TSA Too Busy Groping, Perving, Playing God To Notice Guns And Bombs

We must be able to agree at least on one thing. Their goal is not to protect us. Their goal is to control us.

From Prison Planet.


TSA agents at a Houston airport failed to stop an Iranian-American with a loaded handgun passing through security and boarding a plane, yet they did stop a woman directly behind him who was carrying liquids in her hand luggage.

Greenfield was joined by Council Members Gale Brewer, Fernando Cabrera, Debi Rose, Robert Jackson, Jumaane Williams, and Brad Lander in support of legislation that would ban the use of full body scanners in New York City, including New York’s two airports – JFK International Airport and LaGuardia Airport. The Council Members were also joined by privacy expert Marc Rotenberg, a professor of law at Georgetown University and President of the Electronic Privacy Information Center (EPIC), who is leading a lawsuit to suspend the deployment of body scanners at US airports, pending an independent review.

Ron Paul Unleashes On TSA: “Enough Is Enough”

From Prison Planet.

In perhaps his most impassioned and irate speech to date, Congressman Ron Paul unleashed a tirade of vilification at the TSA and their security procedures that have stoked nationwide outrage, stating “enough is enough” as he introduced new legislation that would open the way for TSA employees to be sued for groping Americans or putting them through dangerous naked body scanners, preventing travelers ‘from being treated like cattle’...

Investigate Michael Chertoff for fraud and corruption

From Brasschecktv.com


Chertoff ordered the full-body scanners
when he was Homeland Security head
Now he profits from them





Rep John Duncan, Tennessee stands up
against government corruption



Michael Chertoff supervised the "relief efforts" in New Orleans after the levee failures.

He managed the investigation of 9/11.

Now he's helping railroad the full-body X-ray machines he ordered BEFORE the so-called "underwear bomber" incident into US airports - and getting paid for it.

He needs to see the inside of a courtroom and, if there is justice, a jail cell too.

Who is responsible for this travesty?

1. Michael Chertoff for reasons stated above
2. John Pistole - Head of the TSA
3. Janet Napolitano - Head of Homeland Security
4. Barack Obama (ak Barry Soetoro) - Napolitano's boss
5. Every US Congressperson who has not personally gone on record to defend Americans and other US travels from these assaults

Hats off to Representative Duncan for being a lone voice speaking on behalf of travelers, civil rights, and basic sanity.

Airport security is big business, and Rapiscan Systems benefits

Airport security is serious business and, increasingly, it is also big business; TSA plans to deploy as many as 1,800 full-body scanner at U.S. airports by the end of 2014; at $170,000 a scanner, this is a $300 million proposition...

...A group of researchers from the University of California San Francisco warned that X-rays from the Rapiscan devices in particular might pose a danger because radiation energy, though a low dose, is focused on the skin.

“There is good reason to believe that these scanners will increase the risk of cancer to children and other vulnerable populations,” the researchers wrote. “We are unanimous in believing that the potential health consequences need to be rigorously studied before these scanners are adopted.”...
