I am a mother with four daughters, ages 14, 10, 7 and 5. At this point I can’t opt out because the choice will be to have my girls MOLESTED by TSA agents. Our family travels A LOT and we are canceling all plans to fly until this issue is resolved. Today we have contacted our congressmen, our senators, Freedomworks.org, Heritage Foundation, Parentalrights.org and the CEO’s of the airlines we were scheduled to fly over the Thanksgiving and Christmas holidays. My heart is breaking because these are our only opportunities to visit family in Hawaii each year, but we have no choice.
If you are flying to non-us destinations, travel to Canada or Mexico and fly from there. Canada is starting to use the porn-o-scanners, but if you opt out, they don’t sexually assault you.
It is interesting that you mention that. We have already considered flying out of Canada.
If you are planning holidays abroad, drive to Canada or Mexico and fly from there to your destination. Travel only to places that don’t use the porn-o-scanners. Italy is banning the scanners, other European countries will soon follow their lead. Spend your holiday dollars in Italy, vote with your wallet. Do not fly or do business with with any US airline until they ban the scanners. If you can’t travel other than by using US airports, consider using videoconferencing (buy a webcam and use Skype). This will let you visit with friends and family without having to subject yourself to the degradation of the TSA.
What the government and its TSA are doing is wrong in every way. To understand why they are doing it, read the Nobel-Prize winning economist F.A. Hayek’s book: “The Road to Serfdom”.
The difference between forcing people through porn-o-scanners or sexually assaulting them with enhanced pat-downs, and herding naked people into a lethal gas chamber is only one of degree, not of kind. The TSA is the start of a slippery slope and if it is not stopped now, it won’t end well for the majority of people.
The best way to effect change is to use economic force. Boycott airlines, airports, hotels, resorts and destinations that do not visibly and loudly reject the TSA and its evil. Once the politicians start to feel the pain of their business constituents, the TSA’s reign of terror will end.
Great interview, Meg!
I am refusing to fly on Nov. 24. In fact I have been refusing to fly since Bush went bonkers after 9-11. And will continue to.
The Founders did not have anything of this sort in mind. Read Murray Rothbard’s _Conceived in Liberty_ series. I review it on my site.
The scanners, and for the most part the TSA are unconstitutional.
Is it possible to make airlines disclaim that purchasing a ticket may–”Among other symptoms, you may be subject nude photography, full body searches, being touched in private places, and temporarily restrained from your property if you attempt to use this product or resist symptoms”–?
If Pharm and Credit has to disclaim, why not Airlines? Hey, Jersey is putting defunct lungs on cigarette packages. Should airlines tickets have pictures from Back Ray Scanners?

the irony with alex jones reporting this is hes pro-israel, and the zionists are among those pushing bodyscanners.
‘In the wake of the weird Christmas Day “underwear bomber” incident on Northwest Flight 253, former Homeland Security chief Michael Chertoff, as if on cue, was all over the mainstream media touting whole-body scanners as the answer to America’s airline security problems. Since leaving public office in 2009, Chertoff had co-founded the Chertoff Group, a security and risk-management firm whose clients include a manufacturer of body-imaging screening machines. While some in the media noted this rather commonplace conflict of interest, ignored by all was a far more significant abuse of the American public’s trust.

The following is a Letter to the Editor which I sent to WorldNetDaily. Wanted to share it here, since I feel it is relevant:
To the Editor ~
Upon reading the recent first article which told of a pilot’s humiliating treatment when he refused the TSA’s full body scan, I could see immediately two ulterior motives on behalf of the feds. Both of which make this a win/win situation for them, regardless of how the American people choose to respond to the TSA’s invasive, voyeuristic tactics.
1) These new invasive searches which the gov’t claims the right to do in the name of public safety — whether the full body scan or the “enhanced pat-down” which probes and pokes even the most personal of cavities and anatomy — are giving the federal gov’t an invaluable insight or a “take” on just how willing the American public is to have their Constitutional rights to privacy or unreasonable search violated in the name of “safety”, or for the mere convenience (read, “privilege”) of flying vs. driving. Moreover, it is revealing to the feds just how much the people will tolerate such personally violating Gestapo-like tactics, even as more and more branches of our local law enforcement entities continue to be federalized. And it is but one more tactic on behalf of the feds to subtly condition the minds of Americans to comply with this kind of gov’t invasion or violation (whether bodily or in reference to our Constitutional rights) as a necessary evil that must be accepted in the name of “safety”. And,
2) If there truly is an uprising of enough Americans who refuse to comply with these sexually invasive scans or pat-downs, and who consequently refuse to fly, then the TSA (read, federal gov’t) will in time succeed in bankrupting the entire airline industry, thus giving the federal gov’t the opportunity to then nationalize the airlines through some bailout scheme. In short, the government’s feigned concern for our “safety” will, once again, become the means to accomplishing their agenda of further socializing our nation.
In light of this, it becomes critically important that all those who refuse to fly as a result of the gov’t intrusion make their reasons known to a number of their favorite airlines, and encourage them to lobby on behalf or their now disenchanted former customers to bring the TSA and the feds back to sanity or accountability under Constitutional law. If we don’t tell the airlines WHY we’re not flying, or let them know that we are eager to return as customers once this invasive practice has been removed from our airports, then we are only helping to bring them to bankruptcy without giving them any reason for the sudden drop in revenue. And again, this becomes a BIG WIN for the Obama socialist machine if it ultimately gives them the opportunity to nationalize the ailing airline industry. Hence, we must get the airlines themselves – or the airline industry as a whole – involved in having this degrading federal perversion stopped at our airports. It should be a symbiotic relationship — we provide the airlines with sales and revenue, but ONLY if they can provide us with a safe flight that does not require that we allow ourselves to be assaulted or sexually violated.
We must NOT let the federal gov’t win this one! There is way too much at stake: 1) our personal and Constitutional rights to privacy as well as against unreasonable searches, and 2) our entire commercial airline industry.
I would encourage all Americans to resist. But let the airlines know that you want their help in stopping this perversion!!

Folks, I don’t think it matters what we do because the government is preparing the Country for a WAR!
When hitlery clinton becomes President in 2012 a war will be initiated with Iran, Syria, Lebanon, Palestine and others.
Elective flying will be eliminated due to fuel supplies being cut off
from the Persian Gulf.
Airlines will be Nationalized. Our Country will damatically change and none other than those at the top will like it.
