Say, you got me to thinking, are they going to feel up thousands of cruisers every weekend?
I mean, cruise ships are at risk, right?

They are already randomly hitting train stations. So those telling us to take a train, well that won't be an option soon either.
Eventually, we will be told, stay at home if you don't like being sexually assaulted.
In the bolded area lies the wisdom. This is exactly what the government is after.
A population that is kept from freedom to travel is a whole lot easier to keep track of and control. Eventually, every man, woman and child in this country, and eventually the world, will be able to be located at the drop of a hat...no matter who they are.
Harm None
Peace

The next time I fly, I intend on acting suspicious as hell and wearing a kilt with no fruit of the looms on. I will insist on have a female TSA officer check me out by claiming I am a pre-op.

everyone knows kilts should be worn regimental. only problem i see, is i just bet there is a policy that only males can only check males and females only check females. just to try to avoid the call of actual sexual harassment. but hey if you can convince them more power too you. by the way don't tell them you are regimental, let them discover THAT fact for themselves. could be rather amusing. also i know of no rule or law stating you must wear underwear. have a friend unobtrusively film it, would give us all a much needed laugh.
now THAT'S the way to protest if you feel that pat downs are removing your rights. way to go.

I am goddamned scotsman, and a LT. in the USN. My family has always had the motto: "what you lack in steel, make up for in guile"
If my jewels are gonna be felt up, it better frickin be by a woman.
Otherwise, some TSA lard-asses are going to hospital, with as much injury as I can inflict, not a small degree, god-willing

Great chuckle - thanks. Has anyone given any consideration to the though that just perhaps these might be average folks who are looking to earn a pay check?
