airport security

[Burnboy]

The war on terrorism took a strange and sad turn Friday as airline
officials at Fort Myers International Airport refused to let a 73 year old grandmother board her plane as she had in her possession two, six inch knitting needles.

Apparently authorities were worried that she may knit an Afghan.

maybe they wouldnt have been so suspicious if the knitting needles werent hidden in her vagina.

she could have just have them mailed to her destination address.

and why aren't there security guards armed with non lethal weapons on planes? 2-4 guys with tasers & rubber bullets should stop hijackers.

well, on a more serious note, i had my entire bag rifled through when i flew to the US the other week. i think it's good they're being cautious.

our dudes are nasty mofo's.....i got frisked on an f-ing domestic flight! on the way up and back! luckily it was only a lil pat down. had they wanted to frisk my howitzer i would have insisted a woman do it preferably with big boobies

well in montreal (on the way back) i set off the metal detector and i still don't know why... the wand never found anything.

 

[danielson]

HS tagged you


so did they let you through or insist a 'full cavity search'?

 

[smallmovesal]

heehee

they let me through (after yelling at me in french, which i don't speak much of yet somehow understood)...

 

[danielson]

nice of them....they could have been bastards....

over here this guy (american) came over to london from L.A........when he was asked did he have any items to declare he said 'well ive got an AK-47 in my ag but dont tell anyone'

he came in the early hours of the morning. he left in the late evening

they done shit like that to my dad as well insisting that a wooden sculpture he had 'couldnt be that naturally heavy'

This is an issue which has pissed me off since 11th Sept.
As horrible as the WTC attack was, it seem's as though America's lack of security went a long way towards allowing it to happen.
Security in Europe has been pretty well tough enough to now. But now it seem's we must all bow to America's wishes on security.
My mother recently travelled to spain and was stopped at security in Dublin because she was carrying a stainless steel biro !.
On a radio discussion I was listening to just before this they were talking about how good security was now !, like we did'nt have it tough in Europe before this.
I rang up and while talking to the radios researcher suggested I could get on board an aircraft carrying nothing at all and still succeed in killing the pilot and crashing the plane. When she asked me how I'd achive this I said I'd garot the pilot with either my boot laces or belt !. Of course I was'nt put on air !.
In Europe now we can no long board an aircraft carrying anything metal !. Stupid, stupid, stupid.........

On my way back from California two weeks or so ago, it took me HOURS to get through security.

The lines were unbelievable, hundreds of feet long. When I finally got to the detectors they exrayed all my stuff, went over me with the wand four times, patted me down twice.... and directed me to my flight, in another terminal... Where I went through security again!!!

They patted me down again, exrayed my stuff once more. This time they found something in my bag they didn't like, I was shitting my pants as they wiped down my bag with a little paper for drugs and bomb residue. The asked to get something out of my side zipper pocket - I had a huge thing in there of free-form amino acids illegal for sale in Canada so I was afraid they'd confiscate them - turned out they wanted my razor. The guard thew out my blade andlet me go. I made my flight with ten minutes to spare.

When I landed at Pearson in Toronto, I got to Canada customs :

"Anything to declare?"
"Nope..."
"Thanks. Have a nice night."

I don't get why aminos are illegal in canada.
