So I am traveling for work tomorrow... I remembered the TSA 3-1-1 rule.

Anyone else think it is useless bullshit like the majority of what the TSA does?

The TSA does not need to exist.

US government should adopt Israel's style of security.

How does Israel do it?
For years, Sela has been calling for the “Israel-ification” of America’s airports. Supporters of the tactic -- which involves a great deal more face-time with passengers -- say Israel’s airports effectively deal with much higher threat levels than American airports with way less hassle. At Tel Aviv's Ben-Gurion airport, for example,passengers go through a series of screenings and interviews in lieu of dumping out their liquids and submitting to full body scanners. And Israeli airports' security is seldom breached.

It is bullshit. I find the best thing to do is pop a cialis before the flight and ask for the patdown. Flash a shit-eating grin at them when they get to your package. Enjoy the awkward silence.

When going through customs in South Africa they stick you in front of a thermal camera and ask you a bunch of questions to see if the bloodflow in your face changes (an indication of false answers/stress). Apparently I passed, either that or they let me in because I'm a white guy...

TJ, that thermal camera is just to make sure you aren't a Prawn impersonating a human.

The Lizard People may be real here, but in SA they have these guys:

Funny thing was that leaving the country was much, much, easier. I payed some random dude at the airport 10R (about 80 cents) and he lead me through the back corridors to my gate. No searches, no metal detectors, no lines, none of that shit...their security was fucking comical (pretty sure the dude was just a bum who knew his way around).

I really don't have a problem with the TSA rules or procedures EXCEPT that it's probably all for show. That report that came out a month or two that DHS was able to get weapons and fake bombs through the TSA 95% of the time is scary.

I've accidentally gotten knives and a box cutter through.... I can usually sneak liquids through in my carry-on that I shouldn't have.... the TSA does little but slow down air travel.

If they are not protecting us, why should we suffer the inconvenience?

I accidentally left a drink in my bookbag and the ***** asked me if I wanted to ship it to the destination I was arriving. I should have.
