WASHINGTON — A new law makes it easier for airports to replace federal screeners with private contractors, and several airports, after years of passenger complaints, are lining up to make the change.
The law was welcome news to Larry Dale, president and chief executive of Orlando Sanford International Airport, who said his airport’s request to opt out of using Transportation Security Administration officers last year was denied by the federal government.

Airlines or airports used to have private security companies to screen passengers. But questions were raised in 2001, after the attacks of Sept. 11, and federal inquires found that many private companies had hired untrained security guards. The T.S.A. was established, taking over screening at all airports.

Americans may be accustomed to being treated like garbage, but the high-class play from overseas are not.
Orlando, being the home of various theme parks like Disney and Universal Studios (and let's not forget Gator Land!), is enriched by the various sales and use taxes levied on restaurants and hotels, taxes paid by tourists. Orlando residents have clean streets and cobblestone walkways and various other shiny things courtesy of foreign visitors, without whom that city would be nothing but cow pastures and orange groves and beauty shops in strip malls.
America may be a smoking ruin of a police state, but the rest of the world is not. And these animals in the TSA are scaring off all the tourists who want nothing more than to have a good time and spend their money without being treated like Osama bin Laden or Doctor Anthrax or Madam Haqqani or whatever other fictions Americans have seized on while not remotely catchin' the criminals who put a 7-series compressor on Murray Street.
I remember about eight or ten years ago, some nuclear boneswingers in the Pakistani and Indian armies were grunting and defiling their environments or whatever it is that military men do, and they were scaring off the foreign contracts for call centers and such.
The business owners in those countries instructed their little military animals to shut their pie holes.
And they did. Problem solved. Money talks, and the whole, Achtung!, finger-fuckin', raisin titty-suckin' bullshit walks.
Get those pieces of human waste back on the welfare roles where they belong.
