There are 2 accounts...

Post #16,903 by bepatient 11/6/01 3:20:41 PM Reply	There are 2 accounts... ...the airports and the newspapers. Airport says she refused...news guy said she insisted on not being touched...either way...she balked at a security measure at the airport. They then have an obligation to the remaining passengers in the facility to deny her access. No grandiose >authority< play here.

Post #16,912 by Brandioch 11/6/01 3:31:21 PM Reply	Bill, you are telling a lie. "Airport says she refused..." No. Not in EITHER story was it EVER said that she REFUSED. Like I said, you didn't know what "detain" meant. You don't know what "refused" means.

Post #16,943 by Brandioch 11/6/01 4:21:31 PM Reply	"detained" "popular use" Again, go to your local airport and try to pass security without being screened. "nit-picking"? Well, maybe in your mind. But we've already established the condition of your mind. "detained"
Post #16,937 by tonytib 11/6/01 4:15:04 PM Reply	You need to do a little reading: Airport says: "Ms. Oden was refused boarding after she failed to cooperate with required passenger screening protocols." OK, maybe you think "failed to cooperate" doesn't mean a refusal to cooperate -- or maybe you're on another planet. Tony
Post #16,941 by Brandioch 11/6/01 4:19:38 PM Reply	Read my other posts. This is getting so old. "Oden said that while she asked security staff not to touch her with the wand, she did allow them to complete their search of both her person and her baggage. " There, quoted and referenced. SHE DID NOT REFUSE TO BE SCREENED. Maybe you should do a little reading. I've only posted this about a dozen times.
Post #16,948 by bepatient 11/6/01 4:25:31 PM Reply	She did not... ...submit herself to be screened in the manner they require. I believe I posted a rediculous statement about hanging her upside down afterwards to make a point that you still are missing. IT DOESN'T MATTER what she let them do...what matters it what she did NOT let them do...and that denial of a required screening protocol denied her access to the secure area of the airport. You turn to come up with some more rediculous justifications for your very weak case.

Post #16,972 by Brandioch 11/6/01 4:47:47 PM Reply	Which was my point. "...what matters it what she did NOT let them do..." Kowtow to the authorities. Again, my challenge still stands. And your refusal to take it tells the truth.
