11/14/10. Refused security = $10,000 fine

WOW!

It is so gawd awful that pilots are suggesting passengers rent a car ...

Not good.

Why? Maybe pilots are hoping their managements will exert their considerable political influence to help ditch this useless, ineffective, overly intrusive ABORTION of a screening plan? The bottom line is the only thing management respects.

The TSA's ridiculous, intrusive screening policies that do absolutely nothing to increase airline safety are providing increasingly more job security to corporate, charter & fractional pilots with this nonsense.

They're also the absolute best sales tool for people interested in learning to fly or buying their own GA airplane...

that guy had the whole thing planned - pains me to say this but I have to side with the smurfs here.

On another note, WRT the hand patting in the "junk" area, just wait until smurf bends down to pat your leg in the rear and rip off a nice big fart right when their head level is at your waist height.

Who cares if he had it planned, in fact it is a good thing. The more this is in the news and the more the TSA is questioned about it the more they are likely to cave. Look at the guy that "intentionally" video'd the interview at ACORN. He did what no one had been able to do previously - shut them down. The more that the TSA is made to feel that they have stepped over a line the more likely they are to drop this goofiness.

Not a chance in hell will this go away. There is BIG money involved in this and the powers that be are determined to win out. Lots of cash has lined pockets on capital hill too. Isn't one on the board members of one of the scanning companies the former head of The Department of Fatherland Security?

They may cave in and let crews off the hook but Joe Six-pack and family better get used to being treated like criminals.

You don't get to throw an untruth out there and get away with it. You, along with the conservative media, need a history lesson. The ACORN video was edited where, at the end, the ACORN rep says "I'm just playing along with you guys; you're kidding, right"? Then, when the actors left, the ACORN rep called the police to tip them off about a possible illegal operation and an illegal immigration.

So a community group, established to help less privileged folks, was ******************** down and smeared by a lie, and by people like you who get their "news" from FOX, and don't bother to follow up with the real story.

Don't compare ACORN to TSA. TSA isn't helping any of us.

Yep. It sucks because I have to go through it going to work but it is job security...

But I'll be the first to applaud when they pull the plug on this stupidity.
