What a Difference a Day Makes!

Screenshot from yesterday's Drudge Report:


In case you can't read it (it is small, isn't it?) it reads "BIG SIS: 'We have an open ear' ... "

Let's fast forward to today, Tuesday, November 16, 2010:


There are two captions that we're interested in: the first one is big enough to be readable, so I won't repost it. However, it goes here: http://www.prisonplanet.com/tsa-now-putting-hands-down-fliers-pants.html where we learn this:
" The TSA’s invasive new screening measures include officers literally putting their hands down people’s pants if they are wearing baggy clothing in a shocking new elevation of groping procedures that have stoked a nationwide revolt against privacy-busting airport security measures. " But the article goes further: Police State? Read on...
" Speaking with The Alex Jones Show today (video coming soon), Stone went further – noting how the TSA thug directly patted down his testicles, penis and backside while his hand was inside Stone’s pants. Stone was initially embarrassed to reveal the full scope of the groping but related the details of what amounted to nothing less than outright sexual molestation. " (emphasis and colour added)
That should do more than scare the hell out of you. It should make you mad. It should make you want to tell those TSA thugs "HELL NO!" when they try to grope you. (NOTE: Time for that full disclosure thing: When I was living in Texas I applied for a job with the TSA. However, I was never called for an interview and I never worked for them. But I DID apply for a screener job.)
Personally, if some TSA jackboot tries to grope my "family jewels" he'll end up in a shouting match. I do agree that extra security is needed, but this is overboard. GROPING?!? TSA, be sure you investigate me. And the last name is spelled B I R O S H. Think you can manage to spell that correctly? SUUUURE you can!
The second caption that we're interested in reads "UPDATE: Agency to investigate resister..." which leads here: http://www.signonsandiego.com/news/2010/nov/15/tsa-probe-scan-resistor/ where we learn this:
" The Transportation Security Administration has opened an investigation targeting John Tyner, the Oceanside man who left Lindbergh Field under duress on Saturday morning after refusing to undertake a full body scan. "
Yup. Sounds like the Gestapo to me. But something that the TSA a$$hat that anounced the investigation said is just plain wrong. Here's what the article said:
" Since the rollout of the imaging scanners there has been controversy over the quality of the images, which show limited details of a person’s entire body, and the possible saving of the images – something TSA has denied is possible. " (emphasis and colour added)
Oh, really? Read on:
The title of the article? "One Hundred Naked Citizens: One Hundred Leaked Body Scans" (link is theirs and is left intact)
Now how about it, TSA? Care to change your story?
