“I’m not saying you were serious. But others might think it was. That’s all.”

People who are pushed around by agency’s of the government SHOULD take it seriously. So far I have not been... But don’t screw around with people I love.

What would you do if your family was violated? Would you sit back and do nothing? Answer please...

Compared with much of the world, Americans for the most part lead comfortable lives. Therefore, until the inconvenience of subjecting themselves to TSA abuse outweighs the inconvenience of not flying, most people, although they'll complain, will ultimately just go along.

Problem is (to paraphrase "Hannibal Lecter") little minds with a little power "do enjoy their petty torments"; thus, the abuses will not just continue ... they'll expand (soon to railroads, then buses, then .......); eventually reaching a point where the public will say, "Enough!" But by then, the power is pretty much entrenched (if not so already).

I would do what I could to help my loved ones- but not lash out in violence. They are not robbers. This is not a random thug on the street. These are people in uniform, backed up by other people in uniform who are armed. They can and will call back up to quell any 'disturbance'. I believe this enterprise is designed to make us lash out exactly this way so they will make examples of those who do. Communist and fascist regimes are famous for it.

There is only one way to stop it. That is to act as an organized body. We need to harness our frustration into organized action. Like I said, boycotts, legal actions, and political. We have to beat them at their own game.

My loved ones in Russia ran from the communists. The ones that stayed to 'fight' are dead. They gave over most of them to the Nazis. Some had to serve the communists to survive. The Soviets lasted 70 years. That is a long time to brutalize a population.
