As I was watching TSA searchers violating free citizens rights by having them physically violated as they went through the screening process, and the fact that now we are going to give waivers to Pilots and special searches for Molsems, it dawned on me that the TSA personnel themselves are totally exempt from the process as the enter and exit the search area.
Up to now, I have not heard one soundbite about them. Stop and think about it. Here we have the lower echelon of the workforce that are at most risk of criminal behavior (minimum wage uneducated workers) freely coming in and out of a "secure" area each time they enter their workplace. In the morning, after lunch, breakfast, and supper, and many other times throughout the day, they enter and exit the area.
Now, with that in mind shouldn't we all demand that ALL TSA workers be screened EVERY time they enter the "SECURE AREA?"
I think that if they had to undergo the same ridiculous searches themselves things might change simply because they would not like it....nothing more....and many would simply quit rather than be searched many times a day.
We need to press the issue so that they can be "happy campers" just like the sheeple who now are humiliated each time they board a plane.

Don't touch my junk.
Oh silly me! Should have known grand larceny was a job’s benefit.
Last time we flew out of CVG (cincinnati) the screener stopped the belt bringing stuff into the scanner and made my husband open his carry on case. OMG, the toothpaste was over the allowed size limit. They confiscated the toothpaste.
“I want to see the screeners scanned before they leave work.”
Very good idea! While I was being searched in the Orlando airport, I had one of the TSA agents steal 2 credit cards from my billfold that was being searched. It was impossible to tell who it was because I was in a pat-down search while my billfold was in the x-ray machine.
The discovery was not made until I was in flight and tried to use the card to purchase a mixed drink.
I wrote my senior thesis on Airport Security- America vs. Europe. I did extensive research on the TSA. When the agency switched the FAA to being the TSA, people were required to have a high school diploma or equivalent. They had to scrap that as about 15% did not which would lead to a loss of employees. They changed to requirement to experience on the screening equipment.
Look up Milgram Experiment. The TSA workers are being dehumanized in a very similar manner. Look for the TSA to spread their power to other facets of law enforcement since they already have an obedient workforce.
Time has come for refusing to allow 4th Amendment rights to be trampled. Friday my 52 year old wife was selected at J
Hobby Airport for pat down on breasts crotch and rear. She just finished chemo three months ago and had double masectomy breast reconstruction last month, is very tender. Out in the open the TSA screener pulled down her clothes to look at scars and pulled open her pants to look down back and front. An octogenarian white lady with a cane was right behind as next victim.
Meanwhile a large family Muslims including men in their 30s ans several women in hijab full bee keeper outfit got whisked by express in the adjacent lane with no pat down.
I complained to the TSA supervisor that my wife’s rights under 4th Amendment to the Constitution from TSAs unreasonable search and violation of right to privacy.
My wife was weeping and shaking and sobbing. She could not be consoled.
I thought this was America but it turns out we live in a Gulag.
Since all federal funding originates in the House, Republicans will solidify their majorities by cutting off all funding to TSA.
The will receive the enduring loyalty of millions and, in the process, continue to decimate and eliminate Democrats.
TSA: "Our Office of Civil Rights and Liberties ensures all employees and the public are treated in a fair and lawful manner without regard to race, color, national origin, religion, age, sex, disability, sexual orientation, parental status or genetic information. With a zero tolerance for harassment, illegal discrimination and retaliation, our office helps the agency recognize and respect the social and cultural backgrounds of our employee and customers. These efforts ultimately improve our nation's security."
These are fighting words in the current political climate.
There is very little tolerance for this type of heinous political correctness vomited up by liberals.
“I want to see the screeners scanned before they leave work.”
It would be good to have them scanned when they report to work as well. The last time I flew I was going through security during shift change. The TSA agents walked past the queue of average citizens waiting to be scanned and bypassed the scanner to report to their stations.
“Yes, the TSA is a Dem make work program.”
TSA was formed in 2001 under the George W. Bush administration.
