TSA to expedite airport security screening for $100 fee By Eric W. Dolan Thursday, March 15, 2012 20:18 EDT Print 55 TSA agent via MSNBC screenshot Topics: Customs and Border Protection Trusted Travelers ♦ transportation security administration ♦ TSA Those who wish to avoid body scanners and pat-downs at airports can pay $100 to opt into a Transportation Security Administration expedited security screening program. “It’s pay to play,” aviation analyst Michael Boyd said on MSNBC. “I don’t know how much it is going to do for security, but is a one time fee as far as I know.” Currently, only selected frequent flyers and Customs and Border Protection Trusted Travelers are eligible to participate in the TSA’s PreCheck program. Those who are accepted can keep their shoes, belts and jackets on as they walk through a metal detector. They are also allowed to keep laptops and liquids in carry-on bags. Nearly 100,000 American Airlines passengers have already signed up. The TSA has faced a slew of criticism for its airport screening methods, which critics say are far too invasive and sometimes result in abuses. Watch video, courtesy of MSNBC, below:

The relationship between morality and liberty is a directly proportional one. "If you love wealth more than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, depart from us in peace. We ask not your counsel nor your arms. Crouch down and lick the hand that feeds you. May your chains rest lightly upon you and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen.” —Samuel Adams America: Israel's bitch
These guys are like the a@@holes that infect you system with one of their viruses then pretend they can solve the problem with their spyware for $100. The US is really getting pathetic.
