Los Angeles, CA —I’ve never been fond of the FAA or the TSA because of the inept and horrifically wasteful way they deal with airline security. The searching of passengers without probable cause or a search warrant is a direct violation of the Fourth Amendment to our Constitution. The system they put in place is un-American but accepted by the sheep, but that does not make it right. The TSA was nothing more than a jobs program that was established through the exploitation of fear in America. The TSA has been ineffective, intrusive, rude, unnecessary, expensive and illegal. That being said today I wanted to capture some footage of the TSA in action for this blog and did so without incident. After I got the video I wanted, I left the terminal and saw LAX police making a routine arrest. I started taping and then a large Black woman wearing a TSA worker’s uniform began to order me around and when I rebuffed her commands she began shoving me with her hands and aggressively pursuing me. ...

Chicago, IL —This would not be an issue but for the miserable and unconstitutional gun laws of Illinois. Carrying a gun while not authorized by law in Illinois is a felony. The law-abiding folks can’t carry because they risk everything important like their job, reputation and citizenship. Dangerous felons on the other hand have nothing to lose. We ask our cops to go out and investigate crimes and arrest the offenders. That is indeed risky business. However the risk does not end with the arrest. Sometimes the cop is the only witness that can prove a crime and if he or she is murdered that old case evaporates and the offender must go free. Sometimes a cop is recognized on a public street and swift retaliation for making the arrest happens. These ugly things can result months and even years after an arrest. When an officer is off on disability either temporary or permanent the right to carry a concealed weapon ends. Perhaps the officer has an injured leg or back and running or even w...

Yep! TSA goons that can’t follow up leads to stop real pantybombers have no difficulty going after bloggers like me that are critical of their unworkable mess. The TSA losers hate to deal with informed passengers that can refuse to get pushed around because they know the rules. Subpoenas have been issued and served seeking to learn who leaked the following: U.S. DEPARTMENT OF HOMELAND SECURITY Transportation Security Administration Aviation Security Directive Subject: Security Directive Number: SD 1544-09-06 Date: December 25, 2009 EXPIRATION: 0200Z on December 30, 2009 This Security Directive (SD) must be implemented immediately.

TSA has identified security measures to be implemented by airports, aircraft operators, and foreign air carriers to mitigate potentia...

Washington, D.C .—With the current discussion of those horrifically expensive and intrusive full body scanners for airline travelers Fox News is doing a survey. The results so far indicate airlines will lose much more business yet. Can our mortally wounded economy take yet another massive hit? Would you be willing to undergo an airport "full body scan"? Yes 71% 146252 No 29% 60717 Total votes: 206969 You need to examine this 2008 report about Americans and their response to the TSA and their security screening: According to the Travel Industry Association , 41 million airplane trips were avoided last year by fellow Americans. That in turn dealt a $67 Billion cumulative cost to our economy. A landmark survey revealed shocking information that points directly at the TSA and the misery they pile on to travelers with mindless security screening games and indignities that do nothing more that provide an illusion of security. Flying today is a truly miserable experience. Air...

Imagine that you’ve been given an assignment. Bring 1 ½ pounds of simulated C-4 plastic explosive, blasting cap and a battery onto an Airplane. You will be rewarded by the government with $10,000.00 every time you can do this without getting caught. For those who don’t know C-4 pictured above is merely a chemical compound that could be manufactured by anyone with a basic knowledge of chemistry. It you’re smart enough to make the illicit street drug meth, you’re also smart enough to make C-4 explosive. I’d like that job because I know I could successfully pull that feat off once or twice per day, always avoiding detection. I’d also want to make sure that the materials are inert so there’s no danger should the materials somehow fall into the wrong hands. If a reasonably smart person researched this they too could easily defeat the TSA and commit mass murder in the process. We are in fact at the mercy of those who would do us harm. If someone wanted to place the C-4 on an airplane wit...
