They are discriminating without any doubt. Even though i have no use for TSA policys the individual TSA agents do not make the policys nor the rules. Now if they refuse to serve Janet Napalotano then thats OK with me! But the individual TSA workers are not the problem. Its the same as refusing to serve the men & women who serve in our military, we hate the war and policys that required them to go fight but refusing to serve them isn't right.

Good intention, wrong execution of it.

No offense taken! Being in the airline industry changes your opinion on a lot of these matters.
It's shift work, between 10 and 12 hours a day. On your feet, dealing with ugly, b*tchy, sweat-pant wearing pain in the ass people who check all logic at the ticket counter (IE, "Ugly Americans") Now fellow airport employees refuse to even FEED them. They've caught a tough break, they have a tough job, and this just adds fuel to the fire of hatred to the TSA. In the end, i'm happy they are at least employed while I know so many others that are looking for jobs. Maybe I will pick them up a sammich next time i'm out there...

And if they didn't like it they can find new jobs... I agree with this! But that doesn't make the situation suck any less for them, ie- Making them have a worse day instead of just a bad day. Remember, we all have bad days on the job here and there.

At the Nuremburg trials the excuse "I was just doing my job and following orders" didn't fly either.

Just pray to your Chocolate Jesus that you never live through that, because that is how it began

I'm starting to give up... I cannot see comparing F'n Nazi's to Airline TSA employees. Seriously? Well please, by all means entertain the idea of driving instead of having one of those horrible blue-shirt-SS Doomtroopers put you through a 4 second scanner. Your sir, make Chocolate Jesus cry with a comparison like this.

The only way we can save the TSA agents from their own disservice, is by not servicing them? Well, that is all this restaurant can do.

Travelers should be doing their part by assessing their right of protection, from unreasonable search and seizure, and make the perpetrator's life a living hell of a day, when opportune.

Yes seriously... This is exactly how it began in Germany... my parents went through it The SS was originally Germany's "Protection Squadron" or Homeland Security.

Last time around in the USA we were looking for a Commie under every bed... now it's terrorist (mostly homegrown anyway hence treating US as the enemy. I bet TSA wouldn't dare grope a Muslim


My father once made a joke about Hitler (like we do about Bush). Unfortunately for him an Officer over heard it and the next day he was sent to the front.

Today we see this..




People like you need to be reminded...

This man is probably turning over in his grave



They who can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety

The difference is that blacks in the south during segregation had no choice about being black.


I don't think that TSA agents have a choice of who they are neither. It would take a low-life, sub-intelligent person to want to become employed by the TSA. They have run out of options in life.

Believe me, you don't WANT to eat in a place that doesn't like you.

Bad, bad mistake.

They best just walk off and write that one off.

edit on 22-2-2011 by freedish because: (no reason given)



Knowing who is TSA and who isn't, whether they be on or off duty, isn't near as important as the message being sent by the restaurant owner.

Technically, it could be viewed as discrimination but definately not on par with segregation of blacks prior to the Civil Rights Movement. That's an entirely different can of worms.

This is simply being used by the restaurant owner to make a political statement and as long as the TSA agents aren't in uniform it is unlikely they would be turned away or recognized by anyone eating there.

Any restaurant or place of business can legally turn anyone away it wants. Now, we just have to see whether or not TSA makes a huge deal out of it. If they do it will be hilarious!

No soup for you!

this is not the only indicator of a fascist regime.
Hitler outlawed all labor unions in 1933.
Anybody notice what is happening in
WI right now ???
Signs of the next Reich are all around us
in the form of a NWO, just as Hitler
envisioned.

I would assume that this restaurant being close to the airport got the lunch crowd


Here is another company with a great comeback. A T-Shirt with metallic ink

Make A TSA Agent's Day With A $45 Metal-printed Shirt




So, this company is selling t-shirts now for $45 with the fourth amendment—that’d be the search and seizure one—printed on them in metal. Get it? So TSA agents can read it while they scan you. It’s protest, “a challenge to their unwarranted searches.”

Be sure to tell them that next time you try and board a flight
Let's deny someone the ability to eat lunch because you dont like the job they are doing.
Seriously?

edit on 07/23/2007 by drink2forget because: more ranting.


It's not about the job they're doing, it's about how they go about doing it. Sure if what some of them are doing was consistent and justified then by all means come in and eat; but when TSA agents are found masturbating to body scanners, and essentially fingering women in front of a plane's worth of passengers then something has to be done. This isn't some restaurant owner's vendetta against every TSA agent on the planet, it's him sending a message to the organization as a whole and raising awareness of the issue before America's half way down the drain asking themselves what happened.

Funny you mention the unions I was just looking at that

Gov. Scott Walker plans to remove most union rights

Governor Walker to cut union rights in budget
www.fox11online.com...

And don't forget that Prescott Bush, Rockefellars Union bank and Standard Oil funded the NAZI into power. That is history now and Great grand pappy Bush was sanctioned for trading with the enemy, Union bank shut down...

Fantastic. So the TSA can be compared to the NWO, Nazi's, perverts, and are looking out to see naked scans of me or my wife to flog the dolphin to. Jeez, I always thought I was just suffering the 5 minute incovenience of going through a security checkpoint to help ensure my safety on an aircraft. I'll never think about it the same way again. Remember countless people go through security every day, including employees (myself). Sadly you only hear the bad stories and not about the average person that's just excited to travel somewhere and doesn't mind being scanned or having to take their shoes off. What have I gotten myself into with this one. It's a no-win situation.

They scan checked and carry on bags. They also randomly search checked baggage. They'll leave a little love note in your checked bag if it was randomly searched. It ain't perfect, but it's what they do.
