Coffee, Tea, or TSA groin grope?

[ELVIS]

So, I guess that means it's hogwash...

[Nitro Express]

If Obama was smart he would step in and do something about the TSA because too many conservatives and liberals hate what's going on. Politicians can play one side off the other but when both sides hate it, you better get on with doing some thing about it or pay the next election.

Everyone in the Obama Administration is fucking loony. It's ok to photograph & run your hands on peoples genitals & breasts...but AZ police aren't allowed to ask for some beaners ID card.

It's obvious they don't give a ratt's ass about real security. It's obvious they are power hungry, abusive nut bags.

[Seshmeister]

So, I guess that means it's hogwash...

No just this bit.

With such expensive counter-terrorism activities, both in terms of the hard-pressed taxpayers’ money and civil liberties, one would think that bombs were going off all over America. But, of course, they aren’t. There has not been a successful terrorist act since 9/11, and thousands of independent experts doubt the government’s explanation of that event.

My brother in law works for L3 Communications. He's rolling in the dough and has no idea we are in an economic decline. His job is secure and he just got a raise.

It's also about fear.

There are a lot of people who get promoted to one job higher than they can do. You meet these people all the time in government and they are usually shitting themselves about losing their jobs because on a level deep down they know they aren't good enough and they have bills to pay like the rest of us.

Because they are shitting themselves, these people are terrified about being the person who the blame comes down on for anything. They picture themselves being interviewed

'So you gave a directive that children should not be patted down?'
'Well..yes...but'
'So do you accept that you are the one responsible for the bomb that went off today when a device was set off strapped to a child'
'But..but..'

A lot of what people seem to think is Obama, or clever government trying to destroy your lives is just scared middle aged officials clinging on for retirement.

What you can do is try and keep rights through legislation or the constitution but don't expect them through procedures because the frightened bureaucrat will stretch them to the limit. As will the cop trying to up his conviction figures.

Here's my first question...

Why exactly are airports being made hyper-secure ??

Yeah, and everything you said is all the more reason to rethink this whole security charade...

[Seshmeister]

Here's my first question...

Because governments are always reactive rather than proactive.

As I've said before, all a would be terrorist needs to do is try to get on a plane with a stick of dynamite up his ass and it's internal exams for all of us...

[Jagermeister]

Here's my first question...

They don't. Just another example of the government shoveing something down your throat whether you like it or not.

So where shall we draw the line ??

Is airplane security somehow making the world a safer place ??

[Seshmeister]

Not at all. It's just security theatre.

It's purpose if there is one is to make people feel better and that things are under control.

Kind of like religion.
