I found this online and thought it was an interesting and relevant read.

Guess who ordered nude body scanners

If you think that's interesting, look into Mr. Chertoff, as former Dept of Homeland Security and his connection to his consult company and his clients.

"CAIR offered a “special recommendation” for Muslim women who wear a hijab, telling them they should tell the TSA officer that they may be searched only around the head and neck."

I wouldn't even know where to start with this statement or more importantly, where to end!

Of course, the funny thing is, we should probably embrace the Arab Anti defamation league on this issue, since I am quite certain, the administration would bend over backwards not to offend the muslims, whereas groping your typical 15 year old american girl is just fine!

No, not xenophobic, far from it, but something about this just doesn't sit right with me!

Guess who we have to thank for TSA and the Department of Homeland Security.

Who pays for SIDA badges, not the employees, so, just give me a national SIDA badge and I'll use the same entrance as the rampers, see problem solved.

AFAIK, the IAM/TWU/SEIU doesn't pay for the SIDA badges, so why should ALPA or the pilots of the airline pay for CrewPass?

Right after the NWA incident into DTW he was doing the rounds all over the media. I think within days of that he was instrumental in securing contracts with a few nations.

Default Give a surprise


Stick a banana down your pants. When they recoil after groping you and ask you what that is, smile and say "lunch".

Default Redacted (Black out TSA Information)

Any guesses why the TSA Contracted Report on Scanner Radiation Safety (John's Hopkins University) is redacted (blacked out) out on many pages. I can understand the "operations pages" being blacked out but many of these pages are about traveler and employee safety.
