Sorry, but you're dead wrong on that. They just made a "record setting" marijuana bust here at the Vegas airport last month. And it wasn't randomly found. It was found by the...TSA. When they are searching your groin they are not looking for an underwear bomb (that was basically as powerful as a freakin' firecracker for God's sake)...they are hunting for your pot or your coke. Those body scanners are now showing them EVERYTHING from what I've seen. So now they are going to see all...even that baggie you put in your mouth.
Totally ridiculous. The ONLY U.S. plane that I remember EVER being blown up was the one over Lockerbie Scotland back in the 1980's that Libya recently admitted to doing. And guess what? Nobody was body scanned, searched, and patted down back then after that happened. Nope. They weren't even allowed to go through your luggage. I used to LOCK my luggage to make sure that no employees stole my stuff.
Back then they had to specifically have you right there on the spot to go through your belongings while you watched.
And that was when it actually happened. Not thinking it MIGHT happen. A plane full of people was really blown up.
But back then govt. wasn't allowed to do this kind of shit.
The entire thing that happened on 9-11 was solved when they put the locked steel doors on the cockpits of airlines. No way a handful of guys with box cutters are going to be able to ever do that again.
So why in hell are we being searched and treated like criminals now? All somebody has to do is swallow a fucking bomb right before they walk through security, get on the plane and blow themselves up. You can't stop crazy people. The govt. knows that. If a person is going to kill themselves to kill you...they WILL find a way. So what is the govt. looking for exactly when they do this?
