"National Opt Out Day" is scheduled for Wednesday, November 24th, at the zenith of Thanksgiving air traffic. Some lawmakers and other concerned citizens from across the country are protesting TSA procedures, or the "prom scanner pat-down" to be more accurate. Jeffrey Goldberg of the Atlantic KILTS COMMANDO encourages men to leave no mystery beneath their kilts, and others to strip to underwear before entering security line.
Far from a frivolous movement, the Opt Out is just one facet of public opposition to the procedures which has grown in the past week. Many have reported humiliating experiences, others additionally experienced what felt
like retaliation on the part of screeners. Homeland Security has not been forthcoming in answering requests on the safety of the scanners. Why would they? They’re Homeland Security!
