No more cigarette lighters!!!!!

[CRJDog]

"Ill remember your comments when someone takes down your flight with a butane lighter or any of the other "300 different household items that can be used as a bomb." Be glad someone is there looking out for you and your flights."

This idiot has his nose so far up the TSA's butt all anyone can see is his heels. I nominate this idiot for the TSAAKA- Thousands Standing Around A** Kisser Award-. I'm glad your wife has a 4 year degree, I hope she continues her education. Maybe she could advance her worthless career with a advanced degree such as a Masters in Mag. Wanding French Poodles. Please go back to your wife and have her lube up the old wand for your next treatment, you sure need to keep those lip smackers in proper shape or if things get boring, have her dress up in her Gestapo uniform and ask her for a cavity search. She might recommend for one of the top jobs.

Amen !!

Vicks, ask your dumb@ss wife on why did the idiots at TSA are thinking on making this rule over 3 years after 9/11. She has a 4 year degree and the only job she could get is a TSA bag checker? Pretty sad.

SOON TO COME!

TSA MANDATES ALL AIRCRAFT DOORS TO BE LOCKED AND ALL TRAVELERS MUST FLY NAKED AND CARRY NOTHING.

I'm wondering when the new TSA memo will come out stating that EVERYONE, ESPECIALLY those darn flight crews, have to fly NEKKED.

They haven't figured out yet that the crew could fly nekked and still mess up every one's day if they wanted to anyway. Why would they want to use their toe nail clippers for that?

TSA...(T)obacco...(S)mokers....(A)ssociation.

Thats it!...they want the lighters!!

TSA makes us "safer?" [sarcastic laughter]

Every time I hear someone spout the line that the TSA makes us "safer" I'm not sure whether to laugh, cry, throw up, or just shake my head in despair that someone could be brainwashed like that. The TSA are merely busily engaged in creating a pressing need for themselves to keep the sheep-like travelling public from ever waking up from their dream.

I, for one, resent being forced to participate in the charade. (Please don't anyone say "If you don't like it then quit.") No change for the better ever came from people simply rolling over and accepting whatever @#$% washes over them. I'm only one person, but for all the good it will do I have voiced my opinions to my congressmen. Maybe if everyone does the same, some good will come of it.

I just finished reading George Orwell's 1984 for the first time last year. (We didn't read it in any of my English classes, but I had always wanted to). Those of you still capable of independent thought (which seems to be the majority of the people on this board) ought to read it, or read it again.

WAR IS PEACE
FREEDOM IS SLAVERY
IGNORANCE IS STRENGTH

Kodiak, Copenhagen, even Apple Skoal!

And I notice that the person who married the TSA "person" is a crew scheduler, and about the only time he approaches a large-type aircraft is in the back only, or on MSFS.

Deal with those idiots daily, like a crewmember does, and the different levels of enforcement that you see flying around the NAS on a daily basis; and every time you see more than 2 TSA agents huddled on break; your blood just boils.....

TSA = Thousands Standing Around
TSA = They Smell Alcohol
TSA = They Suck A$$

Ever since the TSA agency was announced shortly after 9/11, the ONLY improvement in aviation security has been that you no longer have Vladimir, Kama Sutra, or any other green card holder type manning the checkpoints; like you did at ORD - the Argenbright jerk-offs at ORD just walked off the flight from Warsaw Poland the day before...

Quick Fix for Mr Dumb**CENSORED****CENSORED****CENSORED****CENSORED**- Require "all" TSA idiots to pass a 3rd grade comprehensive test. After this monumental task there will be approximatly 25% left. Unfortunatly your weak ass old lady will be looking for a job. Look at the bright side, your daily ass wiping with the Mag. wand will cease unless she buys her own for your special treatments.

You can stop at any news stand or gift shop on the secure side of an airport and purchase a replacement lighter.....

TSA= Trillions Spent Annually

 

[bobbyice]

Better late than never. The real problem is the Federal government being in charge of security. Why the change? Please tell me one banned item that the hijackers took aboard those airplanes on 9-11...

I think SWA is up to speed on this one. They might might even have an update to the FOM.

GOD, I crack myself up sometimes!

And while you're at it, show me the evidence that the flight deck door's were breached.....

you can't.....

someone came out!

My point exactly. If TSA were around on 9-11, with the same rules in place back then, absolutely nothing would have been different (except that the govt. would have been blamed for security instead of the airlines). If you want to f**k something up, let the govt. do it!

I guess I will have to apply for the Federal Flight Deck Lighter Officer permit.

Can't wait until they try to confiscate a lighter from a smoker FFDO.

Freakin idiots!!
