After my experience past Sunday in ORD, I have to agree with Michael Husk about the IQ of these TSA agents. Not for the first time my checked-in bag was completely damaged after a TSA opening. And the security checkpoint to pass took me a full hour at terminal 1 in ORD. out of ten checkpoints two were manned all other stations were closed. The bulk item station was manned with five people doing absolutely nothing for more tha 30 minutes. What a joke....
The TSA for the most part consists of a bunch of friendly, well-meaning, bumbling idiots that all drink the same Kool-Aid and tell the public whatever their bosses tell them to say in an effort to get the public to believe that in some mysterious way Big Sis and the Department of Homeland InSecurity is doing something to protect the American public!
The rules are not standardized, they mean different things to different TSA agents, in different airports and on different days. The backscatter detector is dangerous and should be banned as it is in Europe. But as long as the American sheeple trade their "rights" for a false sense of security, this is going to continue to be our way of life.

There is a fine line between "protecting the public" and an invasion of our rights as US Citizens. What I find offensive is the lies told to the American public by TSA officials in an effort to scare them and and ate same time make them feel a false sense of security that they are somehow being protected by Big Sis and the Department of Homeland InSecurity. There is also a total lack of standardized rules between airports. It would seem that a person should have the same rules apply in one airport as in another, especially in the same day. It's all in how they decide to interpret them.
While I admit that most of the TSA staff do seem personable and friendly they're all drinking the same Kool-Aid, by constantly stating how "safe" the backscatter detector is. It's not that I prefer to get a patdown, however I certainly don't wish to be exposed to the extra radiation that the backscatter detector emits. There is a good reason why they don't use it in Europe. I feel it's a permanent way of life nowadays having to deal with the TSA in all public airports but quite another seeing them recently at train stations, light rail stations, etc. That is where I believe they are crossing the line.

They can have him, we don't want him back. Maybe his buddy mitch will go down there and they will keep him too.
I certainly hope they keep that moron in nashville. We don't want him back here in KY.
If it had been Eric holder, it would have been an outrage, but Paul's violation is okay. Sure glad we cleared that up.
