The past few days have brought us countless stories about the rude pat downs at our security check points at the airport. While I am all for precautions, it seems to me that touching a nun's or little child's private parts to insure safety is a little over the top even for the liberal mind set.
I've flown with the Israel's planes and, athough the security was thorough, they never touched me! Seems they keep track of who is flying on their planes, watch your passport notations, and profile. They use their minds and intellect rather than their germy gloved hands to find out who they will or won't allow on one of their flights.
I'm afraid the United States is missing the point dreadfully with the pat downs and scans. They tell us that the indecent pat downs are because of the panty bomber LAST Christmas. Seems to me that if they had not allowed the bomber to board the plane without a legit passport, the whole scenario would probably not have happened. It took private citizens to do what security should have done at the onset of the boarding procedure.
And, who is paying for the terrorist threats? The ordinary people who are now giving up vacations and trips because they don't want to be demeaned and embarrassed at airport security. I imagine the terrorist powers that be are laughing at us right now as they see lines and lines of innocent people being abused and delayed at airport security.
The uninformed public is helping the situation. They interview people waiting for flights and they say it is okay for the sake of safety. Instead of fighting for our constitutional rights re. bodily invasion of privacy, they drink the liberal kool-aid offered at the check points. Everyone has to stand up for what is right or everyone will go down
Seems to me that this is just nother stepping stone to convincing us that micro chipping is the answer. That would truly bring us into the horrors of the 'brave, new world'.
Interesting to note that prisoners are not subjected to this random, bodily invasion . . . It's unconstitutional.
Our founding fathers gave us the best country in the world and our elected politicians are doing their best to minimize it's greatness.
