Default Many Women Say Airport Pat-Downs Are a Humiliation

What is needed, if the ACLU would stop complaining, is retinal scans.
Those can't be faked.


You shouldn't have so much confidence in that. Glass eyes with more
realistic retinal structures were being developed in the late 1980's.
There's no telling where the technology is today. The more retinal scans
are used for security, the more the bad guys will be motivated to develop
ways to bypass it. Contact lens retinas, anyone?

Then, of course, you don't really want to give anyone the motivation to take
your eye out of your head.

You are missing the definition of the word groping. CLUE: groping
is different than touching. Have you ever heard of a dictionary?


Thanks for that advice about the dictionary, Pete. I looked it up and I guess
I'm still confused.

If you call what the TSA person does, as part of his or her professional
duties, "groping," why would you not likewise call what the other
professionals do "groping."

That is, unless it is your contention that the TSA people are doing it ONLY for
lascivious reasons (sorry to use a big word like that, Pete, but after all,
you're the one who sent me to the dictionary....) If that's the case, they
must be insatiable. Wow, those TSA studs! So many women, so little time!

What's that boss? You want me to check for bombs??? I thought you said boobs!

This **** would stop real quick if there was a woman in the
White House instead of Dumbya.


Sorry, female politicians are just as bad as male politicians.
What is needed is a competent politician with integrity.

Probably not, but saying that a woman is the answer is silly.

Judging from the current crop (worldwide) a woman can certainly screw
up as well as any guy. Might as well give 'em a shot.
