Airports are public property.

...and your point is....?????
i assume the city halls of dallas and ft worth are "public property", but i know what will happen if i wander into areas that i am not allowed...
same goes for the local jail and court house, just because it is public property, i don't have free rein to carry whatever i please into it...
most public schools are funded by tax dollars, but access to any area beyond the front office will generally get you arrested these days...
and by the same token, most military bases are funded by a greater percentage of tax dollars that any airport i know, but access to them is severely restricted...
obviously, i could go on and on, but this is by far the most ludicrous arguement i have heard yet...
last i heard, you might even get fined if you throw some trash down on a public park and/or street...
no wonder greg can't stand civil authorities of any kind...lol

You obviously have no concept of the distinction between public and private property, based on your previous post.

The word you chose to misspell is a terrific reflection on you. I bet you can't spell "patriotic" or "American" but have no problem spelling "communist", "fascist" or "Kim Jong Il"...

Again, not knowledgeable...
Better than 9/11/01...
By the way, know what you are talking about on the selectee selection process and any other TSA/Airport procedure before you voice your thoughts/opinions...

As for blaming the airlines for the selectees, that is a COP-OUT. The airlines are FORCED to provide selectees by the TSA.</font>

HOW is it better?????
What would the TSA do to an Airline that refused to provide "selectees"???
Remember, it is better to remain silent and be thought of as a moron than to speak and remove all doubt.

cameraguy, that is so true...
one thing i don't have to worry about is spiff having the guts to come to dallas and call me a communist and facist to my face-cowards such as he don't have the cajones to back up what they say....
i am wondering how long it took spiff to realize that "intelligent" wasn't in the "e"'s section of the dictionary before he caught my typo...lol

It's not worth having you go crying your pathetic little ... to your supervisor to tell me I can't fly. You are a filthy commie. When I see you mopping the floor at Burger King in the future, I'll be happy to tell you that it was your pechant for communism that got you where you are today.

well, for one thing, you don't have the courage of your convictions-despite you crying like a baby that you "never" said that you wanted "no screening", your posts on this and other threads make your intentions clear-i will admit that maybe you're not as bad as greg, who doesn't want to deal with ANY authority in his life, but everyone who reads your bilge is clear on where you stand-if nothing else, this is ample proof of you being a coward, but this is enhanced by your continual misrepresentation of anyone one you don't like as communists and facists-nine times out of ten, people who resort to that degree of name calling are too cowardly to say the same thing to a person face to face-choosing instead to hide behind the anomnimity(possible typo here-i'm too tired at the moment to check correct spelling)of a message board...
you don't like screening, fine-go thru the proper avenues to try to change the system...unhappy with the TSA-NOWS your chance to vent to both your local airport and congress, because everyone has to make a decision by about it by November of next year...
i can invite you to come to DFW in dallas and call me a communist to my face because i know you will NEVER do it-you are weak and you are base and you won't do it because you don't have any moral fortitude to say in public what you say on this board...
