@ amberbydreams:
yeah but amsterdam… I mean hey. You get legal weed there – they have a REASON to search you.
@ Lady:
@ Frank:
Wait… so either he tased his heart and is already calling for an ambulance or ‘code blue’ is something we don’t know yet.
Maybe they had a squirrel incident once and call it code blue for some reason 😀
“Code blue! Squirrel in the building! I repeat: Code blue! Squirrel in the building! Close all exits near trees and send the pest-control!”
HE got TASED!
I wonder if he’ll get arrested…

@ Tualha:
That doesn’t always work well either ref: Kent state or any anti-establishment protests. Most end with beatings, inappropriate use of force etc, etc. etc. Those in power want to keep it and will do anything to do so. Besides just making comments like like puts me on a list. You do remember the “Patriot Act” right? Gives them the right to basically monitor anyone anytime they want without a warrant.
@ Vivvav:
I agrees with the shady character with a big knife and shorts
@ BarGamer:
he dived in the way of the son
@ Ryu-Chan:
you’re gonna let a comic that is ment to be funny put you off from visiting the US because of a parody of the airport security? .. do you not leave the house because they show demons roaming the streets in shows like Bleach?
Dominic…you. Are. An. IDIOT.
the TSA, how you know the terrorists have won
The T word! Hahaha! >:D
Odd. You think the guard would have shocked the one who said it
Lighten up guys. It’s a COMIC!
And, for the record , getting felt up by the TSA was the best sex I’ve had in years
rats, i’m last to post again. I think I need to read this when I get up in the morning, not at lunchtime.
p.s.: In october 2001, was stopped at sky harbor in Phoenix for forgetting to remove my box cutter from my pocket. I gave them the box cutter they let me pass.
may 2008, was held at Dulles Airport in Virginia because my fathers coffin had a strange signiture when they ran it through the scanner. (this was when it was off loading mind you). We were almost late to his own funeral because of this. I can laugh now, but at the time…
Yup, typical security people at work. Oh and in case nobody knew about this:

@ Benny:
yea…. benny…. about that…. they check the luggage BEFORE you get on the plane…. just thought i would remind ya ’bout that
@ david:
hah, true, plus there is the fact that we nearly got a 200 dollar fine for forgetting there were three Italian Oranges in our carry-on when we got back to the USA. So Amsterdam wasn’t nearly as bad as my home.
Besides, they had had a terrorist problem just a few weeks before we were there.
@ Someone:
more likely, “code blue” means something like “someone said terror, get them!!!”
Hehhe, there are some interesting stories out there of foreign animals doing harm. I heard that a whole part of Australia was reduced to a desert because someone took their pet rabbit with them
Well folks thats economy for you when in an airport the guy CLOSEST to the guy with the weapon gets the honor of “taking the bull by the horns”.
I wonder what he’s saying to the person on the phone? “Sir, this family has been smuggling a terror squirrel unauthorized in a flight to the USA. Be on guard, the squirrel apparently ‘is ready to strike at any minute’. “
Guys code blue means, Someone smuggled a TERROR squirel And i need more Tazors,cofee, And a Whole lot of donuts.
@ borg:
Unless your luggage is carry-on, then you have to get it checked in customs and scanned before you’re allowed to enter the US :/
It’s a comic. Things happen because they are funny or entertaining.
@ mouseanderson: I have a cousin who was late for his own funeral! He got sent to the wrong town. XD
code blue varies at each site I’m a security guard at, so I don’t know what TSA’s code blue is, but I know code blue at the one I’m at right now is a warning to everyone on site that we are under lockdown, and police are on their way to assist in secure the facility. at most others through it is medical related,
@ firedome:
TSA: tase first, fondle while unconscious
YES! FINNALY A TOP RATED COMIC awesome birthday present :3

I’ve lived in Texas and Utah, and we’re nice here too. Just so long as you don’t go out stealing stuff in Texas. People get praised for giving burglars acute lead poisoning here.
I wish people would lay off the TSA. They don’t get paid much and they deal with grouchy people all day long. And BTW. this TSA guy just got bit and the teen’s reaction is to snark at him? what a jerk. The agents probably going to have to get shots, and may lose his job for allowing a foreign species into the U.S. but its okay b/c he’s just an evil TSA agent.
The reason i stopped visiting the US, entering there you get treated like an criminal.
It was never that bad traveling into communistic countries during cold war, border controlls where strict but they did behave much better.
Entering the US i had to explain my travel plans in detail (i never make any for more than the first three days) so i was very suspect and had made one up on the spot.
I am used to move rather freely and not used to stumble over an police officer every few steps.
“First tase, later ask” rule reminds me case of Robert Dziekański’s death: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Dzieka%C5%84ski_Taser_incident …
@ Moxie Man:
It was necessary, it might have been carrying terrorist vitamins.
@ Gabrielsthoughts:
“Can’t we all just get along?” was quoted by Rodney King during the ’92 L.A. race riot. I think that kid you’re referring to said “Don’t tase me, bro!”
@ Cygnata:
It’s a testament of American stupidity to believe all the stereotypes and propaganda depicted in the mainstream (and even some alternative) media and blame Middle Easterners for this. Most terrorists come from Europe and South America. All evidence shows that 911 was an inside job, and even if it wasn’t, would they have been so gung-ho about bombing the perpetrator’s country back into the Stone Age if they turned out to be blue-eyed blond Swedes?

If everyone hates the TSA, don’t you ever think that it might be for a reason? They are an agency that exists solely for the purpose of harassing travellers. It’s patently absurd to act surprised that people object to such treatment.
For people who live outside of the US: Yes, the TSA is actually THAT paranoid. It’s almost to the point that they have schizophrenic paranoia, considering the fact that they just about make up threats daily.
I remember a particular example of this, mentioned by Dan Avidan of Game Grumps, where he said the word “Grrrrenadens!” exactly like that and the TSA were IMMEDIATELY all over him.
Canada likes to taze people to death, too. We had that Pole who was tased because he couldn’t speak English, got flustered and waved a stapler at people.
A STAPLER! Dangerous weapons here in Canada.
Oh man! this one is just gold!
First rule of airport safety: Airport Security has no sense of humor and holds grudges.
