Why not just make flyers strip and issue hospital gowns and booties?
They can pick up their clothes at the arrival point.
What's the big deal?
They can modify the hospital gowns so your ass isn't in the wind.
Maybe go to a trousers and shirt kind.
Let everybody carry 20 bucks aboard to buy stuff from the plane gedunk
in case they just have to have a Snickers or a Coca-Cola.
Crew can organize prayer sessions (multi-denomination), group
sing-alongs and charade games to keep folks busy while in the air.
Those who want to can just watch a movie.
What's the problem here? Why aren't they doing this?
No more long security waits at the airport, and you can reduce costs
by eliminating most of the TSA personnel.
Be more fun flying too. An adventure every time.
Looks doable to me. I must add though, that I don't fly.
What say you fliers?

Or, TSA could pay attention to the no fly list and not let the jerk on board
in the first place. They may be too busy checking to make sure your 3 oz.
shampoo bottle is properly secured in it's 1 qt. anti- terrorist ziplock bag
to be bothered with a heads up from the Brits.
TSA is a poor substitute for security. It's been crap since it was set up
and not likely to get better.
I know the libs will squeal at this but mayube a little racial profiling is
in order? Like, check out people with obviously Muslim names a little more
closely than pasty white "Bubba Joe Smith" from Texarkana (apologies if
Bubba Joe actually resides on this group).


Give Fed-Ex a multi-billion dollar contract. Seriously.

Fed-Ex can track a package moving around the world in seconds with a
certian high degree of accuracy.

The US goverment with trillions can't track its own people to know you
or I have lived peacefully in a relatively stationary lifestyle for
however long we have been alive and moved to or from.

Profiling, couldn't agree more. This single muslim young male should
have been pegged for a good roust right off the bat.

And if muslim and islamic mostly young males don't like it, consider the
facts that muslims haven't been doing much to let others knwo of pending
violence. And I really doubt these idiots operate without support,
without family, without money...

Take the place this recent perp rented in London...it wasn't exactly a
cheap place to stay. Could have been a cover... would love to know
where he got money to live on.
