This “submit or arrest” thing is an unbelievable abuse of power. What about “submit or leave the premises”? I have been in courthouses and have witnessed entrants told quite simply that if they wish to enter they have to pass through a metal detector. If they don’t wish to pass through it, they turn around and leave. I’ve seen that happen.
The “submit or arrest” thing is like a fly into a spider’s web. As soon as you enter the building, your freedoms, liberties and dignity are forfeit? You cannot gather your belongings and decide NOT to proceed? Appalling!
Yes, this is the most appalling about this debacle. Everyone read Lost’s post.
Apparently (and this happened to this guy and the guy in San Diego), once you decide you do not want this government rape, you have lost your right to leave. The TSA (and airport police??) FORCE you to submit to the rape anyway.
WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED TO OUR RIGHTS AS FREE CITIZENS???
They now assume that if an American decides NOT to submit to the sexual assault, and wishes to leave the airport, that this is a threat to them??
This has gone FAR too far.
