to justify the TSA - we first have to believe that the entire array of chaotic events that took place on 9/11 were simply executed by a bunch of cavemen that got past gate security with boxcutters .. okay then.. really?

It is funny because if it were a black or a some kind of muslim woman there would not be such problems.
It is ok for a woman to go dressed like a black ninja or something, but would they let me on the plane if my religion required me to wear this too.
I remember when I was going for a visa to the UK long time ago before the EU, I was like the only white guy at the office. There were all kinds of colors there. I felt what it was to be a minority. But then, all got visas just from their applications and they announced that on the speakers.
I had to go through two interviews until they told me no visa for you because I had this masterplan to go study in germany for 4 years, pay large amounts of fees, then from germany to sneak out to the UK and work as a day labor.
I was sitting and asking myself wtf. The interview woman was black too.
This happened just after the terrorist bombings in London. I was like, ok you pass all the scum on the earth to enter and not me for a week to see this and that.

I think they have decreased the sensitivity of the metal detectors since installing the body scanners.
I've had a titanium rod from my knee to my ankle for over 15 years. Pre 9/11 it never alerted the metal detector. Post 9/11 it would go off every time. I really never had any problem with additional screening until a few moths ago when they made me turn down my button flys so they could "pat down" my underwear. I ride them pretty low so they definitely touched my happy trail and I exposed my pubes for all to see.
With this and all the hype I was pretty worried about going through all of this again and wondered how I would react if they tried to put their hands down my pants again or if I would have to go through additional screening if they saw all the metal in my leg during the body scan.
I didnt have to go through the body scans and all the metal detectors didn't go off for the first time in 10 years!

I don't think I would mind going through the screening process so much (whatever it ends up being), if the staff performing the screening were more worthy. The TSA employees I encounter 95% of the time are these apathetic, fat, unprofessional losers who look like they could give a shit about security. It makes it feel that much more pointless.

you guys are morons...
do you REALLY think they're doing this for their health?
theres a reason why they're doing this.... its called terrorists.
they have real valid reasons to do these searches.... they are to protect you, me and everyone else.

"This happened just after the terrorist bombings in London. I was like, ok you pass all the scum on the earth to enter and not me for a week to see this and that."
lol, you're serious man.
Your story reminds me of a belgian woman complaining that she had to fill up form to travel to my country and my dad calmly trying to explain to her that no matter where you're from, you need to fill the same forms.she was red and asking how dare he ask her for documents when all she wanted to do was travel.
as you said before you had a masterplan (to study then "sneak" into UK), they probably realized your were bullshitting them and they failed your application,
that is why all the scum of the world got a pass and you didn't.It took me 6 months just to get the travel visa + 4 years to get my working permit here, should I have complained that they let all the scum of the earth pass?
- pot call kettle black?honestIy
- today @ Know your Idioms:
We'll be discussing the need to fill up forms to travel. Are they necessary or a thing of the past?georgesIII
- hilchev0
it is not the same because the dox were filled and everything was the same. Where did I say that I didn't fill in the forms? And why was I the only one to go through an interview?
Everyone else got their visas without interviews. I saw that because I had to wait all day waiting for that.
And there was no masterplan. Since then, I've been atleast 6 times to the UK and back. And still when I graduated in germany, I got back to Bulgaria.
They think everyone is dying to go there and really can't think of no other reason why would I want to go there. It must be the day labor. There must be some explanation why he is bullshitting us to go and visit friends.
I wish I can get in touch with that clerk and ask her about my masterplan now ? These people make mistakes.
- My whole rant wasn't about the interview and forms, it was about you assuming that these people got theirs without interviewgeorgesIII

I'm sure things would be a lot different if there were real trained professionals conducting these scans at airports. You can't just give this much 'power' to random ignorant people. Addressing this could be a positive first step me thinks...

"So whats that say about europe? You still worship a queen and live in pure communism.
We are just now experience and its being rejected by AMERICANS! While you accept it.""It is funny because if it were a black or a some kind of muslim woman there would not be such problems."
"I was like, ok you pass all the scum on the earth to enter and not me for a week to see this and that."
Is there something about this thread that attracts a special kind of ignorant super-assholes?
- dconstrukt0
guys stop bitching.
if it saves 1 persons life (like yours, or someone you love) it's worth it.
They're doing this because they have reason to believe shit could go down this way.
They scan your luggage, do you bitch about that?
Who says this is permanent?
It is what it is, for now. Thanks to those crazy terrorists. Don't bitch at TSA, they're just trying to protect us.
Bitch at the lunatics that are causing this.
