That's funny. You're not upset about the pat down. Dammit, I'm late. Can you frisk him later. Cute.

The libral whiners must be safe and secure at all costs right?

Papers please.....
Liberals only FEEL safe. It is only about "feelings" with them, because they are incapable of rational thought. It does not matter to them that government is trampling all over their constitutionally protected rights, as long as they FEEL safe.

The rest of us know that security is merely an illusion to make the self-deluded "feel" safe.

So what type of security would you implement at the airports?

I wonder if King Obama's kids get molested everytime they ride Air Force One.

The same kind of security we had before 9/11. We don't need to have invasive security just because the government likes to involve itself in false flag terror

Glitch, sorry to disappoint you, but most mainstream conservatives (you know, the ones that are gaga for Sarah Palin) would give up their rights to feel safe. It's not just liberals.

Maybe we can have 2 terminals at every airport, one for the libertarians and one for the rest of us, wouldn't want to infringe on your rights.

Maybe with all the naping going on, TSA agents should take a break coping a feel on 6 year olds and go visit the control tower to go wake up the sleepy heads

Lately it looks like you're more likely to die taxiing on the runway or trying to land in a unmanned airport than having your plane blown up.

I'm used to it by now I guess. It's happened multiple times in various places because of the line of work I was in. If it bothered me I just wouldn't go places where I know my person or belongings might be searched.

Yeah I do like to FEEL safe. I lock my door at night because it makes me FEEL safe. Sure someone could kick the door in or climb through the window but locking it makes me FEEL better.

Guess you just leave your door wide open and hope that no one comes in.

Can you max it out a little?

Is there anything more the Government can do to make you feel safe?
