Subject: BS: TSA groping your junk
From: Donuel
Date: 16 Nov 10 - 02:21 AM

All the folks who loved the patriot act are now really upset by their 4th ammendment rights being abused by TSA airport guards who are groping everyone's genitals unless people opt for ionizing Xrays that show full body nakedness for all at TSA to see. Be you left leaning, right leaning or forward leaning this new policy of groping kids and granmothers alike is going way too far to supposedly catch an other undewear bomber.


This policy is not well thought through from the basic health adversities to deep seated psychological issues that will upset most people.

TSA has historicly stopped or caught exactly 0 terrorists.

Suppose a person has ruptured sperm ducts and the 8 dollar an hour TSA gurad squeezes tesitcles? An infection? A cyst? A Boil? What if a gay person insists upon a female to grope his genitals, but he is not gay but just wants Sally too touch his junk. Suppose your 12 year old daughter slaps the guard who is rubbing her vagina region? Will she be detained or arrested?

What kind of new employees is TSA going to attract? Pedophiles, pedergasts, junk groping crotch sniffing perverts?

The young man who said "touch my junk and I'll have you arrested" is being charged with obstructing a police procedure and faces a $10,000 fine for walking away.

A pilot was suspended for refuseing the X ray. Every knows that flying at altitude already exposes people more radiation and that female flight crew have a 1,200 percent increase of miscarriages compared to people who never fly.


Shoe bombs, donkey bombs, underwear bombs, teeth bombs, rectal bombs, shampoo bombs, toothpaste bombs, balm bombs...

Its all a Bullshit response that by the time you are about to board a plane - is already too late.

400 peple will be killed by lighting for every one airplane terrorists.



Did you know that all the first class mail under 1 lob each in the belly of a passenger plane ALWAYS goes unscanned?

ALl the checked luggaage in the belly of the plane has all the banned shampoos or baby formulas that could just as easily be an explosive set to go off by cell phone.

Hey I'm not a prude but most of the time a TSA ass hole will target the person arbitarily based on somthing about the person that pisses him off. In his hands the X ray is a tool of humilliation to him in every sense of the word.

WHen you are simply asked HOW ARE YOU and you say anything except fine, you are profiled for more scanning. IF you say you have a headache,,, you are getting W rayed - no question about it.



This holiday there will be protestors and people who will hold up the line as long as possible in protest.

There may even be people who wear a full Depends intentionally.

Until America grows up and stops being terrorized by every new armpit bomb or tooth pick bomb scare, I'm looking to avoid airlines and the new crotch groping line.

OK some of you will enjoy it, maybe most of you after a few drinks but I see more anxiety and spontaneous "incidents" of non compliance that may become more explosive than a band aid bomb.

All the TSA needs to do to calm public ire over this issue is hire really good looking employees and give passengers a choice as to which one they want to be felt up by. I don't particularly wanna have my package groped by an ugly middle-aged man, but if they had a clerk who looked like Sandra Bullock I'd gladly endure it.

As I watch the darkness that seems to be sweeping the land of my birth, I despair more each day.

Folks, until I retired a few years ago, I was flying six legs a week. I often scanned the faces of those around me. There are families on these flights. Dads and Moms trying to get home. Folks conducting business. What is being done, is being done to keep folks safe. It isn't about your sexually repressed fear that someone is looking at your nakedness. These body scans are NOT the result of some imagined threat. Have you not been paying attention to what has been taking place around the world? The terrorist factions have been sending any number of test cases out to probe for weaknesses in the security. Do you want us to first lose several hundred men, women and children before we react? Then you would blame the government for not anticipating. Were you not paying attention to the shoe and underwear bombers? They made for funny comedy bits on late night telly, but the fact is that they were real attempts to see if that would work. Now the latest, with the bombs discovered in the air cargo jet, is that these same organizations are probing to see if cargo is the way to go. Do you not get that these jets are high value targets? The TSA is a convenient target. It's a government agency, so that means you can hurl gratuitous attacks at them, and everyone, on cue, goes "yeah, they can't do anything right".

The day after we lose a couple hundred folks in a bombing, I can't wait to hear you all chime in about how we should do more to protect our jets from terrorist attacks. The rules the TSA instituted are fair, and have been vetted. Napolitano says they are subject to reasonable changes, but the first priority is safe flight. Those of you that are so worked up that someone is a room is looking at you need to get over yourselves. Do you not understand that this isn't a bunch of beer drinking goons having a party looking at your genitals. Doing this stuff hours at a time for hundreds of folks will pretty much take any titillation out of it. They can't see your face, they aren't taping you for sex videos.

Get over yourselves.

Being FREE from Unreasonable search and seizure is in the US Constitution and it means somthing very important except to the top dollar security industries and a few wusses.


If you guys are so effin scared shitless about an event that is a thousand times more unlikely than getting fatally hit by a bolt of lightning....

I heareby say to you that you are the one psychologiclly repressed
and you don't even know it.'

Forgive me but that is precisely delusional thinking.




