Hi all,. .BIN perusin' with interest this thread, and have experienced first hand (shoes in hand, belt, jacket, cap, pens & ID removed) these idiotic security checks in JFK, MIA & IAD. I think most points have BIN covered in this thread, however a point was made earlier. In fact it was more of a question. Why hasn't the mainstream media picked up on this yet?
There was one perceptive soul who did, in fact, touch on the reason; that there are those in power who want the masses to be controlled and sheep-like. In paying attention to the various forms of news sources available on both TV and internet, you will notice that there are definate erosions in how things used to be, in the USA at any rate.. .-No more Freedom Of Information Act (FOIA).. .-Systems being set up to monitor the internet and telephone lines. (mass spying on the general public). .-Compulsory rubella vaccinations in Washington DC for children. (this vaccine has BIN shown to cause autism in children) failure to do so can result in fines or JAILTIME for the parents!!!
The list goes on.
Sounds paranoid right? But this is actually happening. All in the name of persuing terrorism, the USA's Bill Of Rights is slowly being dismantled. Individuals who step out of the flock will be stamped on...Vewwy woughly indeed.
We need to be unified! I think the June 1st shutdown is a good beginning.
Forget individual Assocs. Maybe a concerted show under the auspices of IFALPA may have even greater impact.
For those real conspiracy theorists, here are a couple of interesting websites:
