Maybe it's just me

Post by A Rooney »

So a doctor picked at random on an overbooked flight,gets dragged off a plane bloodied by security goons.....The only time I have taken a flight since 9/11 is to pickup my chinook...,the whole security at the airport may be warranted but searching the genitals of young boys,flying with their mom...and incidence like the above seem overboard and extreme....if I have go somewhere I prefer to get in my chinook and take off regardless of the price difference.

One of the stupidest things that happened when this whole TSA thing started, was that WW-II Medal of Honor winner being told he couldn't take his medal onboard because it was a pointed star and could be used as a weapon. The guard didn't even know what the medal was. Good grief.

This is why a lot of people learned how to fly a plane. You're your own captain and security.

Tsa precheck. It's a little background check to access your risk level. Well worth it if you have to fly a lot like me. Much less nonsense.
