That’s right, the TSA is at it again for the holiday rush with their high-jinx and tom foolery. But remember they’re here for your protection, safety, security, and the occasional molestation and sexual battery of a helpless 85 year old woman OR detaining a pregnant teen because she has a gun…wait for it… design on her purse.
In both cases each person missed their flight and the elderly woman was injured.
Lenore Zimmerman said she was taken to a private room and made to take off her pants and other clothes after she asked to forgo the screening because she worried it would interfere with her defibrillator. She missed her flight and had to take one 2 1/2 hours later, she said.
So now they’re strip searching because she’s an obvious threat. If it’s in policy they’re not admitting it. Either way, it isn’t recorded. God forbid we saw granny’s Constitutional Rights being subverted and have video documentation of it. Very convenient that there are security cameras everywhere EXCEPT in the Private Screening Room, where she was detained for 11 minutes.
As a result, she said, she was taken into the private screening room by one agent and made to strip.
A review of closed-circuit television at the airport showed proper procedures were followed [outside of the private screening room where the rapists know there are cameras], Jonathan Allen, a TSA spokesman, said in a statement.
“Private screening was requested by the passenger, it was granted and lasted approximately 11 minutes,” the statement read. “TSA screening procedures are conducted in a manner designed to treat all passengers with dignity, respect and courtesy and that occurred in this instance.”
The private screening was not recorded.
To which the TSA can only release a statement that says:
“While we regret that the passenger feels she had an unpleasant screening experience, TSA does not include strip searches as part of our security protocols and one was not conducted in this case,” the statement read.
And you know a strip search was not conducted how? Because another TSA Brown Shirt “told” you it didn’t happen. Since you guys don’t even qualify as security guards, I’m certain you are well-trained at conducting internal investigations. I am absolutely convinced that you won’t conduct a biased investigation. If you haven’t guessed, you should be drowning in my sarcasm riiiiiiiiiiiight…….abooooouuuuut………NOW!
The pregnant teen hears this:
“She was like, ‘This is a federal offense because it’s in the shape of a gun,’” Gibbs said. “I’m like, ‘But it’s a design on a purse. How is it a federal offense?’”
Having an object that is shaped like a gun, or in this case… the left half of a gun, and a whole 4 inches long, is in NO WAY a federal offense. So now we’re letting people on the “I think I am a top cop”, barely graduated high school, have never heard of common sence, jack booted, brown shirted, Hitler youth determine what the law is and how to enforce it?
After TSA agents figured out the gun was a fake, Gibbs said, they told her to check the bag or turn it over. By the time security wrapped up the inspection, the pregnant teen missed her flight, and Southwest Airlines sent her to Orlando instead. The changed itinerary created no small amount of anxiety for Gibbs’ mother, who was already waiting for her to arrive at the Jacksonville airport.
So now you must comply because they don’t like the way something “looks” because we all know a purse can just scare the crap out of anyone and this one might even jump up on its own and shoot someone in the ass with a rhinestone or something.
Constitutional Violations that apply to the above victims include (but are not limited to):
1st Amendment: The teen’s freedom of expression in a peaceable manner was subverted.
2nd Amendment: Only terrorists don’t get caught with weapons and through subversion we are left unable to reasonably defend our right to life.
4th Amendment: There is no probable cause to justify a search or seizure of either of these ladies, not to mention 98% of the other people who get groped for no reason.
Let’s not forget the other criminal offenses that apply to these not-so-random searches, violations, and subversions.
From now on, IF I have no choice but to go to an airport and fly somewhere, I’m eating Chilli with Tobasco Sauce, Jalapeno Chips, and drinking it with a lot of coffee. Then I’ll eat a whole pack of Chicklets from an MRE!
Next person come through please…. (neener, neener, neener).
Disavowed With Honor
Americans should not put up with this TSA garbage! Aside from being totally un-Constitutional, it’s also totally unnecessary and totally worthless! This security theater does absolutely nothing to keep you safe and is only meant to condition you to obey ANY asinine orders from so-called “authority” figures. Stop letting yourselves be treated like criminals/”terrorists”/children/slaves!

The other curious question here is this…
Why is it that all of these “newsworthy searches” always seem to be women? Are we beginning to see a pattern? I wonder how many cross references we could find between TSA applicants and Sexual Assault offenders?
