“Those who surrender freedom for security will not have, nor do they deserve, either one.” - Benjamin Franklin

The illegal searches and seizures performed by the TSA are clearly unconstitutional. The TSA needs to be disbanded and the responsibility for airport/airline safety returned to the airlines. The airlines should then implement security measures modeled after Israel’s (El-Al) methodologies. As a side note, I really believe that most of the TSA personnel are “on the lower half of the bell curve” and actually get a perverse sense of power and pleasure from abusing travelers.
It is not illegal because you are volunteering to the screening when you enter the TSA area. Their rebuttal, ‘don’t fly’.
