I wonder if perverts will start flying more just so they can be groped by TSA?

I believe this all plays into the government's plan to destroy the airline industry.

They don't want the commoners flying around.

Combine Isreal’s profiling with super-sniffing German Shepherds.

What happens when the terrorists blow up some malls?

We’ll be groped at mall entrances?

I’d like to see a comparison of the number of people flying before and after. I’m surprised I haven’t yet.

You know Obama wants 'Ameroflot Airlines'. Regardless of their endgame, the fight is on.

Someone suggested German Shepherds. Great idea. You can’t fool the sniffers on those puppies.

You don't have to be a German Shepherd to smell a Muslim approaching.

Beagles have even better sniffers.

There is, and probably will be, an arms race where the dogs know nothing yet about the odor of the explosive du jour. While not perfect, however, beagles are used very commonly in customs to catch contraband.

You are correct, I was in Baghdad a couple of years ago and heard the story about a dog who had sniffed out a bomb in the tank of a full sewage truck that was used to clean out portable toilets. I would not want to be the guy who had to recover that one.

What we need is about a 100,000 people who don’t care if they miss a plane - or can go to the airport long before their plane leaves - to all descend on Reagan in DC and refuse to be photographed but will put up with a grope.

Traffic at Reagan would come to a halt since the grope takes so long (been there, now engaged).

Cloward-Pivan for our side

The muslims would complain about the dogs. Couldn't have that......

Remember him saying way back when (maybe 6-8 years ago) that he thought ID chips in kids were a great idea and any good/loving parent would know that it was best.

This is possibly where this is all going - implanted IDs

Really think this whole things is a setup. Even rush’s buddy Rudy in Pink was way connected to a big ID chip company way back when. Both republican and dems want this. We are being played by both sides - for awhile now.

Is it acceptable and encouraged that a TSA government official can do something to an American citizen that US military personnel cannot do to a member of the Taliban?

It’s cray cray world.

Good idea. I suggest that be done on November 24th at airports across the Nation. That sort of activist protest of TSA would be sure to get plenty of MSM TV coverage.

I wonder if hogs could be trained to sniff bombs. I recall reading about hogs that could detect buried truffles.
