    I suppose I'm probably not eligible to comment on this thread as my experience with those TSA goons is extremely limited.

    I flew to Ontario. Calif. a couple of years ago from our tiny Podunk airport to see my grandson graduate. On this end, I put my flip-flops and purse in a tub and it went through the scanner thingy, no problems, no big deal.

    When I left from Ontario to come home, I had requested a wheel chair as my hiking long walks in airports ability ain't great. It worked perfectly and I was greeted at the first check-in counter by a nice guy and the chair. When we got to the Big Time check through place, I had to get out of the chair so that they could up-end the chair and check out the bottom of it (for bombs, or whatever, I guess).

    I don't know to whom the chair belonged, the airline or the airport, but it was totally supervised by them and their "driver" before I ever sat down in it.

    I thought this might have been kinda sorta ridiculous. Just when, with their guy driving me, might I have added explosives or weapons or whatever to the bottom of it? Well, at least they didn't feel me up. I'm still wondering if this old woman missed a treat?

    That's just pure disgusting!! If people would quit flying for say, a week, the airlines themselves would put pressure on the government to stop this insanity. This kind of violation of personal dignity and privacy goes beyond obscene!!

    TSA deliberately recruiting, hiring sociopaths and pedophiles, says whistleblower
    by J. D. Heyes

    (NaturalNews) While the Central Intelligence Agency has a history of paying off petty tyrants and thugs in its quest to keep America safe, no regular federal agency would purposely seek out and hire the dregs of society. Right?

    Wrong.

    Enter the illustrious Transportation Security Administration. Are you surprised?

    According to "Rob," a TSA supervisor-turned-whistleblower, in an interview with the Alex Jones Show, the agency's brass is directing staff to hire degenerates - people with criminal records who have exhibited violent tendencies and psychopathic behavior.

    How do you like air travel now?

    During the interview, Rob talked about his job, which entailed filing reports on TSA screeners who did not follow agency procedures. He said he was alarmed by the fact that the agency was hiring a number of criminals who he said exhibited the behavior of "psychopaths."

    "We have a program in the state of Rhode Island where we take prisoners who are out for non-violent drug offenses and everything else - basically sociopaths - and we're sending them to a ten-day course and getting them in uniform checking out people," the whistleblower said.

    He noted that people who presented themselves very professionally were often passed over in favor of applicants who had spent time in jail and who had megalomaniacal, power-trip tendencies.

    The aberrancy is getting noticed

    "If they have a background and it's something like violence or abusing authority we put them right in, we put them guys on the floor first day," said Rob, who also said he was encouraged to hire veterans from the Iraq war who had been diagnosed with post-traumatic stress disorder.

    "It's all about the power trip, it's all about having people bug their eyes out at the public and getting the public conditioned to the fact that the police state is coming," Rob said, adding that TSA screeners were instructed to stick out their chests in arrogance and "eyeball people."

    The TSA's bizarre behavior, as well as the agency's lower-than-low hiring standards, is getting noticed by more and more people. Fortunately for all Americans, an increasing number of those are people who can do something about it (let's hope they do).

    Take a recent report about the TSA by U.S. Rep. Marsha Blackburn, R-Tenn. In it she highlighted the fact that TSA agents engage in criminal behavior so often it's almost routine. She says that's no aberrancy, it's because of "TSA's hiring practices and insufficient use of background checks."

    "This report details highly disturbing cases where pedophiles and child pornographers wearing federal law enforcement uniforms are not only patting down unsuspecting travelers, but in many cases stealing valuables from their bags," she told a local news station in early June. "Enough is enough. It's time for Congress to step in and demand accountability from Administrator [John] Pistole."

    But what should Americans expect?

    Criminal risk-based organization?

    The TSA's recruitment policy does not reflect its own mantra, which is that it was created as an "intelligent risk-based organization." The agency doesn't conduct criminal and background checks on many of its employees, Blackburn's report noted, and that it trolls for employees by advertising "for employment at the Washington Reagan National Airport on pizza boxes and on advertisements above pumps at discount gas stations in the D.C. area."

