They always ask us to do it at London Gatwick. I always absent-mindedly forget to do it and have never been called back. Being senile does have some advantages. Never at POP so far.

Who the fuck cares about hollowed out shoes carrying componants when the TSA is missing ENTIRE BOMBS in carry-ons 6 out of 10 times?

Unsafe Skies? TSA Missed 6 out of 10 'Bombs' (http://abcnews.go.com/US/story?id=3746204&page=1)

If a suicide bomber is willing to die to blow up a plane, ho easy do you think it would be to convince fanatics to go in on a plan with a 40% chance of being caught and sent to prison and a 60% chance of blowing up a plane full of infidels and enjoying eternity with 70 virgins? If you could only get ten to do it, that's 6 planes blown up.

True. TSA missed 60% of the bombs but they caught 100% of the f'ing toothpaste and shampoo.

We should probably dismantle TSA and make the terrorists a counter offer of 100 Dominican putas with the money we saved.

I would probably kill more people taking off my shoes in public on a hot day in the search area at POP then I ever could with a bomb during the flight.

now that I've thought about it I think I do remember taking shoes off leaving POP in august, they have a new entrance to the Gate area I believe...but leaving STI a month ago I don't think I did the shoe thing...

your going to offer them 100 DR putas to replace their 70 Middle-Eastern virgins....I guess that's a good starting point for negotiations, but I imagine they will counter-offer....

It sounds like it is a hit or miss thing, unlike batteries which they consistently try to take.
