.

The Government is getting pretty sick of all this whiny back talk.

yeah, probably, but they will not be exempt either, nor will other Muslims.

They really won't like that.

This isn't an issue of the airlines as they would just as soon not have to deal with the brunt of complaints that come from the shake downs that are happening at the TSA checkpoints. Instead it's a symptom of a Federal Government completely out of control that has extended it's power over it's citizens in unacceptable ways. People should be outraged but like most sheep, they are drinking the koolaid put forth endlessly on TV that it OK to give up rights (like not being practically strip searched by the government) for the false sense of security against an imaginary enemy.

I go to Europe twice a year - and I am researching what ships I can take! I have plenty of time and money and I certainly have no interest in subjecting my underage daughter to these government-endorsed pedophiles.

Any of these a-holes touch her, I don't know what I would do - but I am sure it would land me in jail.

Could you let some rent a cop do this to your kid and just stand by and not say anything? This is what TSA has become. And we are supposed to believe we are safer for it. Well they claim to protect us from the boogyman, but who protects us from them?

"Professional"???? Are you kidding?

Sorry I can't cite the precise day of the broadcast and you wouldn't be able to listen to the archive anyway without having to pay for it, but I distinctly remember, last week or the week before, a caller to the Michael Rivero radio program on Republic Broadcasting Network, stating that his significant other was turned down for a job with TSA based on the finding that her IQ was too high! I'm not kidding!

If you absolutely must hear it for yourself, there may be a reference to the call on Rivero's website WHAT REALLY HAPPENED | The History The US Government HOPES You Never Learn!

Professional?
