I wonder why this is? Oh yeah, how could I forget? There is a black man in the WH whose name sounds nothing like James Johnson.edit on 26-5-2011 by TheImmaculateD1 because: (no reason given)

So if they can't search then how do you expect them to find the bombs? How are they supposed to insure our safety?
If they didn't search there would be people demanding these searches especially after a a few more 9/11's.
If anyone has any other alternative idea to these searches that would be just as effective, then please be my guest and post your idea here in this thread. If not then your whining about it is pointless.

Those actions follow along the lines of that police brutality thread here on ATS where the crowd served up justice.edit on 26-5-2011 by superluminal11 because: (no reason given)

Not only are you ignorant but you totally lack imagination as well. If I want to bring down a plane I would covertly pay the flight mechanics, baggage handlers, cleaning crews, pilots someone WITH ACCESS to the plane. This has happened in the past and is much more likely than some retarded shoe bomber.
Not to mention there are explosive material detectors and/or you can use dogs. Scanning the baggage ONLY will give you 99.9999% success rate in foilling some terrorist plot. Allowing perverts to pat you down or forcing people through x-ray scanners is totally uncalled for and unhealthy. Would you like going through that BS EVERYTIME you go flying??? I don't think so!

Abolish the perverts at TSA.
Oddly, before the TSA, security procedures from airport to airport were not standard. That's one of the issues the TSA was supposed to fix. However, I'm not sure it did, as I still noticed some discrepancies in procedures from airport to airport even after the TSA took over security. So I'm not really convinced they fixed anything.

Who can prove that even having a TSA makes us any "safer"?

REMEMBER THE ALAMO!!!
Is this a threat?
I got 4 words for you?
DO YOU REMEMBER WACO?
All the Federal Government has to do is the following and Texas will be crushed in a month tops :
1. Cut off and seal off any shipping, interstate US Routes.
2. Put a pair of Navy detroyers and a pair of aircraft carriers in the Gulf and sink any ships coming in or out from the ports there.
3. Sequence with Mexico so that they give the Federal the ok to place boots and munitions on the Mexican side of the border.
4. Cutt of all Federal money!
5. Get up and sequence with New Mexico, Oklahoma, Colorado, Louisiana, Arkansas to seal off thier borders.
6. Locate and sieze any oil wells in the Gulf that have their pipes that run to the State!
7. Activate the Stuxnet virus to disable all state comminications and the state power grid.
8. Sequence with Google and any other internet provider to cut off all fibreoptic communication points and grids.
9. Disable any and all US Military installations located in Texas and suffocate them.
The question Austin seriously needs to ask themselves is "Do you really want to dance with The US Federal Government?".edit on 26-5-2011 by TheImmaculateD1 because: (no reason given)

You should know your history first, then you can twist them to suit your needs.
Tha Alamo was a battle in the TEXAS War for Independance. It wasn't even the last battle.. that was a bit later at San Jacinto.

Don't come on a thread filled with Texans and try to tell US what our history is.
