"Going commando" on the TSA
On November 11, the relentlessly upbeat Transportation Security Administration (TSA) blog discussed the newly 'enhanced' airport security pat-downs that would soon be coming to a groin near you. 'It just makes good security sense,' said TSA's 'Blogger Bob.' His commenters did not concur.
'The next time I fly, I'm wearing my trusty kilt,' said one—and we're assuming that he's a true Scotsman.
This was an idea too good not to receive wider exposure (no pun intended), and it was naturally soon paired with the idea of a 'National Opt-Out Day' to take place this week on November 24, the day before Thanksgiving. The idea is for a mass opt-out of the new AIT body scanners that can see through clothes, with participants choosing instead to have the more invasive pat-down."
