These aren't from TSA.

"U.S. Marshals in a Florida Federal courthouse saved 35,000 images on their scanner. These are those images."

On that note, the TSA isn't as bright as the Marshall Service, so any day now...........

The TSA in it's present form was demanded almost exclusively by the Democrats.

The Republicans have their idiots, too - i.e. Jim DeMint with his cockpit recording fetish.

But try going from Charlotte to Miami, say hello to Chester The Molester... or you can give a show to the back-room pervert.

This idiocy only happens because people accept it...

I like the guidance of USAPA:

After being subjected to an enhanced pat-down procedure, pilots must evaluate their fitness for duty. As has been determined, there is a wide range of possibilities once you submit to a private screening, and the results can be devastating. Unacceptable as this is to all USAPA pilots, and until these invasive measures are no longer implemented on airline pilots, it is your responsibility to make sure you are emotionally fit and not stressed in any way by your close encounter with the TSA.

"You touch my junk, I'm calling in molested..."
Just for the sake of accuracy... yeah, they do. Not at all places yet just like here, but at some and it's expanding. In AMS now, the "naked scanner" is at the gate and everybody goes through. No alternatives.

I realize the environment of the times, but he took a lot of heat over other stuff. Why not this? That's why I say it was his biggest mistake.
So...it's fine for us to belong to a union, but not Federal workers.

I would say that it is fine for the feds to have a union, but they should have to negotiate with their employer for the contract. US. Put their pay and bennies on the ballot in November with the associated tax increase to pay for the benefits and we'll comence the section 6 we all deal with.

Within the last month I requested and was given an alternative screening in AMS. Same thing as TSA, walk through the ol' metal detector, then get a pat down.

Thorough, but professional. None of those silly questions in the 'touch my junk' video.
