or perhaps had the person copperated in the first place, it wouldn't have happened...:lookaroun basically, it seems like the ones who have a big problem are the ones who go up to the metal detector and make problems for themselves, then want to blame the TSA for the delay that they themselves...

has there ever been a "forced shoe removal incident" that delayed the line more than 16 seconds? :veryconfu :brick: :lookaroun

man u just made me have a literal laugh out loud moment :lol: thanks :D

You're not going to give up what right? What is the issue? I mean, maybe it's because I work on the side of the law that I don't understand why people want to be uncooperative "just because they can". It just makes things difficult. Like the people who go off on the deputies at the courthouse...

i dont think it's too far fetched to think no one is going to try because they would likely get caught during shoe removal...:lookaroun heck that's enough deterrent for me to not bring a nail file, let alone a bomb, in my humble opinion, the fact alone that someone else has tried something...

Isn't that the idea? :confused: :lookaroun

Thank u, now THAT is something worth getting into a tizzy over. :lol:

indeed good points. i am passionate about helping neglected children and bringing more people back into the church. i am passionate about my boyfriend :o. i am passionate about taking care of my family. i am passionate about going to orlando whenver possible :D... taking off my shoes and...

I may be alone on this, but I have trouble believing that the primary goal of the terrorists was to get people to concede to shoe searches in the airport...:lookaroun I don't think they would be as happy to see me hand over my shoes without a fuss, as they would be to see someone in an uproar...

Am I missing something? That analogy just doesn't make sense to me...:lookaroun but then, i find it more evasive and more troublesome to remove a bra then to remove shoes... I think the point is, it's NO TROUBLE AT ALL to remove some tennis shoes then put them back on, even if it is 4 times...

i was just thinking, most of my shoes are almost as easy to slip on and off as flip flops. I have slipped tennis shoes right back on super quick, so I REALLY don't see the problem, unles of course you're wearing thigh high boots :lol:, but i would think if u knew what was coming u would wear the...

entire post, very well put, but especially this part:lol: , which is such a very good point. :sohappy:

yeah after being "randomly selected" and having to go through the "bomb detecting machine" and have my bags and even drinks thoroughly searched, removing my shoes is really minor in the grand scheme of things...:lookaroun

I'd say i fly 3-4 times per year, mostly into Florida. The only airports I've ever flown into are Detroit, Lansing, Flint (all michigan), Sanford, Orlando, Jacksonville (FL), DC (not sure which one), LAX, Denver, St Louis, and Paris (charles de gaulle). the rest of the places I've been to have...

I'm with ya on that mystery. I put it in the category of "minor inconvenience" or maybe even "minor annoyance" but nothing to get all worked into a tizzy over :rolleyes: However I do know people who are somewhat OCD over their possible smelly feet, or holes in socks, or unpainted toes, etc...

I commented on that in my last post, wondering why people don't check their suitcase. When I think of carry on, i think of a bad with magazines, snacks, headphones, cards - i.e. things u need to access on the plane. I figured it was because people were impatient and didn't want to wait on their...

I did that once...it was when I first learned that u didn't have to take flip flops off. I had taken mine off and put them in the bin and they told me to put them back on because I didn't need to take them off...:o probably an extra 7 second delay... Guilty again. :lookaroun I'm not one of...

I live in Michigan, about an hour from Detroit, and you can pass right over to Windsor, Ontario (Canada) easily from there. So one day we were coming back over the border and were "randomly selected" for a vehicle search. Well I had changed clothes in the car, and for whatever reason had a...

See that's why I'm on the bitter bandwagon that they got rid of it. Different strokes for different folks. Some people can be terrified on the Mummy but love the Hulk - should they get rid of the Mummy? Some people could be terrified on Expedition Everest but love ToT. Get rid of Everest? Some...

I agree with most of your post, except i don't think "this is a stupid topic started for one reason" because I had been thinking the same thing when I heard of the most recent death. The conspiracy theorist part of my brain was saying "what a coincidence, they ALL had heart...
