I wonder what would happen if one were to pop some Viagra, and audibly and visibly be aroused by a pat-down?

Either the passenger is gay and doesn't like being touched by a straight, or the TSA agent is gay and perceived as being unprofessional with the pat-downs.

Freedom is a heavy load, a great and strange burden for the spirit to undertake. It is not easy. It is not a gift given, but a choice made, and the choice may be a hard one. The road goes upward toward the light; but the laden traveller may never reach the end of it.  - Ursula Le Guin

Another TSA thread.

I couldn't decide which of the forty-seven TSA threads to post this in, so why not add another?

I can't believe that airline customers aren't already organizing a boycott. Or at least not that I've heard. Isn't it time that frequent flyers simply went by some other form of transportation, and said so? Loudly?

Cars, trains, boats, those still work, right?

Bid specifications issued by TSA for the purchase of whole body scanners specified the ability to store and transmit images in spite of its protestations to the contrary.

jamis posted a link to the pdf of the actual gov paperwork.  what do you think it says?
It is much more powerful to seek Truth for one's self.  Seeing and hearing that others seem to have found it can be a motivation.  With me, I was drawn because of much error and bad judgment on my part. Confronting one's own errors and bad judgment is a very life altering situation.  Confronting the errors and bad judgment of others is usually hypocrisy.

Yes, they do. However, they often aren't practical.

And even so, so what? The protections in the constitution are not there as the .gov deems them, nor are they conditional on us choosing to give them up in exchange to do something.
That is all. *expletive deleted*ck you all, eat *expletive deleted*it, and die in a fire. I have considered writing here a long parting section dedicated to each poster, but I have decided, at length, against it. *expletive deleted*ck you all and Hail Satan.

Perhaps the grand plan is to end up, after the private carriers are insolvent, with one national state airline.  Then we could be like most of the rest of the world.  Obama would be happy.

Yes, but doing inconvenient things to make a point is the nature of a boycott.

The idea is to hurt the airlines to the point that they put pressure on the TSA. It's not about lying down and taking it. Quite the reverse.

One made the right choice.  Time to start pressuring the rest to do the same.

Wow, 12 pages.  I got behind. Caught up now.

I've said it before, as an airline employee, I can't stand the TSA. When I become Emporer of the US, I will disban the TSA.  In the mean time, I encourage you all to boycott airlines until the TSA is gone.

As to the ammo questions:

FAMs: .357 Sig JHPs, last I heard. I haven't seen or talked with a FAM in months.

FFDOs: .40SW Federal 180g HST JHPs.

do you have a case where tsa saved images outside their training mode as outlined in the specs you so kindly provided?

If it can be saved in training mode, it can be saved when not in training mode.  TSA has to go.
