Airport screeners harassing women across the country

UNREAL HOW THESE PUKES DON'T REALIZE THAT GRANDMA IN HER WHEELCHAIR IS NOT A THREAT. WE ARE LOOKING FOR ARAB MEN AGES 15-45.

HARRASSING WOMEN DOES NOT MAKE ME FEEL ANY SAFER. NOR DOES IT MAKE ME SAFER. "RANDOMIZED" SEARCHES ARE AS USEFUL TO OUR SECURITY AS RANDOMIZED WARS OR RANDOMIZED SHOOTING IN WARS.

YOU DO NOT TELL THE MARINES TO SHOOT 1 IN 10 ISLAMO-FASCIIST TERRORISTS WITH GUNS POINTED AT YOU. YOU SHOOT THEM ALL. YOU KILL THEM ALL. YOU DO NOT TELL THEM TO SHOOT 1 IN 10 WOMEN IN THE STREETS.

THIS NONSENSE IS DRIVING ME CRAZY AND POLITICAL CORRECTNESS IS BRINGING DOWN OUR COUNTRY.

SOON IT WILL INVADE OUR MILITARY EVEN MORE AND TRAITORS LIKE THE NBC REPORTER WILL EXPEDITE OUR DOOM.

I read that the reason why the hijackers were not screened more when they got on the WTC planes was the airports were afraid
to single out any race or group.

Seems to me we singled out Afghanistan as where some of our problems are and proceeded to kill people.

Seems to me that singling out a profile for national security subjecting them to the same thing we are subjecting grandma to would also hlep. If we are going to spend billions of dollars on such a thing one would think we need it to be effective.

i was a little confused by your post,dr......couldn`t figure out where you are coming from....

but,from what i understand,the two planes that went down in russia recently were a result of women hiding bomb paraphernalia underneath their clothing....

imo,it`s smart to allow an extra couple minutes....and a little indignity...to make sure that you get to where you are going safely....particularly during the holiday season when travel is at it`s peak....

hopefully,nobody`s moronic enough to believe that this is some plot by the government to steal civil liberties...by checking a little more closely...trying to be a little safer....

what benefit the government would get,other than trying to ensure it`s citizen`s safety during the holidays,is a mystery to me...

but,you`ll hear more bitching from the idiots....

i`d rather take a few extra minutes than find out i`m sitting on a plane with some crazy woman with a bomb in her bra....

 

[dr. freeze]

How do you feel safer by checking women and allowing 90% of Arab men to go right through the line?

 

[gardenweasel]

all i`m saying is ,as far as i`m concerned,check everybody.....

what makes you think that women aren`t just as capable of toting a bomb under their clothes as a man?....

it hasn`t happened here....yet....of course, there was a first time for flying planes into skyscrapers...

why are women excluded?....palestinian women AND children have been used....although to be fair,in some instances,i don`t think the children understood what they were doing...very sad...

Good point IO.

i heard he flew to detroit for the basketball feeding frenzy......a shyster`s "disneyland"...

I agree that our Arab friends should be double checked. More should be done on security. Most of it is just a joke anyway. In Boston they checked the subways while the Democratic Convention was in town. But before and since then there has not been any checks at all. Doesn't make sense to me. :shrug:

Woman, 79, brings a gun to the airport

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS


FORT LAUDERDALE - A 79-year-old woman was arrested at Fort Lauderdale International Airport on Tuesday when screeners found an unloaded gun in her carry-on bag, sheriff's officials said.

Margaret Anderson of Bonita Springs was planning to board a flight on Bahamas Air when an X-ray scanner revealed a handgun inside the bag.

Anderson told Broward deputies she had forgotten the gun was in the bag. She was booked into Broward County Jail and later released on $1,000 bond.

If convicted, she faces up to five years in prison and a $5,000 fine.

Deputies found a single shot Colt Derringer in a gun case built to resemble a hardcover book, with seven .22 caliber bullets in the case next to the weapon, the sheriff's office said.

Kind of shoots down your theory doesn't it Dr Freeze?

 

[dr. freeze]

Sure does.....since the x-ray scanner caught it on a senile old lady.....

brilliant deduction Sherlock

[dr. freeze]

absolutely no accountability to the people....your government at "work"
