Gotta Watch: Naked in public
A man in Portland, Oregon stripped naked in an airport last night to protest the screening process. Whether you think he's a hero or just plain crazy, he definitely tops our list of awkward TSA patdowns. He’s certainly not the first person to have an awkward encounter in a state of undress. You’ve Gotta Watch these uncomfortable moments in public nudity history.

OBEY AND BE HAPPY.
Until the Supreme Court overturns warrantless searches and seizures (water bottles, really?), this man is my new hero.
Two bottles of the right chems and booom down you go. Two different people bring it on. To be really safe–nothing should be allowed as carry on.
so is it better to be frisked, searched or embarrassed as opposed to your airplane blowing up or flying into a building?
If we can all attempt to think a little bit before making a comment, this board might be a bit more informative and intelligent.
Of course, by that logic, it would be safer if nobody flew planes at all. We should ban planes entirely. Think of the children!
I don't like the search either but do you really want to get on a plane that everyone on there has not been searched. How many planes need to be hijacked before we accept this. As many crazy people as there are I will accept it to be safe–and I know we cant trust crews that much either. Its not unconst. for you volunteer to be searched.
Plus I would ban him for life.
Sorry, the screening process can absolutely be sped up, but is still necessary.
The folks who complain about screening are the same fools who will say, gee, why didn't the government do something to protect us? when there is another highjacking.
What is beyond my understanding, however, is why there is not a "frequent flyer" identification card with a set of finger prints and photo on it that could be presented and confirmed in seconds for anyone who is a frequent air traveler. It has been suggested over and over, but the government does not implement it. I really don't understand the problem.
In the mean time, we'll have to see people attempting to expose the shortcomings of the TSA.... or their own shortcomings.
Yes, the process most likely could be sped up..... if jerk wads didn't make such a scene to slow everything else down. But I'm sure the stripping got everyones attention.
I don't have a problem with this – after all, isn't the TSA already snapping naked photos of people and storing them on computer hard drives. So he's charged with indecent exposure for doing something that our Gov is already doing to him. Doesn't seem rational to me.
It's simple ....if you want to fly, you have to go through security. Doesn't matter if you're a frequent flyer or not, as you might have decided to go "postal" since the last time that you flew. Just because a flyer frequently flies doesn't mean they should get to go any faster through security. Same thing as car insurance, if you don't buy car insurance don't drive.
The Best is yet to come.So sad.
Why is it that the people that do this are never super models? They are always people you don't want to see naked.
My home airport just got those cute little machines that see through your clothing. The president of the company that makes them used to be the director of TSA – that person signs the contract to buy millions of dollars worth of machines, and then quits government and goes to work for the company that benefits from the contract that she approved... Whether the machines make flying safer or not is up for debate – but the way they were procured stinks...makes be believe that there is no added value at all....
For the first time ever, I feel sorry for the TSA agents. That man is hideous.
