SAN FRANCISCO — A pilot who posted YouTube videos criticizing security at San Francisco International Airport says he's shocked at the national uproar they've created. Chris Liu told ABC's "Good Morning America" on Tuesday that he wasn't aware so many people watch YouTube.

He and his attorney, Don Werno, defended the footage as exposing a security lapse at the airport.

Liu's state-issued permit to carry a concealed weapon was also suspended by the Placer County sheriff."

Based on what was his concealed weapon permit suspended???

Doesn't have to be based an anything anymore. We now live under the rule of man, not of law. The constitution is stone cold dead and America is under a nascent tyranny.

Reich Minister Holder’s and Reich Minister Napolitano’s orders that’s what. The pilot will taken to a Luft Stalag shortly.

Because he's a threat to Homeland Secu... Er, 'National Security'.

CCW permits in California are issued on a purely discretionary basis by the sheriff of the county that the applicant lives in, and when Homeland Security tells a sheriff to jump, they better say 'How High?'.

Pilots and stewardesses are upstairs getting X-rayed and pawed by TSA oafs, while the illegal alien baggage handlers just swipe a card to open the door to the entire flight line.

Tell me about it!

The U.S. Secret Service pounded on my door last week and wanted to talk to me about something I posted on this website that was critical about Obama.

I said nothing and slammed the door shut...

Today I found out I was a “Person of Interest.”

FReepers beware! Always remember the SS is part of Homeland Security.

OMG is this true? Something on FR? Can you give details of what was said? Have they been casing your house, following you around? Phones tapped, etc.?

I’m still looking at ALL my posts for something unlawful...The SS agent said he wanted to talk to me about something I posted at Free Republic..He didn’t say exactly what it was, and I wasn’t about to continue the conversation without a lawyer present. I told him to get off my property and not to come back without a warrant.

He left, but a couple of local cops sat outside my house for a couple of hours...Then today I talked to a neighbor who said the SS called her for information about me saying that I was a “Person of Interest.”

Chilling, heh? America has become Russia. Do I get a knock at the door at 3 a.m.?

How do you figure the SS actually figured out your name and address? I’m not saying this is a thoroughly anonymous site, but it’s not wide open either.

No idea...Maybe they have me confused with another poster? I’ve carefully re-read all my posts and they are inoffensive opinion pieces...What’s happening is weird...like something out of Kafka.

Talked to my lawyer a few minutes ago and no charges yet...He talked earlier to an SS agent, the “duty officer” in our city who claims not to know anything.

The irony of the use of the term SS now. Our country has changed so much for the worse.

Did you call this story into a talk radio show today? I heard a very similar story on either Beck or Rush or the local morning show.

I deal with federal agents all the time with my job.

I was a bit intimidated the first time one walked into my ofice many years ago, but since then, I have no problem amswering their questions and giving them information that they want.

I think most of them are simply just following SOP’s which are issued from up top..