OSHA and the EPA were initiatives of the Richard Nixon administration.
Unfortunately the current bureaucratic monster state is the creation of both political parties.
Its not a threat. It is the way things are evolving. The TSA, and each one working for them have been put into the category of eemies of the people by our the so called president of the United States, Janet Napolitano and Eric Holder.
This is very clear, that TSA workers have been duped into becomeing the fascist brown shirts in blue of the Obama liberal fascist movement. TSA is committing crimes in violation of the 4th amendment rights of Americans.
Your family memeber needs to quit that job and get out, because I can assure you, the shite is about to hit the fan.
I would quit that job in a heart beat. I could not work for an organization that commits crimes of assault against Americans. Maybe your famuly member can.In the end what will happen will not be any where worth the money, you can count on it.
Its not your family members fault that this is happening. He or she is being used by the Obama fascist movement.If one tolerates that usage, one has become an agent of fascism when, as in Germany in the 1930s, so many said”just following orders.” In this instance that excuse is just not good enough.TSA workers should be quitting “en mass” for being required to commit crimes against Americans.It becomes your family memebers faukt if they stay on that criminal enterprise now called Obama’s TSA.
Hey, I am all for it!
That was cited in the original post.
Work in the TSA? Get out now!!!
Obama’s blue shirted TSA are in truth, Obama’s version of fascist Brown Shirts, who now systematically dismantle and usurp the 4th amendment rights of the people.
Heads are exploding on the DU site. They have to confront the fact that they voted for the implimentation of fascism by Obama’s TSA,justified by Obama’s politically correct “non profiling”, and they have to confront the fact they THEY are responsible for their leg tingly vote,

*****************************************
You never take a mothers baby away from her, it’s against everything we stand for (I thought).
I copied and paste some of this poor mothers story, it needs to be told.
“He then told me, “I’m going to have to pick him up to inspect him.”
I rolled my eyes and sternly told him “It’s his pacifier clip that went off, can’t you just run that back through the belt and let us go. We are going to miss our flight.”
The female TSA agent, who had been standing there the entire time said to me, “You need to adjust your attitude and do as you are told.”
The male TSA agent repeated, “I’m going to have to pick him up to inspect him.”
I handed him my son.
I handed him my son and he walked away with my child.
My eyes welled up with tears, I stood up from my chair and I asked the female TSA agent, “Where is he going? Where is he taking my child? Why is he leaving?”
Jackson, while being whisked away looked at the male TSA agent awkwardly and repeated “no no no no.”
I started crying.
The female TSA agent did not answer me.
Panic set in. My hands began to shake. My body was sweating. My breath was short and my heart was racing.
They had taken my child and not told me.
Jackson was out of my eye sight.
I could not see my son.
Now sobbing, I repeated my questions to the female TSA agent.
She told me “Ma’am, we’re trying to be nice to you. We don’t know which one of you went off in the metal detector. Stay here so I can search you.”
“But my son… where is my son?” I asked over and over again.
The female TSA agent called a second female TSA agent over as she began to search me. Apparently the second female TSA agent could hear me protesting and asking for my son.
“Ma’am you need to calm down or I’m going to have to involve the authorities,” she told me.
Now I was pissed.
Horrified. Terrified. Enraged.
“You fucking get the authorities,” I told the female TSA agent while the other continued to wand me and forced me to unbutton my jeans because the button beeped when she went over my abdomen with her wand.
“You get the goddamn authorities right the fuck now and tell them to GIVE ME MY SON,” I said.
I began to black out. I knew I was having a full on panic attack. I feared passing out”.”
Should we take our 50 person Kung Fu school on a flight to San Francisco? We all can refuse the scan and when the groping starts, defend ourselves according to the right of self defence.
And I can tell you this, there wouldn’t be one Blue shirt left standing.
That would create a constitutional challenge to these violations of our 4th amendment rights, all of us would be arrested and charged.We would submit peacefully to arrest.
RECORD EVERYTHING !
