We have some dear friends who are Traditional Catholics. Like many conservative Christians, this means the women dress modestly and in skirts. Their 15-year-old daughter, GG, is attending a boarding school in our region, and since she's so far from home, we're blessed to have her with us this Thanksgiving weekend.
But her parents are worried about GG's Christmas break. "What with the whole nude body scanner/groping issue at the airport, I'm fretting about having her fly home," wrote her mother.
Let's face it, the (cough) "security" measures being implement by the TSA right now are daunting enough for an adult, but for a modest teen girl flying alone, they're terrifying. "I won't let them touch me," GG told me, panic in her voice. The thought of strangers running their hands over her intimate parts is completely antithetical to both her religious and her personal convictions.
And for that bit of unacceptable defiance, our young friend can be labeled a "domestic extremist."
According to an article by Doug Hagmann at the Canada Free Press, an internal memo with the DHS "officially addresses those who are opposed to, or engaged in the disruption of the implementation of the enhanced airport screening procedures as 'domestic extremists.'"
There's a groundswell of hatred and loathing across Real America directed at the DHS and its minions, because all of us every last man, woman and child are assumed to be "domestic extremists" unless proven otherwise. And we apparently must prove otherwise by passively allowing a pair of disease-ridden blue gloves to fondle our private parts.
That's not America. That's Germany circa 1933. The TSA agents should be wearing brown shirts, not blue.

TSA now gives perverts and convicted sex offenders a career path that they will genuinely enjoy and enthusiastically carry out for every moment of their work day. Sadly, I suspect those are the only people who would be willing to take a job in what TSA has become, so it’s only going to get worse.
I believe this may destroy the airline industry as people will drive instead of fly.
Other than going cross country or flying out of country.
Maybe that’s the plan?
Another part of the economy destroyed?
This is sickening and scary.
And yet we continue to leave our southern border open to actual threats. I heard that Obama is pulling the National Guard out of Texas early next year. Maybe they should send all the TSA agents down there.
Our women and children are molested in the cause of “security,” but we can’t even ask a suspected illegal alien for their papers!
I wonder how much of the Obama Regime is a plan and how much is a general tendency toward evil. In any case, we need to do more than just replace this thug with a RINO, we need a real American who will repeal every unconstitutional action the usurper has taken. TSA should get back within the appropriate limits of searching (which means staying out of my little daughter’s underwear). ObamaCare needs to be completely repealed and then the good parts, if any, passed as individual bills. Our military needs to be in the business of providing for the common defense and not social change or local job creation. And most important, our Supreme Court should be in the business of interpreting the Constitution of the United States, which is a written document stored at the National Archives and not a “living” document that says what might have been written if Obama and Pelosi had been in charge in 1983.
I know of people who are driving coast-to-coast, and other people who are taking ships from the East Coast to Europe.
I have added D.E. to my list of tagline titles. I have taken the title of Domestic Extremist with pride. It feels really good to be a Domestic Extremist.

Brilliant clarity, Bravo CitizenUSA
Both ... the powers behind this regime are purposely pushing us until we revolt. Then they will slam us and turn this once great republic into a police state that will rival 1939 Germany. That at least is their plan.

I tend to agree with clamper1797 — paranoid as it sounds, this has the earmarks of a dark and sinister plot. What if this ISN’T just incompetence and tone-deafness by Obambi and his band of no-goods?
They are pushing us, hard. They leave the border open but abuse our privacy at the airport. They tax us to death then will watch as taxes mushroom at the start of the new year. They ignore the wishes of 70 percent of citizens and pass unpopular legislation anyway. And what few good laws there might be are changed by activist judges, any way they see fit.
The list goes on ... piss off our allies and bow to our enemies. Water down our currency and deny that there is any inflation. “Food safety” legislation that will make your backyard garden illegal. Take over banks, manufacturers, student loans and health care. Give the unions everything. What the hell is going on here?
It’s almost as if they’re shoving us in the hopes that we shove back. I mean, King George III wasn’t this nasty to the colonists! But if we do shove back, all hell is gonna break loose.
Any such uprising by citizens would be tagged as “domestic terrorism perpetrated by armed extremists and militias” and that would give Obambi an excuse to declare a national emergency. Welcome to Germany in the 1930s.
I know how paranoid all of this sounds, but I can’t for the life of me explain away the actions of our government. Where is this madness leading?
“But if we do shove back, all hell is gonna break loose...”
I believe with all my heart and mind that it is not “if” we push back, but “when.” The detention centers described in Obamacare are a reality (sold as a place to put people during a “state of emergency” like Katrina. Did you know that we were put under a National State of Emergency last October and it went on until June? This was supposedly due to the devastation the Feds were expecting from the Swine Flu — I wouldn’t have even noticed if I didn’t work for a hospital.
This is all about breaking the spirit of those who are willing to fight for the country. Bush 2 left the border wide open and didn’t try to hide that he had no interest in securing it. The Globalist/New World Order types have been stepping it up since Bush 1. What these dingbats are pushing for won’t work, never has, never will. That’s why they need the barbed wire around those detention centers. This is not going to be good on any level.
