If you refuse the pat down and decide to leave you’ll be arrested. Once you’re to that point you “MUST” allow them to do their job. Nice, huh.

From the article:

An ABIA spokesman says it is TSA policy that anyone activating a security alarm has two options. One is to opt out and not fly, and the other option is to subject themselves to an enhanced pat down. Hirschkind refused both and was arrested.

She has the right to refuse the enhanced pat-down and go home without being arrested. She refused to go home it appears. I am not sure what she was charged with though?

There is something seriously wrong with that policy you described. It’s not your description, but the reality of the practice.

Air travel is off the radar for as long as the ‘police state’ practices remain.

The direction this regime has taken the Country is truly obscene. And to know that many Republicans have signed on to this path of destruction is mind boggling. We’ve been had by a very dark and nefarious clique of operators.

I realize many good men and women are risking their welfare daily in order to secure our mutual freedoms, but procedures and policies laid out by the executives is, in my opinion, in conflict with the spirit of the Constitution - that thing to which we’ve anchored our patriotic heart and mind.

The apparency of closure between my Faith in Christ and the Foundings of this Nation is clearer each day as we continue in the approach to authoritarianistic rule; the Liberties provided by our Fathers are indeed inseparable from the truths of our Judeo-Christianity.
