1. In all fairness, if you screen one, you've got to screen them all.
Otherwise it's profiling and/or discrimination.

We don't have the dollars to secure the safety of mass transit on the ground. I'm very concerned that's where the next nightmare is lurking.

3. The security people got a huge boost from Bush since 9/11...
hundreds of thousands of the unemployed suddenly got jobs....

nice way of bringing the UE number down and at the same time ...make our airports SAFER? after all, in 4 years, they got not one terrorist.

And, every now and then....we got them screeners who abuse their power, almost arrogant about it. They make you squirm, etc then when the coast is clear, tell the rest of them screeners on a break of how he/she made the guy squirm, body search, etc.

THEY ARE LAUGHING AT US>

Some are joking and Laughing even at their jobs sites...forget waiting.
