Travelers who attempt to make a joke about strict security procedures at airports have been warned they face arrest.

A loudspeaker announcement made by the Transport Security Administration warns the public: 'Any inappropriate remarks or jokes concerning security may result in your arrest.'

Concerned passenger Matt Miller recorded the loudspeaker message while passing through George Bush Intercontinental Airport in Houston, Texas.

It’s long been known that it isn’t wise to greet your friend, Jack at the airport by loudly exclaiming, “Hi, Jack!”

Savage has mentioned a few times in the last few years on his show, that the entire civilian US population is, by and large, living in a state of seige. Few will admit it, but virtually everyone is looking over their shoulder. No one wants to “stick out” above the crowd. There is a amorphous cloud of fear that each one of us is just one j’accuse away from being branded an enemy of the state. So while we’re supposedly fighting towelheads on the other side of the planet, but the US itself is like a prison on perpetual lockdown.

Q. Why does TSA airport security look so well staffed?

A. All the jobs for taxi drivers were filled.

Can hardly wait to try that one out.

So, playing "The Horst Wessel Song" or "Deutschland Über Alles" played from my kindle fire while waiting in the security line would get me in trouble? what if i replied to a request to open my bag with "jawohl, herr Obergruppenfuhrer!"

If he speaks German, the Blue Shirt will reply, "Wunderbar! Du bist ein gehorsamer Sklave! (Wonderful! You are an obedient slave.)

And y'all that this was just hyperbole, dincha ?


             


Don't like the trash on tv ?    Don't subscribe to cable.

Don't like Nazis at the airport ?    Don't go to the airport.

Bbbbbut some of us 'have' to fly for work !
And if the airlines' survival depended on those few, both the TSA Nazis and the Vichy airlines would come to a screeching halt.

Use air travel for discretionary trips and you're part of the problem.

Period

Haven't been in the Constitution-free zones known as airports in ten years.

Anybody who patronizes airports deserves the totalitarian state that is coming.

A week of nobody flying in protest would shake the feral government bullies to their core.

Violation of our rights. You can’t be arrested for saying anything!

Want to disrupt air travel? Go to some airports and hand out flyers pointing out how Muslim terrorists could eradicate TSA checkpoints and be just as effective as last go around. See how long you last.

Well, to be sure Old Scratch does not like anything that endangers his subjects before they can carry out all the mischief he wants... could be a demonic kick back. Still it needs to be put in context. God never vacated his throne, and God is still bigger than Satan. And if you’ve let God snatch you out of Satan’s hand (more familiarly known as salvation as described in the Christian faith) you can duke it out successfully with said devil, getting in better spiritual condition as you do so.

Bottom line: get right with the Lord and get ready for huge success. Or don’t, and ultimately fail.

It just seems to me such a pity that we let evil run as rampant as it does, in such a nominally Christian country. The devil is the power of evil, and his game is telling whopping lies about how great he is and trying to con folks, when all he can really do is say no to God. Christ solved the problem. Putting your hand in His hand, accepting salvation, ceasing to say no to God, means you now have a vantage point to beat the evil.

Anything less and we might as well be rearranging chairs on the Titanic. Boycott airports... I fume about that. God gave us the blessing of flight and we let a two bit devil cheat us out of it?

The least they could do is periodically play Reveille from time to time to wake sleeping TSA agents. Going through DFW a couple of years I was floored seeing a sleeping TSA agent guarding some unused exit.

Would be tempting to walk up to one and do just that (I know, I know, only in our imagination, they’d take it with very ill humor).

Can we still photograph TSA workers who have fallen asleep by the x-ray machines?

Oh my gosh - I’ve seen sleeping TSAs at DFW (post #34) several times. The last guy was doing a head-bob thing sitting in a chair right at security. I took out my phone and started videoing him, but my pilot husband was not amused by either one of us.

I'll pass on the first paragraph, but as to the second :

Air travel, while a convenience, is rarely a necessity, tho we may want to rationalize it otherwise.

At root, it's a service for a fee, and like any other transaction, if the buyer finds the service unacceptable, the product is avoided and the fee withheld until the service/product improves or an acceptable alternative appears.

A massive refusal by the public to patronize air travel need only be a temporary strategy.

Hit the Quisling cowards in the airline boardrooms with a couple/few weeks of an 80% reduction in revenue and watch the fun as they run each other down in the rush to get DC to execute the TSA.

Two likely outcomes, both beneficial :

1) the unmistakable power of that kind of economic blockade, the message it would send as to what's actually what, would make the little whining halfbreed bitch in the Spite Hut MELT

2) an attempt would be made to nationalize (aka steal) the airline industry and force it to operate as a .gov entity (yes, at the point of a gun), at which point this nation's citizens could no longer harbor ANY illusion about the evil infesting DC

I had a relatively quick connecting flight so raising a stink wasn't in my best interests. I didn't have a camera so there was no ability for me to complain later...

I’d think if there were enough recognition by the public of the true battlefield layout of good vs. evil (properly, God vs. Satan)... there wouldn’t need to be a boycott because meretricious politicians would get cast out on their hineys forthwith, or else a literal come to Jesus.

Thanks for backing up my observation. BTW DFW is a major military flight hub..
