This is going no where if you are going to be impossible. I mean you are putting "farting" on the same level as theft!!! I'd rather have someone fart in my face than steal my hard earned money as would you. If you say otherwise, you are a dirty lair. You are doing it because he has a valid point and that is the best you have. Come back to this conversation when you can quit being so ridiculous.
Calm down a bit, eh? This is just a discussion.

I do have a question for you though. Since when was theft one of the reasons that airport security stopped allowing non-flyers through security?

Honestly, I think the mere mention of theft is a big, red herring in this discussion having to do with TSA security at airports which we all know has to do with terrorism.
Thanks, oneant. You are correct in interpreting the point of my post, which was to illustrate that eyecue's comment about theft is really incidental to what constitutes legitimate security. Thus, the deliberate ridiculousness on my part of juxtaposing farting and theft.

Speaking of discussion, I would appreciate it, United737522, if you'd edit your personal attack on me. Calling someone a dirty liar is TOS violation. But since I'm party to this discussion with you, I'll have to recuse myself from moderating it now.
