- RedSkies, on 04/16/2008, -7/+59Please keep taking away my privacy.
I feel oh so much safer now. - RRunner316, on 04/16/2008, -6/+55giggity
- orblivion, on 04/16/2008, -2/+48I'll make sure and have a boner when I step through.
- WraTH017, on 04/16/2008, -3/+48What happens with underage passengers, and the airport security people checking them out? Can we put them in jail?
- Garlik, on 04/16/2008, -3/+47Will they see my anti-totalitarian tattoo?
- briansearles, on 04/16/2008, -2/+45Gotta motivate those federal airport workers somehow.
- jjustice, on 04/16/2008, -15/+55Virtual strip searches. This is an outrage. "The traveler's face is pixelated and the image is not stored, the TSA said." Ok, then, that makes me feel *so* much better.
- hayzeus, on 04/16/2008, -3/+41Will my balls be pixelated?
- mytibt, on 04/16/2008, -2/+40I'd play "boxers or briefs?" as the travelers come up
- cowsgonemadd3, on 04/16/2008, -8/+41Its just stupid this whole mess. Borders wide open and airports secured. This is invasion of privacy for sure....
- inactive, on 04/16/2008, -6/+33Let us all remember, those who supposedly hijacked the planes on 9/11 did it with BOXCUTTERS. Not guns. Not knives. Not bombs. We Americans are lifeless, dull and apathetic creatures. Our government keeps pulling the wool over our eyes and we take it....we take getting screwed in the ass time and time again just as long as they don't take away our HDTVs, World of Warcraft, and pornography. America is dead.
- lordewoks, on 04/16/2008, -1/+26"But passengers electing not to go through the millimeter wave machine will be given the option of the pat-down." Hmm, probing hands or probing eyes.....
- Protoss, on 04/16/2008, -2/+23Well yeah but you usually have some sort of trust for your doctor, or girl/boyfriend.
I don't care about this much, just saying that there is a huge difference. - lordspidey, on 04/16/2008, -3/+23Thats just stupid...
They wont let you take a nail clipper onboard but during international flights you can buy 2 litre glass vodka bottle.
Airport security is ***** stupid and if someone wanted to inflict harm there are easier and more effective ways. - spongya77, on 04/16/2008, -3/+23The airplanes themselves are falling apart, because, guess what, they are not inspected. (OK now it came out, and they are forced to do something.) The cargo of the aircrafts is ~still~ not inspected, yet they worry about 1 ounce of mouthwash, and are hell-bent on looking at my wiener. Talk about mixed message.
- inactive, on 04/16/2008, -1/+20Dude, take a look around you at the average person.
This job sounds like hell. - sifuchar, on 04/16/2008, -1/+17FTA: "90 percent of the travelers in Phoenix preferred the imaging machine to a pat-down."
So would you rather be gawked at or felt up? Personally, I'd prefer to just lay down on the X-ray belt instead of emptying my pockets and semi-disrobing. It'd save me 1/2 hour at the airport. - opticwind, on 04/16/2008, -4/+18"...passengers sent to secondary screening will be given the option of a pat-down or a trip through the body imager."
Don't be outraged if you still have a choice. - AriaStar, on 04/16/2008, -2/+16Big Brother wants to see me naked. Isn't that kind of like incest?
How about we just outlaw clothing so nothing can be concealed at all? - malex, on 04/16/2008, -0/+14Are they now?
- inactive, on 04/16/2008, -1/+14The bar for becoming a doctor is a bit higher than an airport screener, so it's unlikely some perv is going to become a doctor just to look at naked people.
- Pstall, on 04/16/2008, -3/+15Mmm well at least getting to see people naked might make the security screeners pay a little more attention.
- casek, on 04/16/2008, -9/+21constitution? bill of rights? guess those don't apply anymore.
- m0tbaillie, on 04/16/2008, -1/+13Make sure you tuck it back for protection. The last thing I want/need are "millimeter waves" coursing through my dick/balls.
