rhaig 0 #101 January 4, 2011 QuoteI actually felt it was more of a whine phrased as a question. Unfortunately I did read your posts. Wish I could have the time back. happy to have been a time sink I'm sure my posts have inspired as much introspection as your posts have.

popsjumper 2 #103 January 4, 2011 QuoteThose "small steps" as you put them, led to the slaughter of MILLIONS of innocent people... If you think that the small steps that airport security is taking is in ANY WAY similar your entire example is either: a) APPROPRIATE AND b) TRUE ... take your pick. FIFY If you think holocaust victims have a corner on the market of being systematically duped, you are misguided. Thinking with one's heart rather than one's brain will do that.My reality and yours are quite different. I think we're all Bozos on this bus.

O M F G Hey - If I can get a banning for the word "Asenine" the TSA should get a permanet ban - No first chance - no temporary banning - just a permanet ban right from the git go!I'm not usually into the whole 3-way thing, but you got me a little excited with that. - Skymama BTR #1 / OTB^5 Official #2 / Hellfish #408 / VSCR #108/Tortuga/Orfun Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

David was uncomfortable as she sewed it on to his overcoat. "But yes my love, a small star it is . But what a large identifier!"said David. "Oh nonsense",says Rachel, " what have you to worry about? You've done no wrong." "Grow up a few years" Get it Lindsey? Fair Winds and Unlimited Ceilings through Truth and Enlightenment, "Treetop" a.k.a.

ridestrong 1 #107 January 5, 2011 Quote Quote Your actually trying to... in some way... compare this to the Holocaust.... Typical.Try seeing the message. He's pointing out that it's a slippery, and rather short slope from this, to "papers please". Obviously some of us see this as a minor detail in airport security, and some see it as a big deal or some sort of stepping stone to 'national lock down'. If there ever came a point that I felt things were getting way out of hand I would agree something would need to be done, I just don't have a problem with airport security as it is now and when done in a respectable fashion. I think you guys are making such a big deal out of this that it's bordering on conspiracy theory for you. *I am not afraid of dying...

Necessary or reasonable, maybe debatable, but respectable? Not a chance. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lindsey 0 #109 January 5, 2011 I've never had them be less than respecful of me. Been through the *thorough* search many times. It's never even bordered on disrespectful. I don't enjoy it, but it's a little thing and in no way comparable to the Third Reich...lol. That comparison just makes me laugh.-- A conservative is just a liberal who's been mugged.

That comparison just makes me laugh. sure, but if that's the bar we're setting (anything better than Nazi Germany is A-OK), we really have a problem. I made a reference to it yesterday - if the TSA really did mothball all their scanners and gropedowns for the Thanksgiving protest day, doesn't that prove it's all unnecessary bullshit?
