Congressman: Secret Report On TSA Will “Knock Your Socks Off”

http://www.lewrockwell.com/blog/lewrw/archives/97413.html

Rep[robate] John Mica (R-Fl) has treated the TSA to yet another of his verbal lashings: the agency and its security sham are "idiotic," "a mess," and "off the charts" when it comes to rates of failure.

John seems to have forgotten we’ve heard it all before, on many, many occasions. Indeed, it’s way past time this chairman of the House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee moved from words to deeds: Let him wield the power of his office to abolish the TSA.

But that would diminish Our Rulers’ power over the serfs, not something King John even remotely approves. So he will continue throwing tantrums, grabbing headlines for himself but otherwise accomplishing not a doggone thing.

Every grandmother who’s groped, every survivor of cancer who’s humiliated, every employee who loses his job when he refuses to fly: Blame not only the TSA but its godfather, enabler, and King of the Hypocrites, John Mica.

I would consider putting one in my home lol

What comes around, goes around. :P

Early in the TSA era, before the put on the jackboots and added the hobnails, the guy ahead of me in the security line was actually the fellow who was testing their vigilance. He had a pistol wedged into the side of his suitcase such that the X-ray got a top/bottom view of it. Needless to say they missed it.

I got to stand there for a couple minutes while they talked it over. Positioned as it was, that particular model looked like like a bracelet or watchband. (Unfortunately I wasn't able to discretely identify the model of pistol in question. B-b )

My wife and I stopped flying soon after. Took two cross-country trips since: First one we took Amtrack. Second one we towed a travel trailer.

have exceeded our expectations, congressman.

but it won't stop the TSA from continuing its abuses against flyers. Next they'll be having them take their socks off along with their shoes.

is an embarrassment on an international scale. I feel like foreigners want to come here for less tourism because of the level of harassment they suffered. I realize airports aren't public spaces but I refuse to fly under these conditions as should anyone with a rational mind.
