The always great Reason Magazine has outdone themselves with this video and article.

It’s classy, well reasoned (ahem) stuff from a great organization.

REMOVE YOUR SHOES WITH PRIDE!


Are you deeply passive aggressive? How about slipping on a pair of Fourth Amendment Socks in preparation for the next time your friendly TSA Agent “asks” you to remove your shoes?

Imagine the blank look of confusion as he/she tries to parse why you have writing on your socks. Imagine the look of dread as he/she realizes that he/she must read the entire paragraph to make sure that it doesn’t say anything that might peg you as a terrorist!

Or…

Imagine how they might not even notice the socks.

But at least your feet are cozy!

This is the kind of spontaneous publicity I need to get ahead!

He has modestly removed the six zeroes from the total views. Not only does he say very nice things about me and acts like he has ever seen Hollywood Palms, but he pimps the Bill of Rights – Security Edition.

Stop the TSA – Petition

Of course, there’s one presidential candidate who wants to dismantle the TSA. He also wants to stop the United States campaign of worldwide destruction, but I’ve been told that a vote for him is childish. Idealism is so 2008 and shouldn’t be applied to actual issues.

I’m not convinced that, unless one is Betty White, an online petition does anyone any good except for feeling like they’ve done something. Which is kinda/sorta the reality of the Bill of Rights – Security Edition. It feels like you’re making a statement, but you’re only preaching to your very own choir of one.

Those childish and unrealistic folks over at Campaign for Liberty have begun a petition to support a bill to END THE TSA.

Freedom is a sweet thing which I hope doesn’t change.

That is my horrible headline for this horrible event.

Wilco Tango Foxtrot is happening, people?

On Friday, at the request of the TSA, I was removed from the witness list. The excuse was that I am involved in a lawsuit against the TSA, trying to get them to suspend their full-body scanner program. But it’s pretty clear that the TSA is afraid of public testimony on the topic, and especially of being challenged in front of Congress. They want to control the story, and it’s easier for them to do that if I’m not sitting next to them pointing out all the holes in their position. Unfortunately, the committee went along with them.

The title of the hearing: TSA Oversight Part III: Effective Security or Security Theater?

TSA Agent arrested for stealing from passenger

Posted by deancameron on February 7, 2012 under Freedom Fighters, Good News, Libertarian, The TSA, Unreasonable Search?, You're kidding me! | Be the First to Comment

I had two laptops stolen by the TSA years ago. Baggage handlers and TSA agents in NYC and Florida were working together. The rotten TSA agents (redundant?) would identify the bags on their way to Florida with the “good” stuff and the baggage handlers in Florida would then open the bags and get the loot.

That was, at least, somewhat clever.

A TSA thug at the Newark airport, Alexandra Schmid, just swiped $5,000 cash from a passenger like a little kid stealing candy. The silver lining in this is that in addition to putting the agent, Alexandra Schmid (no relation to John Jacob Jingleheimer) the feds are now launching an investigation and have suspended eight workers for misconduct. Their deeds? Sleeping on the job, stealing and failure to properly screen baggage.

The money is still missing.
