AN APOLOGY.

[LMNO]

So, during my lunch break, I was thinking about the TSA debacle while reading a certain website.  And I got to thinking.

While I am a very clever boy, and can easily tap into group dynamics, politics, beurocracy, and human fickleness, the main reason I began arguing against the Opt Out Protest is simple:

I had a gut reaction against being delayed during my travels to visit my family for Thanksgiving.

Regardless of whether my subsequent arguments held weight, or may even turn out to be correct in the long run, the motives for it were false.  And for that, I apologize.

I realize this makes me a part of the group of people that were willing to give up liberty for convenience, no matter how slight.

I accept my punishment.

I am personally thrilled to discover that you do agree, and am filled with admiration that you could say as much so swiftly.  I hope it never seemed that I thought less of you when you were disagreeing, because that was certainly never the case.

I would say 'apology accepted', but I really don't think an apology was necessary to begin with.  

[Cramulus]

I accept my punishment.

Honey! Get the cheese grater!

[Richter]

Honestly LMNO, I wouldn't know what I'd do if I had to fly out myself right now.  It's a weird situation.  Whatever you do, I'm sure you'll give them hell one way or anther.

[LMNO]

Honey! Get the cheese grater!

I do recall saying "punishment".

You and 90% of America.

Your penance is to leer suggestively at 3 random people in the next 2 hours.  Go forth, and sin no more.

[LMNO]

These are some of the best punishments ever.

I've got it.  When you fly, whatever you walk through, make it FABULOUS.  (Boys, Boys, Boys)

Enrico know this day would come eventual.  Has phrase "Watersportsboarding" enter your vocabulary yet?  If not, soon will.

Well, why not?  The only person you owe an apology to for this is yourself.

I'm just here to give you an excuse to ogle someone.

Yuor punishment is to take Viagra approximately 30 minutes before the security checkpoint, then opt out of the scan. Make sure to vocally demonstrate how much you appreciate the TSA officer's affections.

Actually I'm guessing if enough people opt out they will just form two lines.
So if you accept the scanner you might not need the two hours or whatever time you alloted to make it past the checkpoint

Nope.  Why would they bother?

[the last yatto]

To ensure everyone has a timely experience, better then delaying flights
If they don't wanna get scanned fine, but your standing in the longer line
