Expanding TSA Searches

[Bunnykid68]

They can go pound sand, all of em.

I've got no problem with them policing the buses. I'd feel safer. But it sounds damn expensive. Bus prices will go up by 400% to pay for one agent per 30 or so passengers.

 

[jdhaines]

Exactly.
Two words: Probably Cause.

Freudian Slip?

There was a time when folks were outraged by the Hitler Brown Shirts requesting papers wherever they would go.

Now, instead of just asking for papers, they've become even more invasive.

Oh... and they changed uniform colors too!

Never forget! The man in blue is a friend to you!

I am more concerned about the 9000 CHECK POINTS.

Sooner or later we are going to need to be frisked and full body cavity search before you get into a cab..

Coming to a gated community near you.

 

[J_Wales]

I suspect most gated communities would have no problem with this... after all, what's a little liberty for a perception of safety?

We get what we tolerate.

This is pure 100%, fact.

The thing I am curious too see is how far the sheeple will let it go. I have no doubt the violators of liberty will only increase the rate of violation (they have been encroaching at an astonishingly fast rate lately) and within my lifetime, I would think I would see the straw that turns the tide and makes the sheeple do like (forgive me) Keanu Reeves in the matrix and all of them hold up their hand and just say "stop"

It may never happen. They start training (brainwashing) the youth at a young age. Training them to comply with and never question authority. I see how easily my generation has folded so far, and watching the up bringing of kids today gives me little hope that they will resist tyranny on any level.

The red pill folks have never been great in numbers.

Ultimately, Truth prevails.

This is my fear...the Left has a near monopoly on the education system (IMO one of the reasons there is such an attack on home schooling). People who know and love liberty seem to be fewer and fewer.

We simply must teach out children about liberty and that these intrusions are wrong and should not be tolerated.

Your right. I just hope the truth is that people do not really want to live under a master, with no feedom, choice or responsibility.

Like baby birds waiting for their masters to come and feed them some scraps, and tell them what to do. But never wanting to leave the nest and fly on their own.

 

[J_Wales]

Most are happy to live under a master who promises to protect them.

Well said. Schools are beginning to move to a national curriculum, starting to only offer full day kindergarten, and Obama wants kids in school till they are 18. Our liberties will always be only 1 generation from becoming extinct....and 'they' know this. Lots of small changes over time equals a big change.

Pathetic and disgusting beyond description by the English language, but true.

From cigarette smoke, terrorists, 'unacceptable' people having guns, lack of healthcare (even if people don't want it), diseases (through potentially harmful vaccinations), marijuana/hemp, having too much wealth, having too little wealth, the pain of being out of work, the need to find work, et al.

Who will protect us from our protectors?

Congress?....oh wait...

The President?....oh wait...

Supreme Court?...looking back on congress? Lugar? nevermind.

I'm waiting for a modern day Battle of Athens. Thank god for police like Sherriff Rogers in Elkhart County actually protecting citizens and follows the constitution...
