I've posted before about how weird my hubby's horse is... I just can't get past it.
She's weird! :coffee:

So... how does everyone feel about these new airport policy?
Seems like the country has finally hit their limit on what they'll tolerate.

I can't say anything about what Cyn likes since my Rompy likes to be scratched under his tail, he LOVES it, I feel like a pervert but still do it. He'd probably like airport security too.

It must be a mare thing. My mare absolutely loves it. She doesn't love much... but certainly loves that :)

An itch feels better when someone else scratches it.

That's the irony with her too, Bessie... She is really not a very affectionate horse.... she's a b*tch, really.
But she's got this one weakness.
The farrier thinks she's a pervert because she squeals at him when he goes to pick up her back feet. Squeals in *that* way. Hubby has never been here to explain her behavior to the farrier. I always have to do it.

Lol! :D
"I've posted before about how weird my hubby's horse is... I just can't get past it."
Not to mention hubby. Did you know farriers love it when a mare squeals while they're getting their hind feet done? It can mean a nice big splash of pee next.
I rarely fly. I rarely have days off, for that matter. When I see the naked picture scanner and the hands up the crotch and elsewhere, I don't think I could do it.

omg that is a great pic.. and as for the airports.. ill stand in the full body scanner before i let them put there hands in all my places.. yea nope...
I don't know what I'd do if I was a frequent air traveler. As it is, I'd probably subject myself to the radiation of the scan and pass on the pat down.
What is chapping my hide is that Napolitano is considering giving women in the hijab a pass on both.

About the processes.
Do they change gloves after every person?
When you get a normal x-ray the person taking it gets behind lead or leaves the room. What is happening to the people who stand right there all day, every day?
What about frequent fliers or someone with a few connecting flight? How much x-ray exposure are they getting?
Of all the people they have checked how many bad things did they find?
Pelosi said if we don't like it then don't fly. Really, has anyone groped her fakies?

I haven't been on a plane since 1974. Guess I'm glad I don't fly. Puppy came here on a plane, I wonder if they zapped her with any radiation. Maybe that's why she's so screwy now.

RD flies a lot and I haven't heard his take on this latest business.
I think people have tolerated the hassles very well so far. I have never had a problem or felt oppressed flying, even in increased security, because it's gone very smoothly and professionally.
But they may have crossed that line now. And really.... for no apparent reason I've heard.

They made a post mastectomy woman remove & show them her prosthetic breast.

They're checking/feeling pretty intimately to notice that. Did they take her in a separate room or did she have to do it in front of everyone?
I have an idea for making my second million.
I'm going to open a hijab kiosk just before the security gates at airports. They won't lease for one. I'll open a shop, a drive through, just before the entrances to major airports. I'll franchise. Anyone want in?
Hijab Kiosk. Oh, I'm just so multi-cultural I shiver.

I honestly don't have a problem with the scanners. I have nothing to hide and I don't have anything going on that will surprise anyone who has seen a naked woman before....
As far as the enhanced pat downs, I have pretty severe social anxiety so it would probably be a little awkward for me, but again, I don't have anything to hide, so I really don't care..... It can't be any worse than the time my friends got me to go to a gay bar/club with them :o.

Hey, you should pass this along to the administration people who are trying to explain this procedure. Sounds like something that would be helpful to them!:)

The problems with the scanners, if there will be any, will be found out years from now when tons of funky cancers start showing up in screeners & frequent fliers.

I've got mixed reactions to all this. I don't really have a problem with the scanners. I don't feel particularly invaded by what amounts to a line drawing. I haven't had one of these "enhanced" pat-downs yet, but I've been patted down plenty of times and it never really bothered me.
I understand why they do it, and I think it does relate to specific intelligence of the habits of the bad guys. I get that. I don't even have a problem with them searching kids and baby carriers.
Are the muslim terrorists sick enough to pack a baby's car-seat with C4? You bet they are. Are they sick enough to force a woman with a full mastectomy to wear a bra full of PETN? You bet they are. I would understand fully, if I felt it mattered in any way.
What infuriates me is the politically-correct way they're approaching the whole topic. They target obvious friendlies like pilots and nuns and children because they don't want to be charged with "profiling". Nothing could be more stupid.
Sorry, but profiling is ~exactly~ what they should be doing. Racial profiling. Ethnic profiling. Travel pattern profiling. Life story profiling. Behaviour profiling. ALL of it. They should be concentrating on the people, not the things. The Israelis have security people milling around all over an airport, chatting people up and interviewing them. Sometimes those folks don't even realize it happened. By the time most people get on an El-Al flight they're already been scrutinized by three or more different security officers, whether they know it or not.
You wanna know what's stupid and infuriating? More infuriating than a body scanner or a pat-down? It's to get off my plane in Seattle, and right there in the terminal waiting to go on board is a line of muslim women in full hijab with buckets of cleaning supplies. Apparently there's a muslim-only contractor that does all of the aircraft cleaning there. You can walk right by their office and waiting room in the terminal, and there's a whole room full of muslim ladies all cackling happily in Arabic. All inside the security checkpoints. They work there every day. You have to know that if they wanted to get something around security, they'd know how to do it by now. To believe otherwise is foolish.
Why bother checking the passengers at all? Here's a foolproof way that any local terrorist cell could get anything stashed on any planes that they want to.
Our PC attitude is stupid and suicidal.

The radiation used in those is extremely low-power. It's said to be about the amount of extra radiation as you get in two minutes on an airplane flying at 30,000 feet. A whole transatlantic flight doesn't get you all that much radiation exposure, and this is a tiny sliver of that. It doesn't even penetrate the skin, which is part of the problem, IMHO. It doesn't show things in body cavities, so it's really of limited value.
What it would catch are non-metallic knives (I have a few...) that somebody might carry on them that would otherwise get through metal detectors easily.

Probably by another muslim woman, in a private space. No... I'm not kidding. And even if they are subject to the security checkpoints... anybody that works day in and day out at an airport will eventually spot the inevitable weak spots in the armor.
For example... a blind spot where somebody can toss a package over a fence, so that it can be retrieved by somebody that's already gone through security. Even simple things like that.
