I will not be flying anytime soon

If you want to take a plane you get to pick:

1. Humiliating pat down you would probably get if you were a convicted arsonist
2. X-rays that are very likely bad for your health that the pilot's union is actively telling its members not to use
   

I've heard about this from too many sources and too many awful stories to think this is anything but total shit.  Its unfortunate there's no 3rd option coming out of the TSA.  Meanwhile I think I'll stay home for the holidays.
