The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized I need to get one of those T-shirts before my next flight... | ||
| Mr_grumpy |
What a great idea! I need to get one printed that shows an engine where my heart should be, black on black. Oh the fun one could have, the possibilities are endless. | ||
| Pwnzor |
I'd love to have one with images of knives and guns in the usual concealment areas. That would be a hoot! | ||

i just want to get on a plane and not have to worry some misguided ••••••• isnt trying to blow it up!  | ||

Unfortunately, that is a GOOD way to find yourself not only missing your flight, but perhaps missing quite a HUGE chunk of your life trying to get the PANIC you've caused straightened out in court. TSA does NOT hire people based on their sense of humor. | ||

 Oh yeah, that's cracking, cheers. | ||

How about a "modesty" line of shorts colored with the metalic ink for privacy and a phrase "Keep your eyes off my junk". (It's probably a good thing that my phone doesn't display embedded links. ) (Message edited by mikej on December 06, 2010) | ||

gawd, i dont envy commercial travellers I do love having MAC access, 141 or 130 access pretty much at the beck and call. theres always a bird running. If you dont mind the accomodations  jump seats and cargo netting for the win | ||
| Mr_grumpy |
Brian, for the uninitiated among us, please elucidate. WTF is MAC access? | ||

Military Airlift Command They have at least since the 80's run a fleet of transports for the purpose of carrying service members, dependants, and retirees all over the globe. It is spartan, and you fly their schedule, never yours. They only service military bases. If you arenty a military service member, you are not getting on the plane (unless your are a dependant, joining the service member in a forward deployed base) Hawaii is the exception as everyone lands at Hickam. I wouldnt mind an x ray shirt with the second amendment on it too | ||

TSA does NOT hire people based on their sense of humor. Precisely why, as a convicted felon found guilty of firearms and drug crimes, I always arrive for every flight at least four hours ahead of time. I have a huge sense of humor, and an angry Romanian trial lawyer on speed dial. If only I'd had more time to prepare, or at least order a custom t-shirt! LOL | ||

TSA does NOT hire people based on their sense of humor. Nor for their training or education, not to mention you can be a sex offender as well. TSA ain't elite | ||
| Ft_bstrd |
TSA is where people who can't get on with the DMV or as a rent a cop at the mall go for work. | ||
| Mr_grumpy |
Ah, so TSA isn't really a security thing it's a make-work program then. | ||
| Ft_bstrd |
Yep. If you look like security, then people will think it's security. | ||
| Mr_grumpy |
Yeah, right.  | ||
| Ft_bstrd |
It's low quality, low tech, highly visible security. None of these folks have ANY special training. These are rent-a-cops.  | ||

| Jaimec |
Lot of retired cops I know went into TSA as well. | ||
| Sayitaintso |
I know quite a few cops I wouldn't trust to watch my lunch for me, and I know a bunch I'd trust my life with. They come in all shapes, sizes, and flavors. Same goes for vets. | ||

The terrorists have already won. <sigh> | ||
| Ft_bstrd |
As has been said, not all vets or policemen are the same. I have yet to see a single TSA person working the line that appears to be a retired vet or policeman. I've seen plenty that look like retired librarians, lunch room ladies, cab drivers, fast food workers, and bus drivers. Now if you are talking Air Marshals as part of the TSA, I might buy that. You don't see any Air Marshals working the line. | ||
| Wolfridgerider |
Air Marshal... thought about that. That could be fun... but for the most part, I think it would be a lot like my old job.... Hurry up and wait.... and wait.... and wait... | ||

Pwnzer- A guy I work with was telling me that several years ago he was out East for a couple of weeks and when picking up presents for his kids bought one of those toy hand grenades for his son. He had it in his carry-on bag (without thinking obviously) when he tried to go through security. Needless to say he spent a lot of time in the back room explaining himself. He said the ironic thing was he bought it at one of the government museums (Smithsonian?). Luckily it was still in the bag with the receipt. | ||

there was a pineapple wireless router/modem that was causing quite the stir a couple of years ago. |
