I don't think what Aldon did was that bad. He was just trying to make a point. This TSA thing is ridiculous, a waste of time and just serves as a way to get people subservient to the government. This whole airport security system gives some of the psychologically challenged people who work at the TSA an opportunity to molest men, women, & children and get paid for it. I support Aldon. He just isn't one to back down. Stasi Goodell will carry out the dictates of our government and probably suspend Aldon for a number of games. It's unfortunate for the 49ers, but it's about time more people stand up the the TSA. People are getting molested every day.

This. Basically...f**k the TSA.

Yes, I understand that it may be a "dangerous" job but I don't think that means we should be respectful of them. I'm pretty sure that a lot more retail and fast food workers have been injured and even killed at work than TSA agents have. Most of them aren't doing it because they care about our safety. They're doing it for a paycheck, benefits, and to have authority.

Worse yet they do not get paid diddly squat compared to other law enforcement agencies. So they get all the reject cop wannabes, they are the bottom of the barrel. Give a low paid, uneducated, unskilled person authority and nothing but bad will happen. On the other hand Aldon has not learned when he needs to chill out and keep his mouth shut. He needs to learn when to bite his tongue and go along with the program.

All true, but it's a shame we have to act like cowering dogs to these thugs.

So, I come back in here just to see if anything interesting (about football) came up... maybe a trade, an injury, a rumor and what not. This is what I get, a what not, **** it... stupid $h!t like this!!

Seadderal looks like a bunch of goody two-shoe choir boys right now compared to our thug-ass team.

Thanks, Obama

Just a few freedom quotes since this is a TSA thread. I knew there was a reason I liked Sam Adams:

If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen. - Samuel Adams

It does not take a majority to prevail ... but rather an irate, tireless minority, keen on setting brushfires of freedom in the minds of men. - Samuel Adams

If ever a time should come, when vain and aspiring men shall possess the highest seats in Government, our country will stand in need of its experienced patriots to prevent its ruin. - Samuel Adams

No people will tamely surrender their Liberties, nor can any be easily subdued, when knowledge is diffused and virtue is preserved. On the Contrary, when People are universally ignorant, and debauched in their Manners, they will sink under their own weight without the Aid of foreign Invaders - Samuel Adams

What is so f**king hard about NOT saying the word "bomb" in a crowded airport?

Better to cheat with non-football activities, then to cheat with the game of football itself.

What's so hard about "innocent until proven guilty"? I don't know what all was said and neither do you

This. There is a lot I don't like about government agencies and the TSA, but Aldon's antics are indefensible. If someone runs around screaming they're going to kill people, that is not protected speech. Antagonizing remarks about bombs on airplanes is not protected speech. I'm tired of people using the freedom of speech argument. It does not apply here whatsoever.

Can't make this stuff up.

Yeah TSA is a joke, but Aldon needs to learn some humility.

I don't know what's hard about it but the fact that it's enough to get you arrested and pay a huge fine with possible jail time is absolutely f**ktarded. Really speaks to the nations hysterical paranoia and pussification.

How about the "Innocent until proven guilty" argument?
Were you there?
You are jumping to conclusions.
What's so hard about "innocent until proven guilty"?

For all we know some angry moronic fat lesbian TSA agent wanna-be man wanna-be cop didn't like Aldon and claimed he said 'bomb'

Hey guys my friend works in tsa at the lax and he is going to give me the inside info...stay tuned
