SSCC #61–TSA
Submitted by Barron Barnett on Tue, 09/06/2011 - 18:25Seriously read the whole story, it’s sad, it’s depressing, and quite frankly it’s also enraging. But it gets even worse when you see the following:
The TSA agent — one Thedala Magee — has demanded that Amy pay her $500,000 for Magdee’s distress at being called out.
This could have been your wife, your sister, your mother, or your daughter. Truthfully the only reason this woman got away with it is because it remained in the shadows. It is now quite ironic that it is the agent herself, feeling invulnerable because of her position is now drawing more light to it. There can be no doubt that the TSA will back the effort to help aid in intimidating people into being sheep.
The TSA hires criminals, perverts, and sexual predators. What did they really expect was going to happen? It’s not as if they’re hiring the best and brightest.
State Sponsored Criminal Count: 61 Thedala Magee
Because raping someone when you’re on the clock and a TSA agent is an acceptable practice when used to intimidate other passengers into compliance.

Why do we need the TSA again?
Submitted by Barron Barnett on Mon, 02/21/2011 - 20:29So the TSA today actually harassed a US Representative from Alaska to the point she’s returning home by boat instead of by plane.
While our congress critters should be put through this same mess that the rest of us are. However one should always be sure to never bite the hand that feeds you. Most likely though our all knowing leaders will just exempt themselves from this hassle while they ensure their serfs constituents are continually abused. It just another example how every incident involving TSA starts with “The Stupid Asshole”.

Here comes a new “necessity”
Submitted by Barron Barnett on Thu, 02/17/2011 - 23:44Evidently the FBI is 100% sure there is going to be an attack on US Soil involving a “Weapon of Mass Destruction.”
The question is, what are they going to use their new “necessity” for? Not to mention the fact that the government has claimed numerous non-existent dangers before.

Quote of the Day–Joe Huffman (01/30/2011)
Submitted by Barron Barnett on Sun, 01/30/2011 - 20:45“The same sort of thing happened to the Jews in Nazi Germany. Each little infringement it was always just a little bit easier to do what they wanted rather than what they should have done. It is easier to comply and get through this, this indignity, this infringement, this beating, whatever it was, than to face the consequences of taking the big step.“ –Joe Huffman on BB & Guns.
[This was said while discussing the TSA and their behavior towards law abiding citizens.
Joe is right, the problem is most people can not take the risk to fight back. It is easier to just walk through the line, than to fight back. When you fight back, you will probably win in the end, but it also will cost you time, money, and possibly even your job. People comply with the TSA out of fear, and that is terrorism. The terrorists from overseas have been replaced by people from the government using the claim of necessity. Now that government is doing all it can to make sure it has a monopoly over airport screenings to continue their reign of terror. Remember, it will only get worse, and we have seen these tiny encroachments in history before. -B]

TSA in a graphical display
Submitted by Barron Barnett on Fri, 01/21/2011 - 19:13Someone emailed me a graphic recently on the TSA and Airline terror. Graphics are a great way of correlating data and finding patterns.
I wish the graphic included data back through the 1980s and 70s with the string of terrorist events that occurred then. With only one data point shown prior to the September 11th attacks it’s hard to compare reactions by the public to before and after the TSA appeared.
What can be seen is there is considerably more traffic than before. Terrorism hasn’t stopped people from flying. Though the TSA has caused many to stop flying, while it may not be very noticeable, I find more have stopped because of TSA than because of the fear of terrorism. One could glance at the graphic below and say TSA is working, but that’s not really looking at all the information contained there in. As Mark Twain said, “There’s lies, damned lies, and statistics”.

Patriot Act Up for Renewal
Submitted by Barron Barnett on Sat, 01/15/2011 - 19:24The Patriot Act should have never been created to begin with.
It was made while we were all still very emotional, many of us, including myself though have hated it from the start. It appears that the congress is going to be adding another year onto the Patriot Act.
Remember who the DHS considers terrorists. Time to write your congress critters. This renewal needs to be at least debated, preferably fully derailed.
