Well what happened that lead to the tsa creation???it was a few years ago, but it's still fresh in my mind !

How about we have security that observes passengers for suspicious behavior instead of treating everyone like a terrorist?

You act as if they don't ?

So your solution: "just hassle the brown people ".

Only a racist would associate "suspicious behavior" with "brown people".

A few have privatized their security. I hope the trend continues.

Is it ? After 911 the Feds protected the industry by paying out who knows how much to the victims so that the airlines wouldnt be sued into oblivion.

Fine . How exactly does your plan work? No checking bags, no metal detection. Just the keystone cops using xmen mental powers to weed out bad guys ?

They paid off victims of the airplanes? I know they did the ones that died in the Pentagon, but that's all I know

Ban 'carry-ons' until the TSA fixes things. All the 'cheapskates' (which is most of the flying public) will then complain about having to pay a whole $25 for checking a bag.
This will temporarily improve things, but 'cheapskates' will be outraged..........so let the 'cheapskates' suffer in long lines and miss their flights as cheap is, as cheap does......................

Define "suspicious behavior".

"That guy's wearing a towel on his head!"

The TSA failed several penetration attempts, and so they are under stricter protocols. That's why the lines are longer now.

The gubmint didn't increase staffing commensurate with the increased security requirements.

So only "suspicious" people go through security? For everyone else, what, a free for all?

What makes someone "suspicious "?

You know...I worked for the TSA in 2003 after I retired. Had an older woman with a metal hip set off my metal detector and had to be screened personally. After a barrage of abuse from she and her husband, once such comment was about the "rag head" that was the TSA lead at my checkpoint, I thanked them for their patience and suggested next time they should consider travel by rail.

That "rag head" she referred to was a Sikh.

That's exactly who they think are "acting suspicious"

As usual, the gubmint creates more problems than they solve.

Well here we are, the Right so desperately want a 9/11 type terrorist attack on American soil so they can blame Obama that they want to cripple airline security. The Right are the most despicable America-hating scum ever created in the image of Gawwwwwwd-da.

Arkansas GOP head: We need more 'attacks on American soil' so people appreciate Bush

In his first interview as the chairman of the Arkansas Republican Party, Dennis Milligan told a reporter that America needs to be attacked by terrorists so that people will appreciate the work that President Bush has done to protect the country.

"At the end of the day, I believe fully the president is doing the right thing, and I think all we need is some attacks on American soil like we had on [Sept. 11, 2001]," Milligan said to the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette, "and the naysayers will come around very quickly to appreciate not only the commitment for President Bush, but the sacrifice that has been made by men and women to protect this country."
