Total Garbage

So, not only are the airlines only going to hold us hostage for a mere three hours, they’ve decided that for the last hour of our flight, our only choice is to stare blankly ahead at the seat in front of us.

Band-Aid Solution To A Real Problem.

1. During flight, the aircraft operator must ensure that the following procedures are followed:

1. Passengers must remain in seats beginning 1 hour prior to arrival at destination.
2. Passenger access to carry-on baggage is prohibited beginning 1 hour prior to arrival at destination.
3. Disable aircraft-integrated passenger communications systems and services (phone, internet access services, live television programming, global positioning systems) prior to boarding and during all phases of flight.
4. While over U.S. airspace, flight crew may not make any announcement to passengers concerning flight path or position over cities or landmarks.
5. Passengers may not have any blankets, pillows, or personal belongings on the lap beginning 1 hour prior to arrival at destination.

Not only that, but they’ve decided that they are going to pat down 100% of the people.  Would these people PLEASE give me a fucking break!?!?!

The little old lady with white hair and her poodle in a carry on pet carrier is NOT a fucking terrorist.  The exhausted family of four, returning from a ski trip in the Alps is NOT fucking terrorists.  We know damn good and well what to look for.  But because we don’t want to be racist and because we don’t want to be sexist, we just simply won’t admit to ourselves or anyone else just what those things are.  Fucking PC gone way too far.  Now everyone will suffer because of terrorists.

The hell if I’m going to sit and stare at nothing for a full gottdamn hour before landing.  What if I have to use the bathroom?  Too bad?  Shall I wet the seat, instead?  I’m not allowed to read a book or magazine or my Kindle for a full hour before we land?  I am not allowed to type shit in to a Word document on my laptop one hour before we land?  Oh and heaven forbid! should my sweater sleeves cover my hands. 

Are you idiots serious?

Let’s not actually talk straight and confess to what the real problem is, OH NO!  My God, that might offend someone!!!!!  No, let’s just treat everyone like a fucking terrorist!  Fuck you, TSA.  I’m not a mother fucking terrorist and I do not appreciate being treated like I might be one.  You know damn good and well what to look for.  It isn’t me and my damn Kindle one hour before landing, you stupid twats.

Once again, instead of actually tackling the real problem, (Hey!  How ‘bout those Visas you fucking fools are throwing around like candy), we’ll just slap a SpongeBob band-aid on it and tell the American public that we are working hard to solve it.  In reality, you fucking morons are not solving a damn thing. 

And the American public will slurp this up like it’s the best tasting bullshit pie they’ve ever eaten, even make excuses, “Well, if that’s what keeps me and my family safe, then I guess it’s worth it”, instead of standing up and saying, “Hell no!” and refusing to fly. 

Because we are lemmings.

Being led off the cliff to die.

Because we are stupid, stupid people.

And we never wake the fuck up until it’s far, far too late.
