WTF!?! TSA announces they will use DOGS as a SCREENING TOOL | |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 679671 United States 11/22/2010 08:32 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | That'll go over well, I'm sure. Jewish antipathy to dogs is longstanding, as Rabbi Judah Elijah Schochet points out in "Animal Life in Jewish Tradition," (KTAV, 1984): "The dog is one of the few animals almost invariably spoken of in negative and derogatory terms [in Jewish Scripture]. There apparently was little personal relationship between biblical man and the dog.. Dogs are described as being noisy [Psalms 59:7-14], greedy [Isaiah 56:11], stupid [Isaiah 56:10], filthy [Proverbs 26:11].... The term "dog" is applied as an insult to humans [I Kings 22:38]. Furthermore, "dog" appears to have been a derogatory designation for male prostitutes [Deuteronomy 23:19]." |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 989458oh give me a break. the dogs will be used to intimidate people. I love dogs...but some people are afraid of dogs and this is just another layer of psychological abuse against the American People. The War on Terror is contrived and futile concept. |

Jewish?? oh please..they been using dogs for years at the airport. don't think it's the Jews who will be offended by the dogs. |
Housedad GOD User ID: 1003657 United States 11/22/2010 08:53 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | you just KOW that the muslems will be exempted from the dog sniffing. As they all find dogs offensive due to their religeon. They might as well have a free and open gate bypass for the muslems and all the other security for us. I am really getting sick of this. There's always an Arquillian Battle Cruiser, or a Corillian Death Ray, or an intergalactic plague that is about to wipe out all life on this miserable little planet, and the only way these people can get on with their happy lives is that they DO NOT KNOW ABOUT IT! -Men in Black |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 1013828 Canada 11/22/2010 08:59 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | They have no intentions of deploying dogs.. they altered the statement to include the dogs and other techniques just so Chertoff will be able to say the scanners aren't the only method being deployed. The dogs were just brought into the focus because of recent media attention.. by altering the statements they can say the alternative methods were there all along. Must admit though this sure does bring back a modern looking vision of Nazi Germany doesn't it.? |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 1078178 United States 11/22/2010 08:59 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | So should there be no screening whatsoever at an airport? Magnetometers good enough, or is there something wrong with those too? And yes, they should profile but all it takes is one blue-eyed, blond-haired fanatic to breeze through security with bad intentions. |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 1153070 United States 11/22/2010 09:00 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Would rather have a dog doing patrols vs "touching my junk", xrays showing my junk and getting on the web. Just sayin Quoting: UbetchaYou do know that dogs are used everyday to detain innocent people for hour and hours. If they dont like you the dog said you had a drugs. NOW you are a suspect and not only will be detained but your record pulled and interrogated. Pat down for sure. |

Just imagine how many of those "blue-eyed, blond-haired fanatics" will be prowling the shopping malls during the gala X-mas shopping season. Or consider the female suicide bombers, dressed up as nuns or pregnant mothers! Or that happy Santa, with a submachine gun and rocket launcher in his big red sack!

DON'T FLY. rediscover the great American Road Trip or ride a greyhound bus. the concern is how this is casually mentioned and included along with the bodyscanners, forceful/invasive patdowns, and the wide open term "among others" "Passengers should continue to expect an unpredictable mix of security layers that include explosives trace detection, advanced imaging technology, canine teams, among others." |
