If enough of them were pissed off and respond, there might be some adjustments to policy. If my goal is to rally support, I'd choose JMU Nation. It may be a fanboy site, but has a far greater reach than our board here.

JMU Nation Facebook group, aka Carol’s personal Etsy shop lol

So true! It's gotten so bad

It’s not about “beating the system”, I don’t really give a rats ass about that, it’s that it exists at all in the first place. We offered to EMPTY it, in front of them!
Not all that long ago my Son and I set up camp with Jim the bouncer, Coach Newman and the Dudziks and they had backpacks full of these little bottles and basically had their own mini-bar set up under the pressbox overhang.

Ok, perhaps that was a bit much, not looking for, or expecting, a return to that. But, this?!?

Why?

Pistol packin’ Momma with her junior year daughter in tow? C’mon.

These dumb glorified hall monitors could easily look at this thing and realize she didn’t have a pressure cooker, an A-K or even a simple machete in there.

So, the problem is, what, exactly?

Reminds me of the TSA dummies patting down my then 78 YO mother, in a wheelchair, while her two grandkids look on. Just the kind of person to be planning to blow up a plane to Aruba. Grandkids and all...

We’ve lost our collective f#%^ing minds.

Somehow to all the dumb people

Terrorism is a tough thing to fight. In Vietnam, adults strapped bombs to children who ran toward soldiers with their arms open for a hug. When the soldiers hugged the child, both were blown up.

We have sick people doing crazy things everyday and if they do it at a JMU football game, everyone will point the finger at JMU and blame them for not doing more.

Having the clear bags isn’t going to be convenient for everyone but welcome to the new world order where kids get shot in schools along with people in malls and at concerts. Don’t think sporting events are safe for one minute. The one saving grace for sporting events is the number of police officers in attendance likely discourages the cowards responsible for the mass shootings.

There is no safe place so I don’t complain about TSA or clear bags etc. I have accepted that times have changed and extraordinary measures are need to protect us.
