And they really think this is going to stop a terrorist? Oh gee, I guess I can't blow up the plane as I have to show my hands and can't go to the bathroom for the last hour. This is the best our govt. can come up with?

Just pee in the barf bag and give it to the stewardess... I'm pretty sure they would change the policy soon.

Back in 1991, when I was living outside DC, they ahd just come out with those adult diapers. Howard Stern still had his afternoon show (I think DC based). They had people wear diapers and then drink beer until they pee'd in the diaper.

Just means A.Q. is going to blow up the next plane an hour & 5 minutes before landing. Or enroute over another city. Or after takeoff from the departure city (more fuel, bigger kaboom).

This is the typical sort of idiot policy that the TSA and Homeland Security specializes in creating. The mentality of the big, dumb bureaucracy exposed once again.

Want to solve this? Start sacking up to people and tell them, "flying is a privilege, not a right. You will undergo aggressive security screening measures (like they do in Israel) and if you don't like it, here's a bus ticket".

Until then we're just going to look like idiots trying to maintain an "open" system catering to every "sensitivity trained" politically correct idiot out there while A.Q. et al run roughshod over us and our procedures.

Oh, and our present procedures cost a fortune too. But that's okay, we'll just print more money and borrow some more from China to cover it. What's the worst that can happen?

I don't know if you have EVER been close to a pig farm. I don't ever want to get close to one again. I love pork but pig farms make a cattle lot smell like a rose water bath. Just make everyone eat a piece of bacon before boarding. Anyone that refuses gets a full strip search.

Dude, my stephdad had a pig farm when i was 4...
Flanders is full of pigfarms...

You just have to be willing to make a sacrifice in the name of deterring the taliban's...
Think about it, if it makes your nose curl... what will it do to their nose..They know they ain't getting the virgins if they have been to a pigfarm recently.... it's 100% guaranteed effective.

I'm glad to see that you guys continued the honorable practice of jumping to conclusions while I was gone

Not only was that only for international flights entering the US, it's also already been DROPPED by the TSA.

I flew back last night and saw no exceptionally long lines, no extra security, no one being patted down. The security line took maybe 10% longer than usual, and they actually had someone watching the x-ray monitor as your bags when through. This was in a major airport that was still reeling from holiday traffic and massive storm cancellations.

My bladder exploding after trying to hold in 4 beers from the airport bar would be enough to take down a commercial airliner.
