TSA Asking About Secession Petition (vanity)
Posted on 11/13/2012 7:33:23 PM PST by TigerClaws
Buddy flying DC to Louisiana was asked if he'd signed the petition to secede at WhiteHouse.gov.
Surprised that's being treated as anything as political theater. Do they ask people if they are members of Occupy Wall Street or Code Pink?
They are making their lists and checking them twice...

They don’t need to burden the TSA with this, harassing citizens who annoy the government is what the IRS is for. And with all the new agents that Obamacare will be bringing on board, they’ll probably be able to haul every secession petition signer in for a complete audit and body cavity search.

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble,
and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.Looks to me like folks are free to petition however they feel aggrieved.
Of course, I'm just a cook, reading the plain language, not a constitutional scholar.

Wow, and I’ll wager they’re quickly getting the names of everyone who signed the petitions.

Of course. But this “petition” stuff setup by Obama’s comrades on his website is nothing more than a mockery of the constitution. No good can come of it.

I don’t grok this fully, but can’t anybody put any sort of petition up there? Why not put up our own mockeries. Let’s petition for 40 acres and a unicorn.

I quit expecting anything good from the government right after I signed my first enlistment papers. ;)
On one hand, if they push it, and declare signers terrorists, that's what they will create. On the other, this is really bad PR for government and all parties in general, if they don't intend to push it.
Not much a cook can do about their choice.
I do refuse to despair.

I’m in the middle of 35 treatments for prostate cancer. Wonder if I’ll glow at the airport. I’ll find out if there’s any residue Dec 26.
To: HiTech RedNeck
Yup. I want a free Obama phone, free birth control, free socks and free lunch. It’s my right. Especially the socks. All of God’s children deserve unholy socks!!
No justice, no peace!!

I don’t think the body cavity searches should merely be confined to airports anymore.
If, as a nation, we’re really concerned about domestic, home-grown terrorists, it seems to me that the TSA should go by everyone’s domicile weekly in armed teams to conduct thorough searches. I think we should expect nothing less from our protectors.

Indeed, if only the government could control every aspect of our lives, down to and including bowel movement times and masses... then we could truly live in a free utopia.

And “indeed” back at ya’!
I do believe that’s exactly the direction they AND our bowel movements are heading in. So much in sync, in fact, that I can hardly tell the difference between them any more.

Pretty soon all Romney voters will be subjected to extra searches.
