Careful Amy, Mr. Ed there might report you to the vaunted, sacred Canadian Human Rights Commissions!

Everyone is remembering 9/11 today and all I can think about is how far this country (and the west) has fallen in ten years.

It's getting weird out there. This guy reminds me of the goofballs in this comment stack who complained that people were only saying things "for attention".

Does fame, however trivial the dispensation, mean that much to these people? Do they really think they were put on this planet to make sure that OTHER people don't get too much attention?... Or to snark at them when they do? If there were a more juvenile component in their relationship to the rest of society, what would it be?

Ten years later, does anyone really think we're safer because you can't get on a plane without being felt up?

Mr. Danneburg is a lazy writer and seeking attention in his own whorish way by attacking Amy. He needs to put the thesaurus down and stop filling the page with synonyms and actually write a real argument in favor of molestation check-points and being a sheep if he's such a fan.

Ed is a twit. My country of Canada, while we only have 1/10th the population of America, still has plenty of twits. Ed is clearly a charter member of that group.

As soon as Roy's podcast of your segment has been published, I'm going to post a piece about this on one of Canada's most popular political discussion blogs and then let other Canadians decide what they think of him.

>> Alkon" synonymous with boorish, brusque, crude, curt, discourteous, graceless, gross, gruff, ignorant impertinent, impudent, inconsiderate, insolent, insulting, loutish, low, obscene, offhand, peremptory, raw, savage, scurrilous, surly, uncivil, uncivilized, uncouth, uncultured, uneducated, ungracious, unmannerly, unpolished, unrefined and vulgar - of course - and rarely - this thersauric addition is purely self-cast.

Funny how he alphabetized them, or did he just get out the thesaurus himself?

Only a handful of regulars at the blog would know your name? That's funny. Does Ed know you run in newspapers from sea to shining sea, completely free of interference from an inbred royal family presiding over a failed nanny state?

I like the cut of her jib. Methinks Mr. E. Danneberg is jealous.

Methinks Mr.E. Dannenberg is a misogynist and thinks Amy is too uppity for his tastes.

I would like something cleared up: When Amy Alkon says she is "raped" at a TSA pat-down, is she only vaginally raped, or also anally raped?

The anal rape angle is interesting. Alkon is contending vaginal "rape" as the TSA agent's gloved hand somehow penetrates her vagina, even through clothing. Does not the gloved hand also penetrate the anus? Does she hold her butthole really tight, and this prevent anal rape?

Can we get this cleared up?

Botz... When your obsessions are so infantile, why bother? You can't consider the matter like a grown man anyway.

Amy, as far as I can tell, for each stupid troll you piss off, you get twice as many people on YOUR side! Go get 'em, girl!

For what it's worth, Amy's plight made it into a sidebar in The Week magazine (9/16 issue, page 6, under "Only in America"), which means a few hundred thousand more people will see it.

Well BTOU if you had ever had sex with anything other than a pre teen thialand boy you would know that vigianas have both an outer and an inner labia. Now I know you may be confused never having seen one in person, but assholes and viginias are nothing alike

Lujip:

My sexual practices fall within normal bounds, even for restrictive Western norms.

That said, some women have inner labias that extend beyond their outer labias. I wonder if Amy Alkon is one of those, and so is easily "raped," even by a gloved hand through clothing.

Another question, since you are so expert: I have never been able to penetrate a women while she has her underwear on, despite virile attempts in high school, when the long rod was made of iron. Have you been successfully penetrated while wearing clothes? If so, could you explain the circumstances? Is your vagina perhaps large, as in Grand Canyon variety?

The "anal rape" questions stands, until Alkon clears it up. After all, is not the rim a part of the anus? Have you ever looked really closely? At one point do we get penetration, if wearing clothes?

Perhaps Alkon can post some pictures to exactly confirm the depth of anal and vaginal penetration and thus "rape."

Keep kicking ass, Amy!

I'm a fan of whores of all types. And in this case the rudeness makes you all the more charming. :)

Ed's right (about the linkbait)

good job

BOTU please do the me the favor of of going outside and finding you nearest local Thai policeman and repeating "Bhumibol Adulyadej sucks elephant dick and he needs to be shot". You will thus be able to show your ability to express your free speech, your name sake by being the biggest Butthole of the Universe and if you are lucky you might be able to experience what Ms. Alkon went through.

Before hand I could take your rants and such. Heck I even supported them a little but you have gone to far in grossness and behavior.

This is Ms. Alkon's site and she does support Free Speech, but I would like to say if possible to give my vote for a ban of you.

The worse "fame-whores" I know are the ones that try to achieve notoriety by calling other pseudo-celebrities names straight out of the Thesaurus.

>> Before hand I could take your rants and such. Heck I even supported them a little but you have gone to far in grossness and behavior.

Completely agree with this sentiment. BOTU, you're sounding like a total douchebag.

Bend over, Ed, you need a thorough search.

What BOTU's comments mean to me is that he has never valued anyone else.

No one.

Pity him, for no matter what he does, he is truly and forever alone.

Hey! I am only concerned that poor Amy Alkon is only telling half of the story of her rape-humiliation.

If she was vaginally raped by a TSA agent, it only stands to reason she was also anally raped.

What is good for the goose is good for the gander....

