You Want to Fly On An Airplane With Me for 6 Hours?

[BeFree]

I want your ass searched high and low.

[Chulanowa]

1. What does six hours have to do with it?

[gauguin57]

2. If I were sure I wasn't getting unsafe levels of x-rays, I'd gladly submit to the naked scan.

If they wanna see my old carcass naked, more power to them. But I never trust the government when they look me in the eye and say, "Yes, these machines are safe."

9. Ah, you mean like FDA approved! n/t

[boppers]

30. If you don't want X-rays, don't fly.

If you don't want to be irradiated at all, don't eat, or breathe.

[CreekDog]

3. you make it sound so worthwhile

:rofl:

[Cal Carpenter]

7. Oh good lord

Unrec'd and :puke: :puke: :puke:

eta: and no, I don't want to be on a plane with you for 5 minutes let alone 6 hrs.

[hlthe2b]

8. Sorry.. your fellow travelers voted YOU off the island (er, plane)

[RKP5637]

10. That was funny! LOL! n/t

[NoPasaran]

11. Unrecced and hidden

[pa28]

12. The idiom is a little too close to reality in this case.

Just let us know which plane you'll be on and we'll take the next one. Fair enough?

[Arctic Dave]

13. If you want to see what a good lap dog looks like, go to the mirror.

[Motown_Johnny]

14. If only airplanes were not the only way to travel, and not just the most convenient

then maybe people would not complain about the searches



But since they are all being forced to fly, completely against their will, they have a valid point about being x-rayed or subject to an invasive search





:sarcasm:

[Go2Peace]

21. For some they are. Obviously you don't have relatives in another country

Or are required to travel for work. Please don't assume your experience is the same as everyone elses.

[rexcat]

15. You are not the type of person I would like to fly with...

but I do like to fly with thoughful people who can process complex information and come up with reasonable conclusions.

[KT2000]

16. exactly! n/t

[Dappleganger]

17. Ah, yes...

it's good to be the king!

[superduperfarleft]

18. No, I'd prefer not to fly next to someone who takes a shit in the seat and then leaves. n/t

[frylock]

19. the authoritarians are always so easy to find as they hide behind their mostly ironic screen names

[Toucano]

20. Well that's settled it: You stay home.

I never thought it was going to be so easy!

Thanks, BeFree!

[abelenkpe]

22. Really?

You OK with someone searching your kids ass then too?

[KansasVoter]

23. Yes, cowards do give in easy!

[ProdigalJunkMail]

24. oh the sweet sweet irony that is found in a name and a post n/t

[Dreamer Tatum]

25. I'll take "Opinions Formed After January 2009, Alex."

Seriously. If this was a Bush-era practice, you wouldn't have posted that.

[KoKo]

26. You are Joking for Sure? Or...just want some hits for this post?

Hey, "Be Free"...you've been on DU as long as I have.. What's with this? :shrug:

[kestrel91316]

27. Fine, as long as YOUR ass is searched, too. And I mean that quite literally:

body cavity search.

Everything changed after 9/11, remember?

[Kelvin Mace]

28. Why?

It surprises me you're buying into the fear-mongering.

[alarimer]

29. I don't want to fly with authoritarian assholes

Or people who cannot understand that if we give up all our freedoms in the name of security we will have neither.
