    I dont see all this hurting the industry at all, maybe very minor, but I think those who choose not too will come around and get used to it.
    I fly at least 3-4 times a month. It is getting ridiculous and politicize beyond believe. I agree, the system is broken! Instead of enforcing the BORDER SECURITY, the US is subjecting its own people like terrorists. They are all interconnected.

    I encourage those who think this is not a big deal to rethink carefully. Maybe you don't fly all the time, however what if the fed is to set up check points in your neighborhood, search you and your vehicle anytime it wants - how would you feel? Driving after all is not a right but a privilege!

    This pat down opens a whole new avenue for attorneys to use in sexual molestation cases.
    The government will now have to redifine what groping is.

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sexual_abuse

    Under “Types of Sexual Abuse,” we see this:

    -Unwanted touching, either of a child or an adult.

    Going to be interesting as the law suits show up in court. And I understand that you can sue the individual themselves.

    If I have offended anyone sorry, not my intent. Maybe my wording wasn't correct in my venting. Obviously I pushed some buttons that didn't need to be pushed, some of you might need to worry about your blood pressure. (since i MUST be young and probably doesn"t know shit about life, history, the constitution or anything for that matter)

    I agree with all of you that TSA is absolutely worthless and make shit happen that should never even be thought of. Yes, I think that more of the general public that would carry, especially on airplanes, would make it a safer atmosphere. Unfortunately, the airlines are the ones that will change what is happening at this point in time or the lack of people willing to travel. No TSA for general aviation.

    I also understand that the government will slowly take away our freedoms until we have nothing left. It has happened in history, I have read it. Don't assume from my post that I am "un-educated". That just makes you look like an ass, before I post next time about something controversial and expect to have an opinion, I will be sure to put my resume out there for being a part of this forum.

    About the privilege and right comment: It is about a choice. Yes I think that the TSA is wrong. When I buy a ticket, I, at that point, understand that this could happen to me. If I do not want to deal with it, i will drive a car to where I want to go. Or, rent an airplane of my own. Bingo, that was easy. Oh wait, $3500 an hour, thats steep. The choice is yours.

    When all this started I didn't see the majority of the US say "we are boycotting air travel until this changes". Unfortunately that is what it may take for the TSA to be brought back to earth.

    I understand what you are trying to say. By the same token you may say, one day, the fed will prohibit all firearms to be used in the BLM or national forest. You can still shoot, just have to be in private ranges - and you'd be ok with it.

    If you think the current security measure will stop a bunch of Muslims from hijacking an airplane with any sharp contraband, you are wrong.

    I am not agreeing with the current security measures, just trying to make a point. Private ranges? absolutely not, I think it is all f*cking garbage BS, just like the TSA. If someone wants to blow up a plane or fly it into another building they will find a way to do, its that simple. If you read my other posts I agreed that TSA is just a "feel good, BS" organization that makes the general public feel safer, but doesn't actually accomplish much of anything besides being a pain in the ass and over stepping boundaries.

    I always try NOT to make exchanges of Ideas and viewpoints personal.

    I respect your opinion, regardless of how wrong it might be


    All I am saying its that unfortunately we will see the error of our ways in a manner much like we see the mistreatment of Native Americans, Japanese Americans, Mexican immigration and the multitudes of other mistakes this country has made in the past.
    and we will attempt to correct it after the fact by throwing multitudes of money at it.

    Our leaders are no more accountable for their actions than a 2 year old, they are creating policies and projects that do nothing except to attempt some feeble justification for their over bloated salaries. and to retain this they use fear and "Selective reporting" to create the fear that brought their positions about to begin with.
    Do you HONESTLY think that the policy makers will pay for the treatment of people dying of cancer caused by the scanners?
    YOU and YOUR CHILDREN will foot that bill.

    Hell, if you want to pay people to fuck up policy, grope your children and kill your family, we are putting the wrong ones in jail.

    Sadly there will be no "public outrage" or Boycotts. The majority of our society has been trained to keep their heads down, pay their bills and contest nothing. Don't make waves, Don't stand out lest you draw unwanted attention to yourself.