- cowsgonemadd3, on 04/16/2008, -1/+10I am straight and have never played that game....
- jaznova, on 04/16/2008, -1/+10Resulting images NSFW. Unless of course you work for TSA
- BossKey, on 04/16/2008, -0/+9Watch out for the law of unintended consequences. Given America's average physique, security screeners might become motivated to pay less attention.
- briansearles, on 04/16/2008, -0/+8I only have around me BEAUTIFUL people.
That means all of you. - Kinsbane, on 04/16/2008, -0/+8Easy way to solve this:
Just go to the airport naked. - DreKor, on 04/16/2008, -2/+10Can I, since I neither know you nor am I near you, see the body scans of your wife, girlfriend, or daughter? If I have an official badge from an on-the-job training program, does that make it better?
- spect3r, on 04/16/2008, -1/+9/puts on his robe and wizard hat
- zombird, on 04/16/2008, -1/+8"Those who would give up essential liberty to purchase a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety"
- dave122, on 04/16/2008, -4/+11That would be correct if the TSA was controlled by the airlines and not the government, but since it isn't, you are kind of an idiot...
- DreKor, on 04/16/2008, -0/+7Having microwaves directed at your junk makes you feel more comfortable? Tell you what, you can go through the machine for me every time I get stopped for additional screening, which is more often that random chance would seem to suggest.
- geekmansworld, on 04/16/2008, -2/+9"We call it the snuke detector..."
- DreKor, on 04/16/2008, -0/+7The government sure as hell can force them to allow these tests. The tests are carried out by TSA employees or government contractors, not private sector schmucks. If an airport decides not to allow these tests, all their flights can be grounded by the FAA. An airport is kind of worthless without flights.
- x0rcist, on 04/16/2008, -1/+7What a waste of money that our country doesn't have. We have the option of a pat down anyway so why not just stick to that? The only thing that could come from these is more controversy over invasion of privacy. What a stupid ***** country, sadly it's the only place I can live and have an accent that I don't find funny.
- BossKey, on 04/16/2008, -0/+6Terrorists might still hide things without clothes, so the next step would be body cavity searches at the airport.
What is the sound of a thousand gloves snapping? - sgglynn, on 04/16/2008, -1/+7"and everyone is allowed to fly"
Sadly, that's not true.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/No_Fly_List - PopcornDave, on 04/16/2008, -0/+6That's the first thing that I wondered. If you were to scrawl some message on your torso or back, would they be able to see it? And then does it become a first amendment issue since you're not on a plane yet but rather going through government mandated security - where you should reasonably expect to have a first amendment right.
- TheUngod, on 04/16/2008, -0/+6Well, yes...assuming your balls fit into a one pixel area of the screen.
- dafunkmonster, on 04/16/2008, -0/+6Better yet, play "beef or taquito"...
- TheUngod, on 04/16/2008, -0/+6Boxers or briefs gives you only 2 options. What about those of us that want it to breathe?
- kuchino, on 04/16/2008, -0/+5"I'm sorry miss Angelina Jolie, we need to do a extra security screening for you"
- RudeTurnip, on 04/16/2008, -1/+6Does fuzzy count?
- AriaStar, on 04/16/2008, -3/+8They're NOT INFORMING you of that choice. They supposedly will have as ign somewhere, but if you don't see it, then it's a choice you don't know you have.
- AriaStar, on 04/16/2008, -1/+6Why not just outlaw clothes? I mean, my mom changed my diaper and my doctor takes care of my health, so I guess everyone else should see me naked too.
- AriaStar, on 04/16/2008, -1/+6Probably not. So flip 'em the bird.
- RationalBeaver, on 04/16/2008, -0/+5Going to the airport with a hot girl? Prepare for delays. Long delays.
- anarchyinthekr, on 04/16/2008, -0/+5there goes storing nuggets in my underwear
