tiger1 User ID: 36977847 United States 09/19/2013 11:18 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | My youngest went to visit her cousin in Oklahoma during the summer. The flight from Midway was no problem. The flight from Oklahoma to Midway WAS a problem. They actually swabbed her hands for explosives at the Oklahoma airport !!! I was extremely upset, to say the least. My oldest brother flies pretty frequently. Almost every time he flies, he gets singled out for extra security. Praise God from Whom all Blessings flow !!! |

Resister User ID: 1461638 United States 09/20/2013 12:06 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I refuse to fly because of the TSA Gestapo. That's easy for me to say because I don't need to fly for a job or anything, but I will not be flying again on vacation or anything until they stop requiring people to abdicate their 4th amendment right not to be searched without reasonable suspicion and treating people like owned cattle. "God forbid we should ever be 20 years without such a rebellion. The people cannot be all, & always, well informed... If they remain quiet under such misconceptions it is a lethargy, the forerunner of death to the public liberty... Let them take arms... What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots & tyrants. " - Thomas Jefferson in 1787 |

I told my boss today that I want to drive to the next out of state business trip. after I said it would take 3 days, one way, she just shook her head and walked away. Chugiakian |

What they have to say will make you want run from these machines. Sure it's just a little radiation they say, you'll get way more on the plane, but they fail to mention radiation accumulates within your body. That's why I always opt out & go for the pat down. Different places, different people, TSA can be warm & friendly, total assholes & thieves. When you go thru and have been in line for ever and you hit the magic number for a full body pat down & explosives test (where there are no body scanners) it can really test your patience. The look I've seen on TSA faces when this has happen to me has been the complete look of dread, oh shit, this is so stupid and they seem more irritated that myself having to play by the "rules". A little more common sense factor could play into the TSA and make travels happier for everyone. Also at LIH (Lihue, HI) security, they want you to remove EVERYTHING from your person but your clothing jewelry. That includes your cash & ID. This infuriates me to no end. This situation goes from very confrontational or they completely ignore the fact you kept it on your person. After the incident in 2011, I always opt out & they don't seem to care much that you keep it on you. You just pull out your cash and after they give it a quick glance put it back in your pocket. At RNO (Reno, NV) TSA tells you to keep you cash on you. Which TSA is correct on the matter of cash & your ID? I thought they were "removing" or "phasing out" all the full body scanners, I know they removed them in Europe because of radiation concerns. "When" or "is" this suppose to happen? |
