I believe that was sarcasm. As in he also made the same prediction and was called a fear-monger for it.

Luckily, I still have my 1st amendment right. I haven't yet allowed myself to be put into a position in which TSA would need to search me since 2005 and I don't have any plans to but if it should happen, I will be the loudest $%^& there.

As much as the TSA annoys me, at what poin do we acknowledge that women and children have been used as suicide bombers in the past? At what point do we acknolwedge that non arabs have joined the jihad?

I don't understand all this TSA crap. I knew a few TSA people when I was in the airline business and while I never had a problem with most of them, I know that the majority of them were basically like rent-a-cops. Many were under-educated and although I didn't have a problem with the ones I knew, I figure that the ones elsewhere can't be too much different, except for obviously having a worse attitude. Are they just trying to make themselves feel special with their "authority" or what?

I 100% believe that what goes onto planes and into countries and such needs to be monitored, but when it borders on harassment, somebody needs to be bitch-slapped! And this story doesn't even border on harassment! This goes way over the line into flat out ridiculousness! I'm not anti-TSA but I'm for TSA employees with personalities and a little bit of compassion. These people need to get over their power trip!

I can give you 2 predictions which will one day come true (a) regular police will all walk around in armored clothing with protective head gear hiding their faces and (b) they will enter people's private residence without warrants (or warrants will be given out like welfare checks) and people will be searched.


I certainly agree. The line has already been crossed and there is no going back.

We as a nation have accepted that the government can strip search someone getting on an airline. The plans are in place for ships and trains, next will be commuter rail and public roads.

Coming from the other side, people with petting farms and food co-ops have been subject to over the top aggressive searches. The new "food safety law just passed extends search without warrant to family farms and anyone who sells, homemade goodies. You can bet the plans also include home gardens as that lawyer has pointed out.

What no one, well very few have mention is the new Food Safety Law and the Animal Welfare Act also includes people with cats, dogs and pet birds




Premises registration: Every person who owns even one horse, cow, pig, chicken, sheep, goat, deer, elk, bison, or virtually any livestock animal, will be forced to register their home, including owner's name, address, and telephone number, and keyed to Global Positioning System coordinates, in a government database under a 7-digit "premises ID number." (Standards, pp. 3-4, 10-12; Plan, p. 5.) Additionally, pet owners who own one parakeet, canary, cockatiel, etc. as owners of "exotic fowl" have been targeted for mandatory inclusion in this system. If you buy a pet bird after this system is put into effect, it probably will already have an Animal Identification Number. It will be registered to you, and you must register your premises (wherever you keep the bird). If you move the bird off your "premises" for any reason, or it dies, or it produces more birds, you must report such activity to the federal government within 24 hours. In Texas, there was a staff recommendation to hold off on mandatory registration of exotic fowl kept as pets, until a disease was suspected, then they will implement mandatory registration. However, that recommendation is on hold until TAHC decides what path it will take.... www.libertyark.net...

Excellent post!

I too have nothing against having a TSA type agency but I have a huge problem with breaking the law to uphold the law and/or provide security.

All I have done is whined, moaned and cried BOO-Bleeping-HOO.

I keep asking myself to do something - Anything...Unfortunately, I am too ???

My only recourse presently is to stay informed and distribute clear violations to anyone willing listen.

well i found this homelandsecuritynewswire.com... and if that is not enough to get you to read it and see that you have no privacy left then this might

Drive-by X-ray vans raise privacy, health worries

Published 25 October 2010

DHS, the U.S. military, and even local law enforcement agencies are buying and deploying mobile X-ray vans that can see into the interior of vehicles around them; the Z Backscatter Van (ZBV), manufactured by American Science and Engineering (AS&E), can be used to detect contraband such as car bombs, drugs, and people in hiding; the van looks like a standard delivery van, and it takes less than fifteen seconds to scan passing vehicles; it can be operated remotely from more than 1,500 feet and can be equipped with optional technology to identify radioactivity as well; the vans, which can also see through clothing and into some buildings, are raising privacy concerns as well as questions about health risks -- and what might happen if the technology gets into the wrong hands
whose wrong hands????

Half-wits elect half-wit socialist, half-wit socialist appoints half-wit communist to 'homeland security director' (Gestapo leader), half-wit populace who elects said half-wit stand idle by while their children are assaulted in front of their eyes.

Yet another reason to fire all public school leeches, I mean teachers, and start over. Education, not indoctrination. My visceral gut instinct, screw the TSA.

As much as the TSA annoys me, at what poin do we acknowledge that women and children have been used as suicide bombers in the past? At what point do we acknolwedge that non arabs have joined the jihad?


So where does it end? With unlimited searches everywhere, anytime by any person given the authority by some govt. entity? Paid snitches everywhere turning in "suspicious" people. What does this remind you of?

I honestly think this future will be implemented very shortly. In fact Fascism! No constitutional rights whatsoever. Internment camps, reeducation centers, waterboarding, ovens.

No thanks! I'm glad I have made provisions to bail as soon as the www. goes down and even that may be to late.

It took awhile but "1984" is here! I feel blessed I don't have any kids to see this coming dystopian age of repression sold as "security"

at what point to we stop letting "terroism fear" control us? you know I went to the library recently and right next to the section where they read to kids is a guard with a gun sticking out. is this neccessary?? this country really blows. seriously, there is no longer anything to be proud of here cept our past.

if people honestly like more and more law and authority figures breathing down thier neck, then the terrorist have won.

Again I add "The brown shirts are here"
And just as in the 1930's they are welcomed in by most and all those who criticize them are taken away in the night.
The new copyright laws make it so book fairs and used book stores are going to be outlawed. The new way to burn books if you can imagine it.

I believe that both have already been acknowledged. That Acknowledgment in moot

My only response is: if they look hard enough for the Boogieman, they will find it whether it exist or not

Stupidity in action.. Both in the actions of the T(errorist) S(tate) A(gency) and then reading some of the comments on the page with the article that several of those who commented actually agree with the searches.. Freedom is dead in america if that many people see nothing wrong in being groped and harrassed everywhere they travel even within the country.. Wonder if amerika hired the ex-stasi guys to train t.s.a workers ...

This has already gone to court and the same requirements apply. A warrant must be obtained. A while back they also tried to use infrared to peer into houses to find pot farms, also ruled illegal.

The mobile Xray machines are intended to be ysed at ports of entry (naval) for cargo checks.
