TSA wants to double security fee

[hemet dennis]

I think TSA is a joke anyway. A few weeks ago TSA gave a full monte pat down to Henry Kissinger. A former Secretary of State and former Assistant to the President for National Security Affairs is definitely a terrorism risk. They didn't even seem to know who he was. And did you read about the parolee who slipped through a firedoor and onto the tarmac and boarded a plane sans ticket and sans boarding pass? He was caught by the flight attendant when she did a head count and noticed one too many passengers, not by any airport security.

More proof that all are treated the same.

Well lets get rid of security and get these numbers more even. New law in thunder storms you must carry a golf club over your head no enough people get struck by lightning.

Excluding 9/11 fewer than 500 people died from terrorist attacks from 1970-2010

Where I live everybody knows someone who died that day. Have you ever seen tanks rolling down your street and it wasn't a parade?

Was he talking about airport security ?

I was listening to a radio station a couple of weeks ago and they had a security expert on and he said that the problem with airport security is that they are unable to detect the non-metal explosives with any of their security measures and that aside from that, there is no other major threat, as the pilots are locked in the cabin, so the crashing of planes is no longer a concern.

Where in the constitution does it say I need a license to pilot the plane.

An last time I checked explosives were around when the Constitution was wrote an when Ben Franklin wrote those words. That makes the TSA both useless an illegal.

Why do some think it wouldn't.
