Here's a Thought: How About We Simply Abandon the Airline Industry?

Seriously.

    A female passenger has claimed that she was assaulted by TSA agents when she was ordered to be patted down because her sanitary towel showed up on the body scanner.

    The woman was wearing a flannel panty liner, that evidently aroused suspicion, causing her to endure what she described as a 'horrible' experience.

    Humiliated by her experience, the unidentified Army vet wrote to women's health company Gladrags to detail what happened.

10 years of boycotting airlines and they haven't died yet. Maybe it would work better if I wasn't the only one.

Oh your not, but they get huge federal subsidies, so pretty much if you're not buying a ticket, you're still buying a ticket.

Yeah... that has to stop.. cause that's f'd up.

Well, if they were not subsidized then pretty much air service would amount to 10 cities.

While there are annoying incidents happening, I don't think it's the rule. I had no probs at all this month when I flew across country for SRS and back. I was more bothered when they were more "thuggish" some years back, yelling, acting tough, all that BS.

Just cooperate, you'll be through before you know it. Really.
