Passenger Groping Required?

Do the new TSA procedures require that I thoroughly "pat down" my passengers prior to allowing them to fly on my Piper? Could be interesting. Seriously though, I have had a private ticket for over 50 years, held a lot more security clearances that the President, yet I am still suspect every time I try to fly commercially. Now, I am inspected in the nude or groped by a government employee. Is there something wrong here. There has to be a better way. How about "trusted fliers", If you can clear honest citizens to handle "Top Secret" tasks, why can't they be cleared to fly on US airlines? Interesting. No?

    There was a company called CLEAR that did offer a fast lane a many airports. It went out of business.

    Folks, I think it's time we (Americans)realize that it's a very bad world out there, and there are lots of looney people who are willing to get on a plane and kill themselves just to take a few of us with them. Ever fly in Europe? Lots tougher security there.

    re; the passing of germs etc. As long as they are only touching clothes it's no worse than sitting a chair that someone else just got up from. You pass way more by shaking hands.

    Sorry, I don't buy into the government's 'obligation' to 'protect' me. I'd rather take my own chances with terrorists just like I do with lightning strikes and meteor impacts.

    I told my wife I thought groping was a good idea. I am going to claim the TSA made me do it and grope my "randomly selected" passengers. :D:lol: :P