See what I mean?

Is this the same Ed?

I wonder how his way-cool wife would react?

BOTU--don't be a jerk. We get it--you're provocative and edgy. Run along now.

We need everyone who has been violated, molested, badgered, and otherwise F'd with by the TSA to become attention whores about it. Only by being loud can we institute change.
Not all will agree, and wider circles of publicity will bring the idiots and know-it-alls out of the woodwork in equal measure.
Every landmark change meets resistance. Let this be another, as we seek to exercise our inalienable rights.

> was also anally raped.

again.

> Run along now.

Yes.

BOTU, this is not the community you're looking for.

Ah, sorry, bungled link. The guy can't let go of his topic.

Good on ya Amy, keep speaking out against the morally bankrupt actions of the federal perverts at the TSA.
If anyone knows where a TSA agent lives, you know where your dog can relieve himself and not have to pick it up.

The Age of busybodies. Collectivist zelots who would control all our lives.
Dry douches every one.
Canadian or American, these control freaks are never sated, just more bitter as every year they become more irrelevent to reality.
Good on you Amy, this got hm so riled hes frothing. I consider that a good day for freedom from these autocratic worms.

Government Officials: How Much is Too Much?
This past weekend, Roy Green had on his show an acquaintance of mine named Amy Alkon Do you disagree with Alkon and believe airport security officials have every right to touch you any which way they choose?

Segment with Amy & Roy

http://www.smalldeadanimals.com/archives/017790.html#comments

I would really like to know what it is that has gotten Mr. D. so riled up. He had to have been foaming at the mouth to have penned that total nonsense about the thesaurus definitions. I could understand if he simply disagreed - but he seems to have taken it personally. Why?

Was Mr. D. overcome by a pure and righteous indignation on behalf of.....government mandated groping? Victims of 'wolf-crying'? The right not to have someone call you on your behavior? Or does this blog attack his own interests or something he holds dear?

I was genuinely curious as to what his interest in the matter is.

And he writes that he regrets that Amy "won't get what she deserves". What does she deserve? Why not spell it out for readers like me who have no inside knowledge of what damaged has been threatened by this blogger's action, and what a fitting punishment should be?

Either way, the principles involved in this story are clearly not his issue, and so any response to the point will be wasted on him.

I think what BOTU's getting at, is that Amy probably means the TSA agent's hand was in her -vulva- not her -vagina-. Even though "vagina" and "pussy" are both colloquially used to mean vulva, ie the whole area between the outer labia, technically the "vagina" only means the hole where you insert the tampon.

I'm also having a hard time seeing how a TSA agent could stick her hand up a vagina, sideways, given that fisting is difficult. So I'm assuming Amy means her vulva, which I can easily see how the agent could get up there with her hands through the clothing.

Unfortunately in sexual abuse cases, these distinctions will matter, and if Amy DOES mean vulva rather than vagina she should say so, other wise she risks being raked over the coals for lying, even though she isn't lying, just using the colloquial usage.

No, but these things could make a difference if you do end up having to go to court.

Perhaps you should dump the "advice goddess" moniker. Especially when trying to make a legal argument of which you clearly have no knowledge. An "Administrative Search" is legal under the constitution so those "4th amendment rights" you keep screaming about were never violated. You consented to the search when you purchased the ticket and presented yourself for screening. Next time, if you don't want to be touched, use the scanner.

You truly are "much ado about nothing."

Dick? Asshole? Unpersuasive arguer? Then a lecture on politely disagreeing? That is funny.

It has always been my experience that the desperate use name calling as a result of their inability to win an argument.

You truly are all class. Thanks for the laugh.

Are you sure you want to share Randazza's arguments in a public forum? After all, they'll likely get eaten for lunch in a Federal court. Especially with forewarning.

I'm not the one being sued.

True, I have no idea if Randazza told you that or not, that's my bad for assuming he would be discussing potential legal arguments with you that would help define your own legal arguments, since you aren't an attorney.

Objective facts? This is your blog and your posts, you filter facts to your own tune. Typically, people don't put up facts that don't support their argument. Sorry for questioning your "facts".

Did you put up Ms. Magee's objective facts also? Or do you consider them biased and therefore unworthy of discourse?

Please share with me what I have said that is "unfair" or dishonest? It appears you don't have an argument to support your position in a "fair debate". All I can point out is your inability to answer questions about your own actions and your need to try and shout me down and call me names in order to change the debate.

Funny, I thought you were supposed to be a good writer. Someone who could get their point across. I feel sorry for the person you're teaching/mentoring.

Frankly, I'm surprised you haven't deleted me yet. I'll give you credit for that.

"Knowing", don't miss the latest response to your ineffective challenge.

Amy is advocating that YOU should not be presumed guilty of something for wanting to fly on an airplane, and you oppose that.

Sadly, that may be all anyone needs to know about you.

They really didn't need to see that you also oppose successful mentoring efforts. But you commented from a position of ignorance. Ahh, well.

Amy's not going to delete you so long as you set the bad example. Your contrast is a useful lesson to those here who both build relationships and tend to do some research before posting.

Amy, there was never a chance that you could keep the title, "Rudest Person In The Universe". They didn't know there was a contest. Now that they do, one after another will appear to take the title!
