And this is what is wrong with the TSA. They are no better trained than the private companies that used to do the same job but they do cost us nearly 1000x as much.
The judicial branch does not choose to file charges. The executive branch does. While you may be technically correct, eventually allowing that immunity becomes a political liability.
Well TSA "agents" are not actually law enforcement officers. I would be a lot more worried about the local or airport cops that are usually within 20 feet of the checkpoint.
I have an 18 year old, a 15 year old and a 3 year old (adopted about a year ago). While parenting is not always easy, it is not quite as difficult as a lot of people make it out to be. The rewards far out weigh the difficulty. I do not believe you have to be a parent to understand the challenges or difficulty. Everyone one of us without a mental defect has memories back to age 4 or so. You do not have to be a parent to give sound advice nor does being a parent qualify you as an expert.
I am very concerned with the parents who try to make themselves out as martyrs. How must their children feel.
Maybe we should ship all of the worlds children to large, mostly empty island for 12 years. This is the ultimate in efficiency. I am thinking of a place.
TFA is a sham. It completely misrepresents both the change and the athletic budget. Perhaps instead of having faith in an absurdly inflammatory article with no facts in it, you should do a little research on your own.
They increase their budget because they need to spend their projected revenue increase. A significant portion of that increase will be in the contribution to the university. Read the budget (it is public information and I linked it 10 times in this thread already).
BTW, I bet your state funded high school has a lot more waste than the University you refuse to support. I suppose you are happy to donate to layer upon layer of pointless administration.
Well at UF the athletic deprtment makes more than $6 million in contributions plus pays $1.5 million in scholarships to the University. Not sure how it was at your schools. Eliminating those coaches (funded from the Athletics budget and revenue) would cause the school to lose at least $6 million a year in revenue. If you are talking about a major school like Wisconsin, the result would be the same. Firing the coaches would result in the school having less revenue in the general fund.
The UF Athletic Department contributed over 6 million dollars to the University (More than 3x the CS budget being cut). The department also paid 1.6 million for University Services they Consumed. All of their facilities, salaries, and scholarships (another 1.5 million that went to the University BTW) are funded from the athletic department budget as well.

Read the article.
Damn I am out of mod points. Jk. Before you get on your high horse in the future, consider reading the article.

They did create it...

The TSA can't make you go anywhere all they can do is prevent you fro going in.
They aren't. The police are always very close by though. You would get a good lick or two in before they put you down. May be worth it.

Nobody really went there for one before...
Actually this guy did charge directly for services.
What a complete failure of a summary.
That is silly on every level. You clearly had horrible parents, but that does not mean everyone else did.
I have biological and adopted children and I spit on his claims of morality too.

The worst choice is a professional politician that pretends it isn't one (like a Sarah Palin for example).

Our countries have trade schools as well. We are discussing university education. It is possible we define this distinction differently.
It does represent what is wrong with University Education today. People think it is a trade school.

It is the science behind computing (Normally). Maybe you should have read the catalog before spending $10ks....

If they run a budget surplus, that goes (at least in part) to the University. http://www.uaa.ufl.edu/uaa/Executive_Summary_2011-2012.pdf
Your assumption that arts and humanities are not useful is so incredibly flawed it is sad to think you might have more than a junior high education.
Last year the Athletic department contribute $6 million to the university (beyond the Services used by the department). http://www.uaa.ufl.edu/uaa/Executive_Summary_2011-2012.pdf
So, by cutting football (read the budget) You would be killing two more similar departments, not just CS.
