Three types of people. You forgot the delusional and those that work for TSA.

Mrs Halls 120 doesn't travel as much as I do, and in the past, has looked at my anti-TSA rants as a bit over the top. However, as of late she is traveling more, and she now understands why I feel the way I do.

My mother will not travel by air. Period. Due to the "invasive" security at the checkpoints. It's been about 8 years since my parents traveled. I know plenty of others that are disgusted by the agency - even folks that might be called "sheeple" as it relates to other (non-TSA) matters.

My mother changed from flying to multiple international destinations each year with my father, down to two. She just cannot take the "crap" anymore.

When it comes to TSA, I'd suggest that a small location in Massachusetts with zip code 01970 might be more appropriate.

Still waiting....

In other words, are you saying that the TSA doesn't have a constitutional basis to do a lot of what the TSA does? Not sure how else to read your use of the word "some" above.

To be fair, not everyone hated Stalin and his ways to "control" people. What a shame that too.

We need a pool for when this happens. I've got never.

Naah. TSA give witch burners a bad name...

I do not post a lot in this forum, and I have not read every response that follows your post, its probably an accurate presumption that 99.9 percent of the many replies to your post were totally the opposite to what you have stated.

The very people you have asked are the very same people who have to put up with your employer and fellow smurfs crap everytime they go to work, they are not going to stand there and tell you when one of TSA's "finest":rolleyes: , askes about their opinion of your employer because THEY HAVE TO DEAL WITH YOU EVERYTIME THEY GO TO WORK.

I know a LOT of airline employees, pilots, flight attendants, gate/ticket counter agents, ramp workers and living near the airport count an equal number of them as neighbors, and every time over the years since your employer came into being every one of them I have spoken with or overheard say the same basic thing, without exception, 100 percent , which is your employer and your fellow smurfs do NOTHING, do NOTHING to make us safer, NOTHING that adds to security.

I do know know what police officers think of your employer, but I would say it probably follows very closely what airline employees views are.

You actually believe these people are going to tell you what they honestly feel when your standing there with your tin badge and smurf shirt asking them about their opinion of your employer and coworkers?, if you do, then I would try to cut down on the amount of the TSA kool-aid you have been drinking:rolleyes::td:.

One last thing, according to your post "The very constitution that you say is being trashed when you fly is also the basis for which TSA has to do some of what it does", I dare you to show where in the constitution there is any basis for anything TSA does.

eyecue has "cut & run". Most likely will not be back.

I wonder if there is any forum (other than PV) on the internet where he would have gotten sympathy, support, or honest, positive feedback. :o

Only the brave stand to face opposition.

Still waiting too....

Looks like your observation is accurate.
