The 'We Won't Fly' Plan for Defeating TSA Porno-Scanners and Airport Rent-a-Gropers!
Dittos Rush! ^ | 11-16-10 | James

Posted on 11/16/2010 9:22:43 AM PST by iloveamerica1980

Brought to you by: http://wewontfly.com/. They are presently "campaigning" for the following in this video:

"Stop flying. Hit the airlines in the wallet until the porno-scanners are gone. If you must fly, opt out for your own health and privacy. Overwhelm the gropers until they rollback the madness. Meanwhile write letters, send emails, make phone calls, tweet and post on facebook. In other words, raise all hell."

Can you show me a case where a would-be bomber was caught by scanning? Seems all that I can remember are those that have been while in-flight, after take off, while in shipment, etc. We would be better off if we scanned crowds using trained behavior observor, questioned prospective travelers at checkin, also with trained personnel and did some rudimentary background checks on reserved passengers.

Funny, it seems to work with the Isaelis. This “would you rather...” craps don’t hunt....

Admendment IV to the US Constitution. Print it and bring it with you when you fly. Take extra copies and distribute it to others.

That reminds me of the old suppository joke. "No it ain't working, I might as well shoved it...

You and those of your ilk should be issued a lifetime supply of Depends since your fear of terrorists causes you to pee in your pants every day.

Read my prior posts. That is another goal.

The main goal is to desensitize citizens into accepting being treated as criminals. Secondary goals are to negatively impact the economy (ie help tank the airlines to nationalize them and take them over) and to make interstate travel more difficult.

I should also say a fourth goal is to target people and demonize them for objecting to this crap.

Would you rather have your private parts scanned or get blown out of the sky by a crotch bomber?

El Al, Israel's airline, has never had a "crotch bomber", and they don't do stupid porno scans or feel everybody up like the thuggist TSA. El Al operatives are trained and actually talk to people, judging their stories. But, no, we can't have any actual security. This is America.

BTW: El Al planes have NEVER been hijacked. NEVER.

Not dense at all. My remark was just a stupid joke, I connected with while thinking about the futility of being absolutely right, armed with the pertinent Constitution provision, and having cops, security, and uncaring sheeple looking at us with "Don't whine about that constitution stuff, we hate whiners"

When the courts refuse to reign in the executive branch, we see how much our entire system relies on good faith cooperation. The executive branch has the cops. It is not that government and the compliant citizens don't know, it is that they do not think we will do anything.

“Would you rather have your private parts scanned or get blown out of the sky by a crotch bomber?”

I would rather they start profiling and isolating threats and dealing with it that way. Israel doesn’t have this problem, and their threats are much more imminent.

We could fire 30,000 gropers if we used fingerprint security for check in. Links to your record and off we go.

If you are middle eastern, or muslim, you get groped. Sorry, but the Lutherans and the Amish haven’t bombed anybody lately. Police your faith and turn in the morons and we’ll stop grabbing your balls every time you fly.

The only way to be really certain is to make everyone strip down and bend over. “They are doing for our safety, after all.”

.. while they refuse to profile because it might offend certain ethnic groups. AND they refuse to control the borders.

NOTE: Israel have been very successful and they are hated by Muslims. Lets look at what they are doing and duplicate it.

Plus they have Air Marshals who are prepared to kill if need be. And, they claim to be able to react quickly. So if there is a threat, it is over with quickly.

I always “beep”, so always get the wand and pat-down. I’d much prefer a male agent than one of the mega-creepy female drone dykes. Since there are more male agents than female I usually have to wait for a very long time to be checked. Many times I’ve told them that a male agent would be OK, but they won’t accommodate that.

Isn’t missing a flight - with many others with the same objective - rather insignificant in the scheme of things?

Terrorists used to hijack planes with guns and grenades, so everybody else had to go through metal detectors.

Then a terrorist tried to blow-up a plane with a shoe bomb, so everybody else had to take off our shoes.

Then a terrorist tried to blow-up a plane with liquid explosives, so everybody else had to stop carrying liquids or gels on the plane.

Then a terrorist tried to blow-up a plane with an underwear bomb, so everybody else had to be radioactively strip searched or manually crotch groped.

Next when a terrorist tries to blow-up a plane with a rectal bomb, are you going to be the first to submit to body cavity searches?

Then terrorists hijacked planes using plastic handled box cutters, so everybody else had to have our nail clippers confiscated.

Yup, all because the idiots refuse to profile.
