He is flat wrong. The TSA looking at naked pictures of your body or groping your genitalia will absolutely save us from terrorists. There is no way the terrorists can find their way around these harmless and necessary tiny little infringements of our rights.

Guess our employees, those little rascals... little beggars, are afraid of the light of truth being shown on their extensive and technologically sophisticated security measures. Why, the evil terrorists might find ways to thwart the TSA's in-depth system and do who-knows-what mischief.

Sophisticated? No.

Sophistry? That's what we're getting from them by way of justification.

Sophomoric? Yep. They are.

Eventually passengers will get randomly chosen for exploratory surgery to make sure they haven't swallowed a weapon or an explosive.

Gotta crack this abdominal cavity. We will get you on your flight in a few days.

So what if someone makes a zip gun and crams it in their rectum? Are people going to be strip searched?
Sorry, but a STRIP SEARCH won't necessarily discover a zip gun "crammed" far enough up the rectum and into the colon....

That being said... IT WON'T STOP THE TSA FROM YET ANOTHER 'FEEL GOOD' SECURITY THEATER ACT!

Excuse me sir, but you have been randomly selected for a colonoscopy before boarding:eek:.

This Just In:

TSA officials have released plans to board certify their pre-flight screeners as certified physicians so that further examinations may include safety increasing exploratory surgery and endoscopic examinations.

Please be prepared to change into your Pre-Flight inspection gown for the mandatory rectal groping. It's ok ladies and gentlemen...

They're certified to probe your anus in the name of national security. :lol:

This thread has definitely taken a turn for the worse - latrine humor wears a little thin after a while. Shouldn't we be projecting a better image of ourselves?

One of the more telling quotes from that article:

"A person briefed on the latest tests tells ABC News the failure rate approaches 70 percent at some major airports. Two weeks ago, TSA's new director said every test gun, bomb part or knife got past screeners at some airports."


Makes you feel real safe doesn't it. It's obvious that the solution to this is to grope and fondle looking for these items.
