It's only escalating because TSA is overstepping. It's finally reached the point where people are pushing back, and they will continue to push back, harder & harder.

If you're uncomfortable with what's coming, you have the option of seeking employment with a more respectable organization.

Indeed, this is very good news.

On another front, a woman who'd been on my flight ran to catch up with me as we were going down the escalators in STL terminal #2 -- she wanted one of my Nude-O-Scope brocheres. :) People want the truth that they're not getting from TSA's Propaganda Village.

I believe that it is only a matter of time before before this really escalates into something that no one wants.

I dont believe that would happen. After the first punch is thrown, the passenger would be swarmed.

and now your saying this.



By who a bunch of clerks who are really out of shape? I Highly doubt that, I have been ganged up on a few times and have yet to lose that fight. Be careful jumping someone who looks unassuming or weak, your more likely to get your butt whipped badly.

The enhanced patdown is nothing more then a sexual assault and as such under law a person is allowed to defend themselves accordingly. Swarming someone is likely to end up in that person taking out the swarmers, due to the sympathetic nervous system taking over. The "Im just doing my job" defense doesnt fly as breaking the law while doing your job is still breaking the law.

In addition to writing letters, I am thinking we should start to influence the TSA's "service".

In the past they've dropped parts of the process that take too much time--it annoys the airlines.

So, I'm thinking we should demand that our pat-downs be conducted in a private room (as they tell us is our right) and we should also demand a witness present. That would slow down the process enough that we might get some response.

We can slow them down individually, or we could target specific airports on a rotating basis.

Any thoughts?

Before my last flight, my wife was done with the groping before mine had begun, so I asked her if the guy was good looking enough to make it a threesome. I don't think the TSA groper got it, but she and I had a good laugh. As he rubbed me down, I kept telling him, ooooh that feels good. He kept rubbing harder each time I said it --- actually to the point that it did feel good.

Finally TSA is meeting with resistance, much like the writer of this article:
