Better Put Tin Foil Over Your Testicles

It appears that the powers to be have decided to x-ray Americans from every angle. If you get on a plane, train, or bus, or are sitting in your car and they do drive by scan, or if you are walking down the street and they scan you for a weapon. This of course is for your personal safety. Don't worry about the cell damage or potential cancer risks.

Soldier Arrested for Trying to Bring Explosives on Flight

First of all, let me state that the young man was a 7th Group Special Forces Operator. I don’t believe that he did this intentionally, and so I am of the opinion that they should not lean on this guy who just came back from Afghanistan as a decorated soldier. I am only using this example to demonstrate that the airport he flew out of didn’t catch the C-4 and it wasn’t detected until after he landed, which in theory would demonstrate that the screeners only detect explosives 50% of the time in this instance.

It Appears That Airport Security is at an All Time High

The Transportation Security Administration declined to comment, but said they did review all allegations internally in hopes that agents will learn from them.

No they won't. Next time you are waiting in an airport, take a look at the cross section of the employees they are hiring at the TSA.

Feds: Phony U.S. Marshal made it into S.D. airport with ‘prisoner’- "We are working with law enforcement and other departments to make sure this does not happen again," Trevino said.

A Hemet man who passed himself off as a U.S. Marshal was able to enter the international airport in San Diego with a “prisoner” after convincing airport security officers he was a federal agent, a TSA spokeswoman confirmed Tuesday.

Suzanne Trevino, spokeswoman for the Transportation Security Administration, said in a telephone interview that an investigation has revealed that someone who presented “falsified law enforcement documents” was able to get past security and eventually make it to a gate with a prisoner.

Are You Sure It's Not Grandma????

Study: US Terror Suspects Mostly Young Men

quote:

A new study on homegrown terror found that most American Muslims who planned violent attacks in since 2001 were young, male U.S. citizens who became radical as part of a group.

...Experts from Duke University and the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill tallied homegrown terror cases since the Sept. 11 attacks and found 139 American Muslims had been publicly accused of planning or carrying out violence motivated by extremism.
All but one of the suspects were male and most were under age 30.

You don't say...all you TSA knuckle heads owe every grandma you harassed that were good law abiding Americans a serious apology. Now cut it out and start profiling.
