A Newsweek story by Patty Davis says: “Specially trained security personnel” will be watching passengers for “micro-expressions” that will reveal treacherous agendas and insidious intentions at airports around the country. These agents, who may literally hold your fate in their hands have been given a lofty, Orwellian name: "Behavior Detection Officers." |

Ummm.... Good thing I don't fly much, because the airport already pisses me off.

Comment: Your should get your information correct before you open your mouth and sound to ignorant "meaning ignorant of the fact, don't know if you are ignorant of all the facts you ever thing you know. The tsa are paid quite a bit more than $9.00 an hour, they were made up in the beginning of past service people, very few police retires, they are now made up mostly of the everyday population, mostly young people going to college in their time off. As for them being useless the the air travelers, most "less ignorant" flyers would disagree with you as they feel anything that may protect them is useful. Incidently IED's can easily be and have been made from a innocent looking bottle of water. |