    Rob also told Alex Jones that TSA screeners were being ordered by supervisors to check bags of people who were only coming to the airport to pick up a traveler. He said he was once directed to search a diaper bag that belonged to a woman who had only come to the airport to pick up her husband.

    A little much?

    "We're doing patrols in the parking lot with dogs, we're even going as far out to the train station because the train station is connected to the airport here and we have guys walking around the train station, walking around the rental cars, we're inspecting cars coming into the parking garage, I mean we've fully expanded - we're no longer just at the gate and just at the security checkpoint," he said, adding that supervisors were firing agents who refused to grope travelers in certain areas.

    Rob, the report noted, was contacted by his bosses shortly after the interview and reprimanded, by the way.

    New TSA Policy: Ordering Travelers To “Freeze” On Command?



    If you thought the bizarre power trip behavior of the TSA couldn't get any crazier -- think again. According to a friend of political commentator Lew Rockwell, the federal agency is now ordering travelers passing through security to "freeze" on command.

    Explaining how he had arranged with his family to split up as they were passing through airport security, the correspondent, whose story is posted at LewRockwell.com, explains how he heard a commotion from a different security lane.

    We heard a "freeze, freeze" or something like this coming from the output side of (false) security (where my wife was), followed by further barking of commands. From where I was, I couldn't see much."

    "It turns out they were doing a new drill. They want all passengers to freeze on command. My wife told me later that she didn't follow this order fast enough, so the subsequent barks I heard were directed at her."

    TSA supervisors expressed little other than disinterest when the man's wife complained at being ordered around in such an overbearing manner.

    "I think back to when I was a child, playing and wrestling in the back of the station wagon on long trips -- no seatbelts or child seats. Now we get yelled at in the airport. I don't feel safer," the post concludes.

    If accurate, the new policy represents yet another pointless exercise of power that seems designed to achieve little else than harassing travelers and treating them like prisoners by aggressively demanding immediate subservience.

    As we reported yesterday, the TSA is now demanding the right to test drinks purchased by passengers after they have already passed through airport security. The new policy serves only to further inconvenience travelers who have already gone through humiliating grope downs and body scanners.

    The world coming up is not one I want to be a part of. To those born into it, they will know no difference. But perhaps their souls will tell them that there is a better way, and off in the future, perhaps they will rise up and rebel. Maybe so, and maybe not. After all, I have to wonder why people right now continue to sit by in almost abject silence while 'government' has taken away every freedom we have had, until we are no more than cattle in a feed lot.

    I read a book about aliens that attach themselves to other creatures to control them. It became illegal for anyone to walk around, in public, clothed, hiding even a hand in a bag. Anyone controlled by an alien was to be either shot on sight, or otherwise stopped from doing nasty alien things. Ha! Everybody had to be nude, period, even the soldiers with guns!

    Anyway, why have naked body scanners and gropers? Wouldn't it just be easier to outlaw clothes at the airport? LOL Nude airlines, or no airlines, hahah! Gee I wonder how many people would still fly? I'd rather not be groped and scanned by those radiation emitting machines when I could just strip off my clothes and stroll right on through. Look, see, no place for a bomb, knife, or gun, I'm just plain old big fat ME, nothing else. Hahaha!

    Of course, I'd have a towel to sit on. A nice, big, warm, and comfy blanket to cover up with too when it's too cold. But I can put those through the baggage scanner, no big deal. Oh, and I would love to have a Chromebook to take with me. Other than that, no luggage. Oh, and I have to have my cane too. That would be inspected by hand I guess. Make sure it's not a weird cane-gun, or something.

    How many terrorists have been caught by the TSA clowns anyway? One? Three? A thousand? If any have been caught at all, it's all been a total secret from me. I've heard not one peep about anybody actually being caught.

    Hmm, are they really going to start doing this stuff at train stations, bus stops, etc.? If so, maybe we should all just always be nude, unless it's really cold. I don't understand why some people jump into snow, or icy cold water, nude or partially clothed, that's CRAZY! Brrrr, way too cold! I feel too cold at around 50 degrees Fahrenheit.
