Airport Security

January 7th, 2009

Why sneak a bomb on the plane when you can bomb the people standing in line waiting for the plane? Riddle me that, Batman!

Joker said it best in The Dark Knight

You see, nobody panics when things go according to plan. Even if the plan is horrifying. If I told people that a gang banger was going to get shot, or a busload of soldiers was going to get blown up, nobody would panic. Because it’s all part of the plan. But tell people that one tiny little mayor is going to die and everyone loses their minds!

It’s funny to think that anyone could simply walk up to a long line during the holidays and easily take out that many people. And why is it that you don’t see this kind of security at train stations? Or at WalMart? I picked up a buddy of mine from the Amtrak station the other night and there were tons and tons of people flooding out all over the place. And yet, I didn’t see a single security guard.

That’s what I love about Americans. As long as you feel safe, that’s all that matters. Everybody is too apathetic to actually give a damn whether they are safe or not. I’m really not that happy about having to throw out my bottle of Aloe Vera for my sunburn because the TSA thought I might be a terrorist. Thank you O’Hare Homeland security. If I was a terrorist I would have targeted the TSA employees while they were making every attempt to fondle my anus.

Really though, think about this. There is opportunity after opportunity to attack people in malls, on streets, and at concerts. The list is really endless. The TSA is nothing more than a blanket for you to cuddle with so you can feel better while traveling on the big, scary, winged machine.
