Man won't submit to security, TSA won't let him fly. Who's right?

I believe the airports would support it. They're already having hundreds of angry backlash from customers. They're being forced to bend over and get "Advanced Imaging Technology" that they don't want. This would mean less air travels too.

Looking at San Fransisco which used private security... it was cost-effective and it yielded a much better result than TSA which missed over 60% or more in detecting simulated bomb parts. SF missed 20%. It's most likely that more and more major airports will dump TSA for private security.

TSA needs to get their acts together.

Hmm.... If TSA went out of business, they probably will go for porn industry.

Hehe... seriously, Israeli method should work..

yep. like I said before - if TSA wants to adopt Israeli method - that means they need to up their employment requirement.. which means probably over 60% of TSA agents will be fired since Israeli method requires only those from military and college education.

Israeli security guards are hand-picked.

doesn't have to be military but just those with strong personality and "higher education".

The reason why all Israeli guards have military background is because of mandatory conscription anyway.
 
"better" qualifications...less machines

but would the pat-downs resume? isn't current TSA policy to require a pat-down if a flier refuses the scan?

Yeah, higher education -- unabomber with perfect English writing habit that wrote manifesto.

just no groping, pat-down, or peek-a-boo :lol:

However - I do not mind for pat-down/peek-a-boo if our Homeland Security Advisory System has been elevated to say..... Orange.

I would opt for pat-down as long as that person who checks me out is a female.

machines are fine but they lack common sense.

Better Qualification. Better Training. Better Common Sense. Better Awareness. Better "BS" radar.

yes that's the policy. why don't we have a bomb sniffing dogs instead?
 
aw shoot - would love to continue this convo but have to go down to Philly. and no I ain't flying. I'm driving! :lol:
 
Transition to better qualified technicians...which means more $$(oops...more fed tax dollars or solely passanger cost..or mix). But if it's agreed that the type of machine of being used changes (i.e. no more super expensive back scatter machines), then it's an acceptable level of risk (financially in absolute dollars vs. terrorism) in exchange for no pat-downs...is that the proposal?


...What else could you do to not have pat-downs?....a simple ban?
