I am one who has a problem with the “strip search” machine. Sorry…I see nothing else to call it. Should it maybe be used on suspicious people? Sure, I guess I would not have a problem with that. Should everyone have to go through? No!
I am getting sick and tired of every time something happens and homeland insecurity fails at their job, the first thing to some out of their mouths is something to take away just a little bit more of our freedoms and dignity.(And isn’t this part of what the radicals want?) As a passenger who is fed up with intrusive security because our government does not want to profile or offend muslims, I’m tired of being their scapegoat.
All that would be needed in airports are dogs and profilers walking around. Then metal detectors at security. No more removing shoes, no more “exact names” on boarding passes that is on your id (does my middle initial being left off of my boarding pass make me a terrorist? Really?), no more knee jerk reactions from the jerks in the government, no more treating computers like they are lethal weapons. I’m tired of being accused of possibly wanting to commit a crime just because I walk in an airport door and want to fly. And I’m sure that the majority of people in an airport would feel the same.
Actually, I do agree with Obama (wholy sh*t) about having the extra security in other countries coming to the states that have terror ties. But is every country who should be on the list actually on it? Will homeland insecurity start reading their lists? If another parent turns in their child for possible terror ties, will these incompetents listen now? (Can you imagine what it took for that man to turn in his son?)
Profile, dogs….profile, dogs…. People don’t like dogs? Tough! Then they are the ones to put through the added security. And if that is not enough, stop issuing visas to those in countries on the lists. Also, the government needs to start seriously watching the mosques and other spots here in the states (like the compound in the Catskill area). Ban veils and burquas in public in the USA. Turbans as well if necessary. If another person like this last idiot is caught taking explosives on a plane, he has NO RIGHTS! Do not read him his rights, do not give him an attorney, nothing!
And on the planes, don’t tie passenger’s hands. If they see something wrong, let them act.
Stop the political correctness with Islam.
