    Quoted from zr11990:

    Here is my take on the TSA. First of all that hire the bottom of the barrel. Its like they have a goal to pick the worst employees that can find. I don't believe that that are effective in stopping any kind of highjackiing or anything else. They are to busy feeling up grandma or some middle class working person thanto take the chance on offending someone who looks like they need to be screened. A criminal with intent to do harm is not going to go through the processes that law abiding people do. The tsa is more for control and to make it look like they are doing something. I do not trust the government in any form.
    As for vegas, it's a lot of fun. Lots of shows and great places to eat. Liquor is expensive and I suck at gambling. We are going to New York New York today and the pinball museum. I'm looking forward to it

    This entire post is hard to read, literally. I get the pat down everytime I fly, its a fact of life and I deal with it. Liquor in Vegas is not expensive, its dirt cheap in the right places. I went out for dinner last night with my wife $225 with beer at $9 a glass. Dinner was gross and the beer was flat. I'll take Vegas anyday.

    Quoted from pezpunk:

    This is so absurdly myopic and out of touch with reality. Ask any brown or Arab looking person about how frequently they're subjected to "random" spot checks and security interviews. Acting like you're unfairly targeted because you're white is just ignorant.
    (And yes I'm going to go ahead and read racial overtones to your "people who look like they need to be screened" comment. Cue your outrage on being called for what you actually meant.)

    My passport says I was born in South Africa and a Canadian. I am a middle aged white guy and get pulled aside and given the shit every time I fly. Special screening room for you!! It happens so offer I don't even care anymore, I give them some attitude to make myself feel better and 5 minutes later I'm drinking in the lounge.

    The outright prejudice is stupid, especially since everyone who works at airport security is from the middle east, go figure...lol

    Quoted from pezpunk:

    seeing lots of thumbs down and zero attempts to refute anything i've said.

    I can refute 99% of whatever you post on a regular basis, but I just don't care enough. Plus, you are never wrong, so whats the point?
