It just amazes me that conservatives are so mistrusting of the MSM, including the Rathergate network about anything but reported TSA abuses. Everyone just gloms on to every single story as if all of them are absolutely true.
My only experiences with TSA have been when I travel & the agents I know personally—each of whom are veterans. These guys served this country honorably. Each of whom are good, decent people who are being crucified because of terrible policies & out of control rumor mongering.
The villians in all of this are BHO, Soros & Crapitano. How many of those who will celebrate the first time a TSA agent is serioulsy assaulted have bothered to contact any member of the new congress who can actually DO something about these insane policies? Congress controls funding for TSA, that is where I am taking my complaints. Crapitano & Pistole have made it clear they don’t care what we want. I’d suggest pressuring congress.
Did you ever think that these stories fit peoples' agendas around here and that is why they lend them credulity?
Nobody on FR likes an intrusive government. What can be more intrusive than this? So if an anecdote is posted that meets somebody's pre-defined attitude, then its natural that they will go with it. And, face it, the majority of TSA agents who act professionally do not qualify as news objects, now do they?

True. Unfortunately they aren't doing the pat-downs nor operating the machines. Nor are your congresscritters.

Good idea.
But let me give you a little hint: if the environment is not stirred up to where a whole lot of people are really and truly outraged by these kind of policies, your complaint will go on deaf ears, no matter how well founded it is. Posting these stories should result in a whole lot of folks contacting a whole lot of Congresscritters and screaming. When the volume is loud enough for them to not be able to ignore, then you should see something. But not until that point.
Right here. I have been lobbying hard for defunding ever since they tricked my wife into one of those Nude-O-Scopes. They did not offer her an opt-out, in fact they told her there were no other options.
The TSA is filled with Brownshirted thugs and it has to go. If you want to defend them, then explain why my wife had to have the radioactive strip-search and why her right to opt-out was denied. Go ahead, try it.
