Have you heard that old saying, “they don’t make them like they used to”? This days it seems to apply to many things but especially to airlines. What’s the deal with airlines this days? You are actually paying for cancer-worthy amounts of radiation to expose your naked body, molestation, being accused of terrorism and in the end you end up flying on a crummy, uncomfortable POS that may malfunction in mid-air at any moment. Does that sound like good deal to you? If you ask me, I think they should pay me to go through all that crap!
And let me tell you, it wasn’t like that back in my day. I once flew from New York to Chicago with 2 thermos full of coffee, a souvenir of the Statue of Liberty and a blow up doll inflatable balloon in my backpack. The only bad part was the food but airline meals always sucked anyways. Now if you had to do the same trip it would be a hell of a lot more different. With a lot more violence, radiation and humiliation. Especially humiliation.

(ChattahBox U.S. News)—When the Department of Homeland Security rolled out full-body scanners in 68 airports across the country, many travelers faced a choice: either submit to the body scan or receive an “enhanced pat-down”—and some passengers can’t decide which option is the lesser of two evils. To support air travelers’ complaints, one group has filed a lawsuit against the Transportation Security Administration (TSA), and other groups are considering doing the same, CNET.com reports.
The Electronic Privacy Information Center (EPIC) submitted a lawsuit last week, noting that when the invasive screening techniques are the primary screening method in an airport, travelers’ Fourth Amendment rights are violated, “because the scans are far more invasive than necessary,” CNET reports.
Man, thanks God I don’t fly anymore. After the 9/11 attacks I’d rather take a bus, at least my corpse will be recognizable if terrorists hijack the bus. But if all of the above was not enough to push you to never use airlines again, here’s a video where you can actually hear the complaints of a bunch of people like you and I who went through the unnecessarily invasive procedure, courtesy of YouTube user TheIntelligencer.
Yep, that did it for me. I’m never flying again. Except for when I smoke weed go parasailing. Seriously, I’d rather get abducted by aliens and subsequently probed inside the UFO. At least aliens are honest about what they do. These bastards lie to you telling you it’s for your own good and safety, when in reality they just want to fondle you.

TSA or Tyrants Squeezing Ass?
Imagine the fallout if a famous movie star’s naked airport scan was circulated or sold on the black market by a TSA employee. That might happen when you consider that TSA has been documented keeping thousands of naked scan photos of U.S. Citizens.
If not stopped, Airports are just the beginning of Citizens being X-rayed / Stripped Naked by Government, having their Private Body Parts Touched, Squeezed and Patted-Down by Government Employees. It is problematic Americans (next) will be X-Ray Scanned and Physically Molested boarding trains, cruse ships, buses; when entering sports events and office buildings. Continued Low Radiation Exposure is Accumulative and believed to cause Cancer.
Americans should boycott airlines; that would get TSA’s attention and stockholders of airlines. Meanwhile Not just pilots and flight attendants, “ordinary air passengers” should also be afforded privacy, when felt up, searched at public airports.
Talk about government in your face. Recently the Obama government purchased hundreds’ of X-Ray Vans that will travel our streets without warrants, x-raying Americans, seeing Citizens naked when walking, standing, riding their bike. Government/police will use the x-ray vans to peer though Citizens’ homes and vehicles, exposing Americans and their families to radiation. X-ray vans are an affront to privacy, allowing government to view Citizens in their bedrooms. Americans need to ask Obama if independent studies were conducted to determine if Citizens could develop Cancer, if (repeatedly exposed) to police X-rays. It is easy to imagine government/police with or without a warrant every night X-raying a person of interest in his or her home. It is foreseeable some Citizens might install similar to smoke detectors, sensors that will set off an alarm, if their home or vehicle is being bombarded with X-rays.
Obama’s X-Ray Vans can ALSO be used by the military or police to secure perimeters to control civil unrest and instances of revolt, to screen and stop Citizens carrying guns, cameras; any item. Does Obama expect Americans to revolt?
The Nazis used national emergency as a premise to repeatedly target and detain, search and question Germans boarding or taking trains considered political dissidents or morally unworthy; targeted Citizens were intentionally delayed by police/military so they would be late or miss work. Of course many lost there jobs and could not survive.
@Rwolf Hell yeah, he [Obama] expects citizens to revolt! just look at all the bullshit they’ve been doing lately. And Obama acts like nothing is going on – a clear sign that he knows what is going on but is turning the blind eye to the problem. So yeah, most people are getting pissed about the privacy invasion, the bailouts and all the other crap, so the more the people get pissed about it the more the government spies on those people, so they get even more pissed about it, and it’s a vicious circle.
I don’t know where this is going to end, but let me assure you, it ain’t going to end well.
