Same for a cyclist biking on 2 wheels and she/he won't even need a backpack full of CBRN device, just a fanny pack - to come up to a checkpoint full of waiting sheeps waiting to be searched by the smurfs - ready to blow up .... ? Shall we consider rules to start banning hydration bottles larger than 3.4 oz next

I first heard about this nonsense last fall, but it's good to see this hit BoingBoing. Throw it right back to the "If you don't like the TSA, don't fly" crowd.

That's why it's important that we all stand up NOW!!!!!
Put an end to it before it gets worse and it will. Seems to be few who R willing. I won't fly-fat chance on ever doing it till things really change. Still I call the airlines and businesses affected and write letters and pass the word and truth around.

Germany, during WWII started taking away rights slowly from certain populations until they found their "final solution". Many Germans, and other countries heard "rumors" about it (inc. America) , but "now you don't really believe they would do something like that do you?" History repeats itself if you don't pay attention to it and learn.

I'm all for TSA showing up at greyhound, amtrak etc.
Helps put them on equal inconvenience with aviation.
Hopefully the security fee will be passed on to surface travellers as well.
For the record, in the interest of safety, the TSA should be disbanded.

- especially now that Congress is only interested in tax cuts and continuing resolution before it adjourn until 2011 and POTUS is ready to fly "exempt" on AF One with his exclusive security details to take his Hawaii vacation. 
Besides, tolls & fees are going up anyway, the average person won't "notice" it or complain .... (or, just create another poll to support it)

Hey something occurred to me. We have 3 million job openings, 14 million in need of jobs, and many of them collecting unemployment. We could create 11 million smurfs and post them everywhere. Think about it. Millions, absolute millions, are going ungroped. Why should people sit home when they could be out providing the groping that so many are missing! Brilliant!
