SAN DIEGO — John Tyner won't be pheasant hunting in South Dakota with his father-in-law any time soon.

Tyner was simultaneously thrown out of San Diego International Airport on Saturday morning for refusing to submit to a security check and threatened with a civil suit and $10,000 fine if he left.

And he got the whole thing on his cell phone. Well, the audio at least.

The 31-year-old Oceanside software programmer was supposed to leave from Lindbergh Field on Saturday morning and until a TSA agent directed him toward one of the recently installed full-body scanners, Tyner seemed to be on his way.

Damn good quote.

[Zuben Elgenubi]

His father-in-law, a 40-year retired deputy sheriff, can be heard pleading in the back ground for some common sense.

Oh, STFU deputy sheriff. Take your medicine like a man.

[Sacajaweau]

Stop the cr** and go through the damn scanner....

NO EXCEPTIONS!!!!!

EVERYONE GOES THROUGH..this way, no one is getting touched.

I worked for years in a business near TPA and had two regular customers that were TSA employees. Both of these people had mental illness problems of some sort.
At first I figured TSA did not know or care. However, over the years considering these people and many other TSA employees I have observed, I have become convinced that having some sort of mental illness problem or low IQ must be a plus to the hiring process.

I am sick of Thugs Sexually Assaulting people.

If Al Queda wants to destroy America, there are 100 novel ways they’ll do it

So true. I know some of the 100.

why not just adopt Israel’s policy of only going after people who are likely terrorists instead of this PC policy that goes after everybody?

“At O’Hare the TSA agents were the rudest, most obnoxious people I’ve seen.”

The camel’s nose. If they can get away with being rude, what else will we put up with?

So explain why Zero has spent over $2 million to prevent disclosure of the original, long form, vault copy of his BC?

I had a flight out of a small town week before last. Seven passengers on an 8 seat airplane.

1 cop and 3 TSA agents to clear us through security.

[paul51]

yeah, he should have just dropped his pants and volunteered for a cavity search like a good little sheep. grow a pair.

Nah, it just sounds like you enjoy having your junk handled by other men, poofterboy.

You mean the scanner the TSA has admitted doesn’t work for what they are using it for?

[rawhide]

That is an asinine statement! The guy is not a nutjob!

I do not want some TSA felon/sex predator touching my private parts either. Nor would I want them touching my wife nor my precious little girls, in their private areas or twisting their breasts!!! Hands off completely.

And no naked body scanner either! I do not care to deal with the radiation issue, but the pictures that are seen are more a concern to me.

I do not trust our federal government.

[E. Pluribus Unum]

"By buying your ticket you gave up a lot of rights," countered the TSA supervisor.

I wonder how many other purchases the federal government plans on using as a de facto waiver-of-rights?

My bet is they've already got some planned.

[ml/nj]

Nobody is going to hijack another plane with a boxcutter.

Wanna bet? I'll give you 10-1 that I can board my next flight with a dozen of them if I so desire.

Some are decent people. Most are barely qualified mouth breathers who get a kick out of screwing with people.

You’re full of it, the only reason we need this is due to muslims, more will die of cancer than any terrorist attack, and mark my words, for religious reasons muslim women will be able to opt out of the scan and the feel up, for sure, without a doubt.
