Nice load of BULL$HIT TSORon. If TSA personnel and selected airport personnel are not screened, each and EVERY time they enter the "secure" or "sterile" spaces of an airport, then TSA, or their anonymous representatives on these forums, CANNOT claim they are screening "everyone."

Are YOU screened EVERY time you re-enter the "sterile" area? And I mean walking through the WTMD and taking off your shoes.

Yes or no, Ron.

"Why do they screen everyone?"

Why do you call yourself a security professional?

My answered says no needing to be screened for everyone at the checkpoint. Because TSA is not capable rules at airport. I don't see any kind of specifiable info from TSA. Because another countries does not have any screened all passengers to make sure the aviation security are taking own responsibility. This is obvious for passengers need to kept the shoes on go through at metal dectetor.

First, you know, you really gotta feel sorry for Ron. He just digs his hole deeper and deeper and deeper with every one of his posts.

Ron, how many of the incidents to which you linked took place at an airport? I'll give you a hint: the answer is a number less than 1.

Second, each and every article to which you link just reinforces the need to screening each and every person who enters the secure area of an airport. Each of the suicide bombers was just a seemingly normal guy or gal, with the possible exception of the Down syndrome child, who never drew attention to him or herself - probably not a great deal unlike ramp workers, food service workers, TSA screeners. That's why EVERYONE who enters the "secure" area needs to be screened. Otherwise, the area is not secure.

Ron, do yourself a big favor. Stop posting. Or do you like being made to look the fool?

Ron - I looked at each article. Funny, I didn't see "airport" mentioned anywhere.

You guys at TSA Public Affairs need some better material.

Shall we screen everyone on Earth every day?

Without looking I'll bet none of the Perps in the OP's articles tried to go thru a screening first.

The problem is the fallacy of the OP's claim. Screening the bombers mentioned in the articles would ONLY prevent them exploding 1. in an airport sterile area or 2. on a plane.
If, of course, the non-LEO TSOs could call over a LEO to disarm the perp faster than the perp could push a button and take out the checkpoint. Not very likely.

No TSA procedures (not even the over-hyped BDOs) would keep any of the OP perps from destroying the most vulnerable part of the current system: the huge packed mass of people backed up before the TDC. I've seen well over 100 people backed up at MCO snaking back and forth, with another group just across the aisle. In holding pens with glass/plastic floor to ceiling walls that will turn into unbelieveable flying projectiles. As many victims as a full 757. (Confined, thus more dangerous than a typical airline checkin line in a big open high roofed area)

The most dangerous part of the current system is waiting huddled masses due to the slowness (i.e. unnecessary Shoe/Water Carnival) and mission creep (i.e. blacklighting IDs) of the TSA.

Some things should be left to the Propaganda Professionals. TSORon, you're no Blogdad Bob. And I know Blogdad Bob. I should, I invented his nickname. If you're nice, I'll make up one for you, too.

The OP's claim must be an inside joke, or tongue in cheek, or just a bad attempt at forum humour.

No sane, critically thinking American, with over an 8th grade public education would post such a contradictory load of non-sense. Especially when it is a fact not everyone is screened, thus posting links to non-sequitur articles and stating the opposite must be a post in jest.

Let's all give Ron a chance to come back and laugh with us before we presume he really meant to sound so fecklessly inane in that posting.

We all need a good laugh sometimes.^

Ciao,
FH
