    I wasn't aware this was a game - except maybe to the nuts with the box cutters.

    Richard put down 9/11 - I'm not sure why. I said box cutters because that was the weapon of choice on that date. They should/would have been seen by a metal detector.

    I should have stayed out of it. I think he's just trying to make a point about body scans and pat downs.

    Perhaps if the United States had kept their noses out of every other country's business over the years, we wouldn't be having this discussion. Just a thought.

    It isn't you that's playing games here. Sorry if I left that impression Grace.
    That was not my intention. My apologies.

    No need for you to apologize, liz. I shouldn't have snapped back at you as I did.

    Your first sentence says it all

    How often do the TSA agents change those latex gloves? If they are groping passengers, they should be changed between each victim - think of the exchange of germs and possibly bugs

    and the reason they got on the plane with the box cutters was not because of a defect or inefficiency with the TSA screening equipment... it was because box cutters were allowed. I guess they figured nothing bad could happen from box cutters

    The thing that gets me (I'd laugh if it weren't such a scary thought) is we are willing to implement these intrusive measures that are basically stripping us (no pun intended) of our rights to look for something the hijackers on 9/11 NEVER EVEN USED when that event is supposedly what we are being saved from

    They didn't use BOMBS. There has not been a successful airplane BOMBING since the 80s. if we are SO afraid of bomings then why didn't they start doing this in the 80's when there were ACTUAL BOMBINGS?

    it's unreal how AFRAID people are of something that hasn't even happened in over 20 years (in the US) that they are willing to give up their bodies for the illusion of safety.

    So WHAT exactly justifies this unbelievable infringement of peoples rights and privacy?

    The reason I said, "9/11"?

    That was the answer to the woman in the cartoon.

    She asked why she had to go thru a security screening and the TSA worker's answer was 9/11.


    Plus my president spoke from Portugal and he said the patdowns were OK.

    Since he is in charge, I believe him.

    I always believe in the current president. It's when they try to act 'political' that they scare me.



    This woman in this video/cartoon.

    Again, Salty language warning.....
