So pedophiles can grope children in the name of airline safty. I bet NAMBLA is drooling at this new job created just for them.

Travel is a RIGHT. Flying included. Travel by Common Carrier — which all airlines are — is a more protected right.

Some who don’t know this from that say it is not a right. They claim it is a “privilege”. That is incorrect, it is a fundamental right.

I refuse to fly or do business with anyone who treats people like criminals.

Well, the scanner would likely have picked up the Panty Bomber’s explosive.

But, he didn’t have to go thru TSA. He got on the plane in Nigeria & never had to be screened again.

We’ll know for sure on November 24.

(National Opt-Out Day. And yes - it is the Wednesday before Thanksgiving. And yes - it is the busiest flight day of the year.)

Sorry, too late to go back. Islamists have determined how we must behave (less freedom) and now Big Government is taking advantage of the “crisis”—instead of killing the bad guys.

I believe the TSA “no video policy” is to cover their incompetence and not secuirty.

If anything, the no video will be stepped up even more.

Perhaps the Obamaloon should have hired someone with greater than room temp IQ, and we might give more credence to their statements.

Big Sis is an idiot.

But....so is Obama.

I’ve never had a time when I’ve held our government in such contempt.

Two things on the whole TSA-pat down affair:

1) Where’s fat-boy Moore on this one? Sounds like the greatest mock-u-mentarian in history would do great with this problem.

2) If I were subjected to a pat-down like this (luckily I avoided it last week when I was traveling), I’d be tempted to do a little reverse psychology and make like I ENJOYED the invasive pat-down. Can you imagine the reaction of the TSA folks if you made out like it was pleasurable, rather than invasive???

Put one of these in your drawers. Walk through proudly.

House to house searches for guns, bombs and drugs would make us “safer”. They still don’t do it, for the same reason they should not be able to do this.

It’s all about unreasonable search. And it’s a constitutional thing. No probable cause, so search.

Even headline writers use the most newly minted ghetto slang — “junk”? My junk sits out at the curb every Tuesday night. Not that I want to “disrespect” my “junk” or anything.

I bet you these clowns on CNN defending the TSA in this video were also vocal critics of the Patriot Act. The hypocrisy is palpable (no pun intended).

Rush briefly mentioned this San Diego incident at the start of his radio show today.

What are the chances the new “discreet” pat-downs are just a ploy by Big Sis to get us to conform to the body scanners? After all, which one is more humiliating? Being fondled in public or having someone in another room see your “junk”? Both are incredibly offensive, but perhaps this is a calculated tactic.

One can only hope we are in the midst of a GROWING REBELLION AGAINST THE TSA!

I bet there are a lot of guys who, like me, could probably shrug off some TSA idiot putting his hand on our crotch. But I could not and won't shrug off that same TSA idiot touching my wife or teenage daughters or my elderly mother. That's what this fight is about.

Bump to the top and three cheers for this guy's resolve.

When will body cavity searches become mandatory for air travel?
