TSA wants to double security fee

[Capvin]

Was talking to a friend about this thread. Because of work they have to be in a new city every couple of days, they almost live in airports. He said the funny thing is the people who only fly once or twice a year are the loudest complainers about the lines and security. People who frequently fly understand the need for security.

AMEN....could not agree more!!

I know..
I just don't think that TSA is all bad...its there for a very good reason. And I'm thankful for it.
If it really bothered me..I just wouldn't fly..its my free choice to fly and go through security....or its my free choice to drive a car...take a bus...train..hire a taxi...

Until TSA shows up at the bus or the train...It is being considered. As I've said, it's all about getting the masses used to being controlled.
One step at a time.
Soon, you won't be able to leave your sector, without your papers being in order.

My God, Royd!! I have been to Middleburg and you have got to stop drinking the spiked water.

So do you think the TSA should double the fees ?

 

[Royd]

If I were going to mess up the system, I'd just park a carbomb in a parking garage and take a taxi home.. Shouldn't we be searching every car that enters a garage?

Do you think that would be practical ?

Not necessarily. But when the authorities read your response I think they should be searching yours.

If I owned a parking garage and wanted to search every car I would. Don't you think that's my right ?

Gotta ask...

When was the last time the TSA stopped a "terrorist" plot that WASN'T run by one of our intelligence agencies? All I can think of is the underwear dude, and anyone that stupid is gonna get caught anyway.

Royd's right - what happens when the TSA shows up on buses? Trains? You see where this is going. The Feds (not sure if TSA or not) have already been setting up checkpoints in some states. If anyone's paranoid, it's our government. Even better: unmanned spy drones are being launched from 63 locations in 20 states. Somebody needs to start a fund to reward the first patriot to shoot one down.

No, the TSA shouldn't double its fees. It should not exist. It's inept, paranoid, violates people's rights, and is overall useless. There are many, many, MANY places besides airplanes where terrorists could strike - malls, subways, basically anywhere that's crowded. If someone REALLY wants to blow up a bunch of people, the TSA is not going to stop them. The obvious solution, of course, is to have a policeman in every home. No crime or terrorism! Or freedom!

The TSA is exactly why I hate the idea of flying. I've flown once, and I never want to again, unless it's absolutely necessary. I don't know about you, but I don't like the idea of being groped by a perverted bureaucrat that was dredged up from the bottom of society.

It is very difficult for me to comprehend the thought process that allows anyone to come to the conclusion that the United States government allowed both the horrors of 9-11 and Pearl Harbor. What makes this even more incomprehensible is that after coming to that amazing and startling conclusion one could also come to the conclusion that all was hunky dory in Nazi Germany because 99% of the Germans had no idea what was happening even though one could smell the stench of the death camps for miles around and that those who did know were powerless to do anything. That is a remarkable thought process and I am also sure that it is quite enviable in some circles

There is no thought process involved.
