Why exactly is this posted?  Just trying to stir up more arguments?

[keyboardlover]

RiGS is officially the new Welly (political troll). Except he supports Alex Jones, which makes him likely to be EVEN MORE insane than Welly.

[RiGS]

It is always refreshing to point out that the US is a free country.
This kinda reminds me of the novel of 1984 written by George Orwell.

[Lpb45]

boring

[RiGS]

Indeed reading can be boring.

[keyboardlover]

I think he was referring to your nonsensical opinions.

[Lanx]

This is the price we pay for freedom and the inability to profile. Now I don't mean racially profile, but some amount of common sense instead of zero tolerance would be cool, like giving a kid a quick glance over would be enough, instead of a pat down.

[REVENGE]

This is the price you pay for having an off topic subforum.

[RiGS]

I'd rather face the danger.

Btw, I like this quote by Benjamin Franklin.

The man who trades freedom for security does not deserve nor will he ever receive either.

[seung]

I don't see a problem here. Just a simple pat down. Sure, the kid may be innocent, but the mother is obviously a wack job.

[RiGS]

I don't see a problem here.

This is the problem.

[keyboardlover]

Correct, your posts are the problem.

[RiGS]

Your ignorance, and the fact that you can't brake the conditioning are the problem.
You will believe whatever they tell you in the media.

[keyboardlover]

You will believe whatever they tell you in the media.

Actually, that's YOU. Because you for whatever reason believe Alex Jones' insane propaganda.

Also, I'm really curious as to what kind of job you have since you seem to stay up until 5:30 AM quite a lot on weeknights.

[RiGS]

It's 4:30 AM. I work from home.

[Fwiffo]

Your warnings against creeping authoritarianism would be taken more seriously if you hadn't already established yourself as a crank.

Ironically this is also bad for security as inherently limited resources are tied up pointlessly frisking little American girls so the big Saudi Arabian men don't receive the attention they deserve.

Are you a complete moron? Do you realize Benjamin Franklin lived in the 1700s? Times change.

In this day and age, it is sad, but we need to be aware and protect our nation against terrorism. You're just someone that needs to whine about everything including undergoing a patdown.

Don't flatter yourself, you're not being picked out from the crowd because you're so good looking someone wants to feel you up.

[BucklingSpring]

This is the problem.

Kids are not the problem. Adults using kids as mule ARE the problem.
There is nothing wrong with this video. It was done respectfully.

lol reminds me of that scene in Airplane where this old lady sets off the metal detector so they start hassling her. Meanwhile, guys with bandoliers of ammunition and RPGs are passing through unchecked cause they're too busy with her.

That opinion is what is wrong with this country. How close minded are you? Do you not realize this whole 'terrorism' thing is a big fairy tale? Do you not realize that the most recent terrorism 'scares' were by men RECRUITED and TRAINED at FBI camps in Afghanistan?

This stuff is NOT protecting us against terrorism. It is NOT helping us in any way. Essentially, this makes the America haters WIN. They are turning the people against the government, and those who do not turn against the government are willing to give up their freedoms for security.

That quote RiGS posted from Ben Franklin still rings just as true today. If you do not believe that, you're welcome to leave the US and go somewhere like Israel where people are more than willing to give up their freedoms for security. Not here.

And while I'm mentioning Israel, did you know they have the safest airports in the world, even though they're the most at risk for terrorist attacks? Did you know they don't use the same procedures we do, and they think of them as stupid and unnecessary? They just observe, scan baggage, and use metal detectors. No xray scanners or patdowns.

These measures are not necessary, and have only been adopted with the purpose of making a few people rich. The same people that chose these scanners to be put in in the first place are the ones that own the companies that make them. That is THE definition of conflict of interest...

How about everyone get of RiGS **** and start commenting on what he's actually saying, not attack him for his previous posts. It's getting really tiresome. I don't see many blatant troll posts from him, you guys are the ones that do most of the trolling.

Doesn't Israel employee military trained ppl that are trained in professional profiling? to that end Israel is a little bit bigger than New Jersey, so it's not like it wouldn't be difficult to be safe that

You cannot be too careful when it comes to security, there are threats everywhere.

We didn't need nor accept pat downs at airports 30 years ago.

And since you brought it up, "common sense" would predicate that if we rationalize pat downs as OK now, when we didn't 30 years ago, then we'll have no problem rationalizing further intrusions in the future.

[quadibloc]

It certainly is true that terrorists have used kids as mules. And, given that airplanes give terrorists the ability to kill thousands of people at a single blow, we do have to be very careful.

That does not say that I find the operations of the TSA to be in all cases acceptable. But, at the moment, we still have not eliminated the terrorist threat at its source, so, temporarily, we have limited options.

[speakeasy]

You're 8x more likely to be killed by a police officer than a terrorist.

I am honestly more concerned about radiation from their scanners than I am of the chance that there's a terrorist on my plane. I am more concerned with government employees than I am about the terrorist bogeyman, because I'm SUPPOSED to support the government without question.

You saw the "Four Lions" movie yet?

[keyboardlover]

It is in the TSA's best interest to protect the greater good of every person on every airplane by making sure bombs and other weapons don't get in. Anything could happen; terrorists could put bombs or other weapons on kids even without them knowing it. When I was 12 they wouldn't even let me bring my keychain on an airplane because it was shaped like a bullet.

[RiGS]

That's why DHS launches takeover of hotels, malls and sports stadiums.

Did you know that more people die from bathroom accidents than in terrorist attacks?

At what point are you willing to say enough is enough.
