I read that they are heavily investing in quick, on-site DNA testing too. Scary much.

IMHO no discussion of US austerity can take place without talking about a serious overhaul of DHS and TSA. TSA is a complete fvcking joke at best, and a serious threat to constitutional freedoms at worst.

Would have been fine if it were a bunch of muslim darkies. Good ol' white boys never cause no problems.

So if the TSA requests a random search like this what are your options. If you refuse to be fondled then what....

They won't let you off the train?

And it just got awesomer. NH bill to classify most aspects of TSA security screening - touching of genitals or breasts, under clothes viewing, etc without probable cause.

Discussing or having a copy of the constitution, and a bunch of other things make it pretty much a slam dunk against the TSA.

I was practically ready to go to war with the pricks when I went last year. But in Tokyo and London so they were so quick, efficient and CALM you'd have to really be looking for things to complain about. Even when, like a rube, I went through the metal detector in Heathrow with my mobile phone in my pocket they just smiled and said put it through the X-ray machine and go through again. If I spent more than 5 minutes total in security at either end I'd be surprised. And they've practically given up on the liquids thing. Seems though that they're going the other way in the US. Shame for you guys.
One thing I did notice at Narita and Heathrow was lots and lots of cops everywhere. Not airport security goons, actual police. The cops at Narita do hassle foreigners apparently though us old hands have strategies to deal with their BS. But in London they just seemed to be "there" which seems to be a much more passive strategy and ultimately a better one.

Wife and I went through Cambodian customs back in '04...it's amazing the deterrent effect that numerous men with assault rifles possess. The process was extremely efficient and relatively pleasant though....
