Why we all love the TSA

You mean like limbs? A person with enough training and some adrenaline can do some amazing things with just their limbs
What about a fire extinguisher? Or one of those 10lb laptops? It would hurt to have one hurled at your head or just plain smashed on your head. The possibilities are endless.
I think if our government truely wanted to protect people they would have long ago hired Troy Hurtubise to construct a suit for every man, woman and child in America (maybe make it fire proof as well). Then everyone would be ordered to stay home... permanently. I think this would significantly reduce violent deaths in this country, just not letting anyone leave their homes would have a huge cut on deaths due to motor vehicle accidents. ;D

Exactly!
State of mind and situational awareness will save your ass more so than being armed with the bestest gun eevvarr!
Time sure have changed drastically since 'my days' and let it be known 'my day' wasn't too long ago. The Pussification of the Western male is nearly complete ( http://www.theothersideofkim.com/index.php/essays/41/ ). These are the ideals that the terrorist of 9/11 relied on and it worked.
Let me say I didn't graduate high school all that long ago. It was in 1984. Before I graduated HS I already completed basic training and AIT and went active duty from '85 to '93. It was during those years a whole series of events took place that guaranteed our pussification. No more corporal punishment in schools, the elimination of the 'gun culture' ('86 and '94 not to mention various state and municipal *edited to change* rape and peversion of the 2nd Amendment). Basically the identity of a man had to be restructured and aggressiveness, a natural trait, had to go. Specially those "icky" guns. Think of the children!
As luck would play it, I was spared that forced indoctrination as I spent those years in the Army as a grunt learning to be better at aggressiveness, as in a better killer, because the reality of it all we are all natural killers. I got a boatload of hands on weapons training, tactics, some real world experience, and so on. I immediately went in to LE right out of the military and got full blown exposure to the "final phase". And that was "sensitivity" enlightment, diversity (of how I hate that word-diversity basically mean anything that is white, male, and heterosexual is bad. Anything else is better), A.D.D. and that other one A.D.H.D. or was it called HDTV, I can't remember. Anything a kid now does in school which would require him to defend himself or just duke it out, they get labeled a school bully, cops come in, arrests were made, records were attached, and so on. And the final touch, metrosexualism. Metrosexualism isn't a real word but if they can just pull out 'enviromentalism' out of the thin air, so can I add 'ism' to metrosexual.
So is it a wonder as to why we see these Columbine events occurr? Now VT and NIU! Young males made to suppress their aggressiveness all their lives until they just explode. All while we keep on becoming further disamred. So at it's pinnacle, 2001, I really noticed the lack of balls many Americans have. Or should I say suppressed, because it's just have been surpressed.
This is contrary to what men naturally are. So the high jackers knew this and capitalized on it. There have been a brief resurection post 9/11 but we are being brought down in to it again even faster than before because everything was still in place. I see it happening to my 13 y/o son. I can see the fustration in him, and he is not violent by any means, but non the less you can see it in a lot of male teen agers. Be nice, don't be rude, refuse to abuse (as in defend yourself).
Check out the latest Brinks Home Security commercial. I can't find a link to it but basically it's a couple that just moved in to a new house for the first night. Then they hear a noise. The guy asks his wife, "Should I check it out?". The guy had to ask permission? Well it goes on. Obviously he checks it out because there is some concern. No gun, no bat, not even a flashlight. I'm sure he's the ideal TSA screenie. He opens a door that leads to a set of stairs and what does he see back litted perfectly but a guy bashing in the glass door. The first thing this "actor" does was to turn around and run away. All that was missing was him screetching like a 7 year old girl. Or a salon haristylists, although I'd think that a hairstylist might scream and attack with a set of scissors.
Everytime I see that "I'm a puss" commercial I would wonder had that been me I might have had a smile on my face with a Remington shotgun bearing down on subject, and with out a word, introduce Mr. Robber as soon as he stepped in the door to Mr. 00 buck. A perfect ambush! Yes, that's the infantryman in me.
Of course the high speed brinks alarm goes off, some concerned beef cake male operator (likely a gay porn actor on the side) would immediately call the house and ask if everything OK. In reality it would have been some 42 fat lady with a smokers voice that had been on the job 7 weeks and is about to quit. The woman, and apparently the one in charge, tells him no and that someone had just tried to break in. She should have also said "And my puss of a husband just ran away like a 7 year old girl". It's no wonder infidelity by wives are at an all time high in the U.S. The Brinks operator tells her "The police are on the way". What he isn't telling them is "but it'll be about 15 minutes because he's doing a field sobriety test on a drunk driver. You know, for the interest of public safety. Think of the children. So just go ahead and lock that chinese made door knob on that light weight and hollow Home Depot door that was assembled and installed by some illegal alien using your sisters social security number illegally, err.. I meant to say cheap and all too necessary labor. They'll get to you when they'll get to you. All righty?"
So back on track with the thread, is the TSA our government answer to the Brinks Home Security in the sky? No fingernail clippers for you, but feel free to clobber them with a fire extinguisher if you'd like, of course after you sprayed him with the extinguisher to blind him. It's a continuos process to not be self reliant and that our safety are at the hands of people who are not equipped to perform any real jobs and won't even be there when the SHTF anyways.
The 9/11 high jackers wasn't about who was armed. It was about training, determination, and the #1 factor, state of mind. And that was to be aggressive. What I described in my previous post was a situation where I was aggressive enough with the possibility of deadly force. Yeah I know, why a baton in a gun fight. I really don't know but I was resolved to hurt him intentionally to the point of killing him if necessary. And what I did actually saved his lilfe. Even then, a lot more so now, that guy would have been shot. And I've had two more similar situation that arised almost identical to that one since then. I'm no special forces operator or anything. I have had some training, but I know that certain state of mind exist on nearly every single male and some females.
Da End.