Of course if we abandon all hope of freedom, an open society and the basic social contract of citizens who observe and defend the US Constitution,
then there is no reason to even discuss anything authorities want to do to you.



Abandon the Constitution
and everything goes.
Just keep your head down
and follow your nose,
March to the shower
though your fate may be dower
there is more on the hook

Scans are being copied and pirated to some sick webbastards? Unreal.

Must be videos taken by the staff, maybe?

In any case, just ask for a pat down. As far as being sexually abused as a child VT... come on... this is not sexual abuse and equating it to that in anyone's mind is a bit of a stretch. If anyone is that retentive they need a full brain scan.

The thing that evades me about the guy with the little dick is this... did he have a hardon when he went through the scanner? Otherwise, how could anyone judge the size of his dick? My dick is a wee tiny thing when I am being scanned but if Sandy was patting me down it would be a far different story. There's a big difference between a pocket novel and hardcover.

There is no way to make life totally safe against Muslim terrorism except THIS: Get the hell out of the Muslim countries, stop dominating and terrorizing them with our armies, navies, and air power, stop supporting Israel unilaterally on its every action, stop propping up hated Muslim governments in countries like Egypt, let the Muslim nations market their own oil exactly as they wish to, for whatever currency they wish to (Euro? Yuan?), and leave them the hell alone from now on.

Do those things, and you will see an end to Muslim terrorism attacks against the USA, Canada, and Western Europe, because those attacks have arisen out of anger over OUR terrorism and interference in the lives of Muslim populations ever since the end of WWII.

?? I looked at a couple of the examples of scans done on those machines, and I must say I don't 'see' much...certainly nothing that would identify an individual. It is blurry, vague and only barely indicates general body parts/shapes. I cannot comprehend how anyone could work up a 'prurient interest' in blurry gray blobs. I suppose someone wearing 'falsies' might be reluctant to be detected as less well-endowed than they pretend....but sheesh, unless you are famous, who cares?

Now, that opinion has little to do with my take on whether the scans are necessary.

I take at least four flights a year - twice a year I fly to the UK to visit family and friends. Whilst I am aware that the likelihood of being on a plane targeted by terrorists, that possibility does exist.

I would choose the scan to the body search - I had that once when the metal detector went off - and I'll take my chances with the radiation risk. If that is what I have to go through to make my visits to and from the UK so be it.

I must admit that some TSA staff tend to be very dictatorial and could maybe do with learning some people skills. However, there is little option, if one wishes to travel, than to deal with it all with as good grace as possible, particularly, for me, when the alternative is not to visit with my family on a regular basis.

If TSA staff are proved to be abusing their positions then action needs to be taken. Otherwise, find another means of transport because the likelihood of making changes by protesting is less than a snowball's chance in hell and you'll probably invite the ire of fellow passengers who get held up while you are making a fuss.

Subject: Frequent radiation from TSA scanners

Date: 16 Nov 10 - 07:29 PM

I'm not concerned about my bulbous naughty parts being seen by some TSA agent, but I am concerned about the possible ill effects of being scanned by those machines 10 times a year or more.   The input I've heard and read from experts tells me that the safety of such frequent exposure has not been demonstrated.

I also don't believe the scanners will prevent a terrorist blowing up a plane, so I think it's a great inconvenience, invasion of privacy -- we're going to have teenagers undergo virtual strip searches too? --, and potential serious health risk, without really making us safe anyway.

After looking at the video Bill, I now have to agree with you .. pretty much nothing offensive that I can see.   I will still question their effectiveness as the only real security can be made when one enters the tunnel to get on the plane. If we still let the bad guys steal or buy anything they need inside the gate the security is useless.

At the very least instead of the scanner that costs so much money, a sniffer inside the tunnel would be far more effective. They are quite inexpensive and extremely accurate for detecting explosives. Likewise assuming anyone at anytime can bring a sharp edged weapon on board regardless of entrance security, have people on board trained to handle it .. far more effective

TSA agents monitoring the scanners should be able to see the scanned images, and only the scanned images. They should work in some sort of enclosure that prevents them from knowing anything about a passenger other than what the scanner reveals. The offensive behavior Dan describes would be eliminated if the agents hadn't seen the young lady before she entered the scanner. The scanner may show an image that's recognizable as a 5'6" female, but it doesn't show whether or not she's attractive. She could be a movie star or your Aunt Bertha. If an agent is going to drool over one woman's scanned image, it's going to be because he decided she was a hottie before she walked into the machine.

I wonder how much money some folks are making on this. As I pointed out it does nothing to stop anything as the bad guys can steal or buy what they need afterwords. The reasoning I heard was the underwear bomber. A hand held or rack mounted explosive sniffer (military grade) is 35,000 dollars as opposed to a multi million dollar full body scanner. So where is the tax dollar going under the illusion we are safer?

hmmm... those ARE more graphic... I had no idea they could do that. I also have no idea how they can guarantee 'no copies' get saved and distributed...

If that's the usual quality, I foresee big problems.

From what I just been reading all over the place Bill the images I showed are correct. Now they are not suppose to do invert but you know someone is doing it
