Showing Original Post only (View all)TSA detains woman for "attitude" [View all]
"A woman who claims the Transportation Security Administration detained her from her flight because the agent didn't like her attitude has posted a video of the confrontation on YouTube.
The 22-second video has 45,000 views as of Monday morning. It is posted under the name AirportVideoofTSA. The person who uploaded the video writes, "I was not allowed to board a plane (even though I had already been through airport security) because I drank my water instead of letting the TSA "test" it. The TSA agent finally admitted that it wasn't because they thought I was a security risk-it was because the TSA agent, Louis Godeaux, was mad at me!""

So now, if you're not properly submissive, don't give the little TSA jerks the respect they feel they reserve, you can and will be detained.
Bin Laden won, as we watch our freedoms slowly drain away.
Of course people continue to put up with this shit, even as it becomes ever more harsh, arbitrary and capricious. The only way to rein in the TSA is to simply not fly, a massive boycott of the airlines. But that's not going to happen, the American people are now proper sheeple, willing to put up with anything.
Me, I haven't flown in well over a decade, and won't do so again. I don't feel like giving a person with a power trip control over what happens to me.
