This keeps up and there will be open revolt against these agents. They’re acting just like officers of a totalitarian regime reputedly act. This isn’t the kind of country that puts up with stuff like that forever.
That picture reminds me of a time I flew out of Durango, CO which has a small airport.
An elderly man told the TSA agent in no uncertain terms
that he wasn’t a terrorist when they asked him to take off
his shoes. As many elderly people do, he raised his
voice: “I’m not a Rag Head and all I have down in my shoes
are corns. Go look for one of those Arabs”.
Everybody laughed and his granddaughter helped him take off
and put back on his shoes.
The poor old gentleman was not happy.

That TSA “thing” needs popped up side the head.
They really have a nasty demeanor.
The founding fathers would have grabbed their muskets and revolted.
Amazing. The TSA sure goes after the wrong people don’t they?
All together, let’s sing...........”look for - the union label”.....
When I was a youngster one of my friends Mothers had this little ditty she would sing when someone ticked her off.
“I have a list,
Oh Yes a little list,
And someday, yes someday...”
And believe me when you heard her singing that ditty, you just KNEW you didn’t want to be on her little list.
And people like this TSA agent are on a lot of “little Lists”.
Wonder if a jury would convict for punching a female TSA agent in the mouth?
If someday it should happen (I've got a little list)
Gilbert & Sullivan, The Mikado. The great John Reed as Ko-Ko.
The custom in live performance is to add topical allusions to "the list" - if you look around YouTube I'm sure somebody has tossed in a dig at TSA. Zombies and iPads have already been mentioned.
Yet, people continue to pay their money to the airline industry, which does nothing to stop crap like this.
I guess you gets what you pays for.
TSA agents enjoy the tremendous power they have over others. They can order people around, tell them to strip, feel them up, poke around their belongings, and give them orders under penalty of arrest and harassment.
NO HUMAN SHOULD HAVE THIS POWER OVER ANOTHER.
The government knows all this and does it anyway because it is training us to be sheep. This has nothing to do with 19 cleanly shaven bearded savages killing 3000 people.
My saying was that you got a ticket for the bus... and when the bus was full, it was driven off the cliff. A bus load of TSA agents has already gone over!
Let all your DC and State reps know that the TSA and it’s parent Homeland Security both must be defunded!!!
But people just continue to put up with it. Day in and day out. I now drive instead of flying.
Probably would not have made a difference with this idiot TSA agent.
You bet they’re on the list.
Neat story.
