Long as it's cheaper than a few hundred or thousand scanners.

Sometimes, I wish you would make up your mind as to which party cares more about your personal freedoms.
It's always the other side when it's convenient for you to bitch about.
I swear it was those evil liberal socialists a a few threads ago trying to take them away.
Is there any law against taping small pieces of wire in the shape of letters and taping it to your chest before getting dressed to go onto a plane? Maybe something saying "Fuck the TSA", for example.

No, but I'm sure they'd come up with some excuse to detain you long enough to miss your flight, and then they'd blacklist you.

That's easy: none of them.
Is that what that mini-tirade was all about?
Absolutely none of them. No one in government can be trusted anymore. No one.
Fact remains, if Leisher's fake "terrorist blown up at checkpoint" video was released, it would be the liberals having a shit fit because a guy carrying explosives was detonated before he could be given due process. Am I wrong?

I remember a long time ago peeps getting pulled off planes because they had some sort of "Fuck the TSA" sign in their luggage to be found when it was searched. The luggage searchers, when not stealing things out of the bags, didn't like a plane passenger having an anti-TSA opinion, so they detained him.

You've got a ways to go before "not allowed" is fulfilled.

If they're only using it in cases where some sort of crime is suspected, fine. Probable cause and all that.
However, if they're just randomly scanning, how is that not an illegal search?

I'm sure they'll try to make some argument about how they are allowed to visually look at things like the car itself sitting on the street, and this is just the same thing with a different wavelength of light. It's bullshit, though.

Is there any way a "private charter" company could open its doors selling a product that doesn't require TSA involvement at a slightly increased price?
