Solution to TSA Problem...Who is with me?

[ehaecker]

I find the contract "TSA" to be even worse. Anybody who has had to go through in FSD will agree...

Those guys have major egos. They make crews stand in line. They won't even allow us to jump to the front podium to have our ID's checked.

So? Sounds like the airline's problem with delayed flights, not our problem!

All crew need to stand together on this. And should Napalitano ever fly commercial, the captain needs to find her presence detrimental to the safety of the flight and deny her boarding.

Go to the front anyway. Crew are to have priority. Besides, isn't FSD podunk enough to go through Ops?

Without the crews, the airports are just overpriced malls and the TSA just mall cops.

So are there any other pilots who are brave enough to stand with me?

Yes there are. And more than you think. Every time one of us stands up and says no others take notice.

I'm with you. I'd rather live in the back woods of Tennessee eating squirrel than be subjected to daily mandatory testicle inspection by a government agent.

Already made the decision, I wont go through the scanner and nobody is touching me. As a family we have decided were done traveling until this goes away.

Dont cut in line ANYMORE! Bring to light anyway possible the absurd fact tha we go through security in the first place.

How is it that its ok to skip security in domicile as you ride the bus into sterile, but not ok at other airports?

Pilots going through security while working is a FARSE, and should be brought to light by clogging up the security line and going through as SLOW as possible. If you get the new style pat down, call in sick after you're assaulted by some SMURF.

 

[Mr Wu]

You guys really want to make a statement?

When the smurf garbs your balls, you grab his balls. You'll be arrested for assault but it will make every news station in the country. You can then showcase how him touching you is not assault but you touching him in the same way is assault. So, who has the balls? (pun intended)

When TSA starts stroking you, just start pumping your junk in the same motion. Moan, ooh, ahh, a little and say "could you go a little to the left?"

It didn't take long, looks like Orlando is going to opt out of using TSA...

Unfortunately, that doesn't solve much:

"The TSA points out that even if an airport decides to use a private firm for security, the screeners still must follow TSA guidelines. That would include using enhanced pat-downs and the full-body scanners if they are installed at the airport."

So the molestation is just being outsourced.

I have a co-worker who declines the scanner, accepts the "freedom grope" and then starts moaning like Sally in "When Harry met Sally." It's a guy. The last time he did it the "additional screening" ended in about 3.2 seconds.

It's stupid to subject us to this nonsense. Why would we need to bring a weapon on board if we were determined to bring the plane down? We are flying the damned thing. All we would have to do is fly into the ground!

Isn't it a bit risky these days to make a statement that testifies to your possession of common sense? You might have to answer questions about your psychological state at your next FAA med exam.

You're right. How stupid of me! Hence my moniker.

That's actually happened before on an Egyptian flight. The copilot wanted to commit suicide. He was heard screaming Allahu Hakbar as they were going down....

If you get the new style pat down, call in sick after you're assaulted by some SMURF.

Bingo.

I'm just a contract pilot so I don't get a sick policy...but if selected for the porn-o-matic, I'm opting out. If told I'll be molested, I'll grab my belongings and head to the car. I don't need paid that badly.

If you have a sick policy, absolutely use it. I know I'd be mentally unfit to fly after someone sexually assaulted me.

I got a feeling that if any one of us actually does this...it will be a clear case of "When keeping it real goes wrong"

Now having said that...I go to work now and have people touching my genitals...but at least I'm paid well for it!
