Aviation Director & Airport Chief Says TSA Security Is No Better With Scanners & Pat Downs

This really is a must read.

Finally a voice of sanity in this insanity.

For all those who are claiming that we need to be subjected to Intrusive Scanners, and offensive Pat Downs in the name of "National Security".

In the end, ultimate responsibility for security may fall on airline passengers

True security is me knowing what I'm doing and you not knowing," he said.

"If a pilot is willing to go down with an airplane, how can you stop him?"

Orr is respected in aviation as the longtime director of Charlotte/Douglas, the country's 11th busiest airport in terms of 2009 passenger totals. Listen to what he has to say about TSA.

Aviation Director Jerry Orr said the federal government should focus on "looking for potential perpetrators" rather than inspecting everybody, sometimes intrusively. People must realize that "No matter you much you spend, you cannot 100% guarantee security," so it is worth considering that at some level security may be too intrusive, or too slow, or too expensive to provide, he said.

On the cost side, Orr noted, the number of workers employed by the TSA in Charlotte has tripled from around 150 at the time of the September 11 terrorist attacks, yet security is no better

While I commend the man on his ethics sooner or later he will be shut down.

Whether he is fired, forced to resign, or found dead of "apparent suicide".

Of course, let us not forget, the "convenient car accident" when his brakes "fail".

Because the Mainstream Media lost their balls a long, long time ago.

They used to do hard-hitting expose's and they used to uncover the lies.

Now they do not wander off the garden path and will not keep Government in check.

Especially not with someone like Obama in the White House.

He would have to make a major mistake before they would attack anything he is behind.

Of course, then they would crucify him, something they do easily.
