RE: TSA screens people ARRIVING from an international flight.


This is so bizarre that I don’t even have words to describe it.

The man has already gone OFF the plane. He isn’t going ON a plane, and they’re still doing this ??

Our Homeland Security is really out of whack.

We refuse to protect our borders (where terrorists, drug gangs and dealers can come in from Mexico ), we then spend our resources suing states that want to protect their borders, and yet, here we are harassing people who are not even getting on a plane !!

We are sooo screwed...

They probably just wanted to take the kids name to put on the list of those that are rounded up later.

Vile scum running our country right now.

TSA screens international connecting passengers because not all countries screen like the U.S. and those passengers have had access to their luggage. There are plenty of things that you can bring in your luggage that you can't bring on an airplane, like big boy tubes of toothpaste. TSA doesn't want you to access that while clearing your luggage at Customs, and then get on a connecting flight. A long time ago in a galaxy far far away I used to travel internationally with guns and ammo to do some competitive shooting. Can't remember how they did it then, but that would be an obvious reason to be rescreened.

The person in question was an international arrival at Cincinnati that was not connecting. Evidently the international arrivals at Cincinnati come into Concourse B of Terminal 3. In order to get from Concourse B to the "curb" you have to pass through Terminal 3, a secure area.

This wasn't some huge victory for Civil Rights, they just escorted him out of the secure area. The screening of non-connecting passengers at that airport is a function of airport layout and not some special harassment scheme.

TSA agents are turning into typical molesters. Do it then lie about it.

In answer to your question. Obama voted 3x’s against a bill that would have allowed babies that were born alive after an abortion attempt, medical treatment. Instead he felt that they should be allowed to die. Tells you how much he really cares about human life doesn’t it?

The concept is broken, the execution is worse, and under this administration, the motives are malicious.

So I guess we should all give kudos to the TSA for helping protect America from an innocent little autistic boy with a baggy shirt. Great Job TSA!

Kudos to Obama and Janet Napolitano. They have just provided Republicans with political ads for upcoming elections that typify a government gone berserk at the expense of a very young autistic child in the name of "national security."

These are the kind of guys the TSA should be looking for:

Summation: The term "Islamic extremists" is verboten by the feds. The term "domestic extremists" is acceptable by the feds and currently racking up the names of citizens:

DHS & TSA - making a list, checking it twice

It labels any person who “interferes” with TSA airport security screening procedure protocol and operations by actively objecting to the established screening process, “including but not limited to the anticipated national opt-out day”  as a “domestic extremist.” The label is then broadened to include “any person, group or alternative media source” that actively objects to, causes others to object to, supports  and/or elicits support for anyone who engages in such travel disruptions at U.S. airports in response to the enhanced security procedures.
