Los Angeles, California (CNN) -- In response to a video of a California man's dispute with airport security officials, the Transportation Security Administration said Monday it tries to be sensitive to individuals, but everyone getting on a flight must be screened.

The video, in which software engineer John Tyner refuses an X-ray scan at the San Diego, California, airport, has sparked a debate over screening procedures.

What else would you expect from a bull dyke lesbian?

Remember that pro-abortion argument, that a "woman's body is her own"?

The left believes in the cult of the omnipotent state. In the end, there is nowhere the government can't go and nothing they can't do, provided the people are acclimatized to it.

Never again.

Do you think that they would have ever been able to make it in the military in Iraq?

What does that have to do with being willing to be treated like cattle for a service you pay good money for in the name of PC?

Obviously the morons from Jersey Shore need to get jobs as TSA idiots for the next season.

They already fist fight, wrestle people to the ground, feel people up, and speak unintelligibly.

Its a sure hit.

Abolish the TSA.

Let the airlines/airports handle security, with intelligence assistance from the FBI/CIA.

We will all be much better off.

I guess if you blow up things in the name of "religion", and threaten to continue to do so, you have First Amendment religious liberty in the US. Play nice, get screwed.

Too bad Allen West is only a first-term congressman. At least he knows and understands who the real enemy is, and is willing to say so. We need someone like him as our next president.

White House and AF1 wont help. They don’t require muslims to be searched.

Does Israel screen like this? NO.

Will the American public accept this? NO.

Washington is way, way out of touch (no pun intended)
with the people.

Not if I can help it. http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-bloggers/2627466/posts

I will not be screened/sexually assaulted/molested by someone whose face I cannot see. Bring out the cavalry...

And make sure, when you get ready for screening, that your camera phones are at the ready, complete with audio. I will NOT go quietly!!

Not at my age! Send whatever you can to YouTube and make sure it goes Viral. America needs to get PISSED!!!

I’m sorry but there is no way in Hell I’m flying until the TSA stops terrorizing people. If I were handled as some people have been handled by these thugs, there would be some folks with broken arms in my wake. Or, if I get groped by a TSA person, I’m groping in return. If they don’t like it, don’t touch my junk.

Is screening the priority or is catching terrorists the priority?

Neither. Training submissive compliance is the priority.

Moslems are to blame. Moslems are to blame. Moslems are to blame.

Another good t-shirt adage! If you MUST fly. Or if you just want to go there and gum up the process...wouldn't it be great if a couple of busloads of protesters went to an airport, bought tickets, wore defiant t-shirts, and jammed the lines? Some could opt for the groping, and moan with faux ecstasy; others might screech in outrage at molestation.....

We need to party on these goons.

Bears repeating: Moslems are to blame. Moslems are to blame. Moslems are to blame.

I agree. Repeating.

The same folk whining about airport security will be the first ones in line demanding heads to roll for lax security if another airplane is hijacked and flown into the Sears Tower.

It's funny, because I agree that creating the TSA was an unnecessary and needlessly expensive step. But I also know that enhancing-- even exaggerating-- airport screening was inevitable after 9/11. It just was, and it's naive to pretend otherwise.

I'd ask critics to answer me this: Are the muslims sick enough to pack a baby's blankets or car seat with C4? How about an old man's pants? Or an old lady's blouse? Are they sick enough to do that?

Well, are they?
