D-Day Memorial Just Around the Corner

[jimbrown 0]

So we're coming up on D-Day and many retired US military who survived that engagement will be travelling by air to Europe.

These men, often referred to as "the Greatest Generation" , those who really were (at least in their own minds ) fighting for Liberty and to protect the weak against those who would deny them their Human Rights will be subjected to the TSA searches(possibly groping) at their airport of departure.
These guys are like what? 80 years old atleast?
They fought to protect the Constitution and The Bill of Rights.

They'll be subject to groping by government agents before they board the planes this time.

Were all their war efforts and all the deaths of all their buddies during that war in vain?

Peace,

Well, they will be once you discover a theory that makes WWII a selfish greedy power grab. Here, I'll get you started -

Did you know that Rear Admiral Robert A. Theobald had proof that the US knew of Pearl Harbor beforehand, but wanted to keep it secret so the US would have an excuse to enter WWII? And that FDR said "the blow was heavier than he had hoped it would necessarily be. ... But the risks paid off, even the loss was worth the price . . ." ? And that he asked the Secretary of War "'how we should maneuver them [the Japanese] into the position of firing the first shot without allowing too much danger to ourselves" ?

Go!

The 2 concepts have little to do with each other, to the point where your title is deceptive. Linking them in this way is so much of a stretch as to be ..... well, kinda nuts.

If you want to go on board the private airplane out of the private airport then you need to abide by the security provisions put in place. If not don't fly.

There was an interesting show in the UK about the liquid bomb plot that was foiled. The bombers were planning to take on board liquid explosive's in drinks bottles and blow them up, hence us now not being able to take liquids on board. They were also planning to take their kids and wives on board and possibly put the liquids in their bags. There are people out there that still wish to do us, the West, damage. Like it or not the TSA are doing what they are doing for the protection of the masses.

As far as I am concerned the minority can fuck their whining about privacy if it stops just one attack being foiled. The rest of us who wish to fly just deal with it and realise it is for the greater good.

That attitude is terrifying. Where does it stop?

I flew to San Francisco and back about a week ago. My tickets were bought be someone else, who spelled my last name wrong. Neither TSA agent screening me noticed, not even the one who asked me what my name was. The TSA isn't protecting us from anything.

I'm trying to be as good a cheerleader for the TSA as you, but I'm failing.

Internal tests done on the effectiveness on the TSA have shown in recent years anywhere from 50-90% of test weapons, bombs, etc. made it through undetected and onto the plane.

You stop breathing for a few minutes and everyone jumps to conclusions.

TSA looks for things. They should be looking for terrorists. That is, develop profiles like the Israelis do.

Look for the shiny things of God revealed by the Holy Spirit. They only last for an instant but it is a Holy Instant. Let your soul absorb them.

I can think of a couple thousand people who all died as a result of terrorists on the same day. I'd be willing to bet each and every one of them would have much prefered to have been searched before boarding if it would have prevented the events of that day from unfolding.

WWII was a hoax. I'm surprised you didn't already know that JB. And did you know that these pat downs are just a way for the government to find out who the small dick people are so they can kill them all and start breeding a big dick population of super-americans?

Make sure you narrow your band of history you learn from sufficiently to support your position.

My position is supported in a very broad spectrum, thank you.

Tin foil is so last century. Aluminum foil is what todays fashion conscious conspiracy theorist requires of their habberdashery!

Here is one fact,; They are making a record of every keystroke you type and a list of every website you visit.
Every cell phone call you make , every e-mail you type ,and every text message you send is on file .

So I don't care if you're wearing a nomex impregnated kevlar thong ,(who see's that besides the TSA agent stealing your laptop and what is left of your american pride and dignity? ) You are fucked! But if you are going to be fucked anyway why not be fashionable?

Aluminum hats are the way to go during this summer season.
PS.., don't forget it is considered a fashion faux pas to wear copper before labor day and never in the rain!

Well, they will be once you discover a theory that makes WWII a selfish greedy power grab. Here, I'll get you started -

Did you know that Rear Admiral Robert A. Theobald had proof that the US knew of Pearl Harbor beforehand, but wanted to keep it secret so the US would have an excuse to enter WWII? And that FDR said "the blow was heavier than he had hoped it would necessarily be. ... But the risks paid off, even the loss was worth the price . . ." ? And that he asked the Secretary of War "'how we should maneuver them [the Japanese] into the position of firing the first shot without allowing too much danger to ourselves" ?

Go!

Well, they did fight to protect the Constitution and the Bill of Rights(atleast in their own minds).

Now as old men travelling to the same sight where they risked their lives and fought to protect the ideals of Liberty, these 80 year old + men , will be subjected to groping of their privates in an affront to the 4th Ammendment.
Were all their efforts during WW2 in vain?

No shit Amazon!
I wade through the security lines at Hartsfield Jackson in Atlanta several times a day in hopes I'll be singled out for another groping!

Ya know.., generaly speaking government doesn't get much right but this pat down thing...!!!

I bet they would have preferred to have been stripped naked and forced to sit in cages rather than die, too. That's a poor argument for doing it - especially since current security procedures would not have found the box cutters anyway.

TSA hit by new scandal as passenger boards plane with THREE boxcutters - the weapon used by 9/11 hijackers

By Daily Mail Reporter

A passenger boarded an international flight from New York with three boxcutters in his hand luggage after TSA workers at JFK airport failed to spot the blades.

He walked straight through supposedly ramped-up security with the cutters, which were used as weapons by the 9/11 hijackers.

And that, sir, is a very poor excuse for not trying.

Chances are that most of them, if not all, will not be frisked.
