Stop Flying!!! - TSA WARNS: SUBMIT OR PAY

Wake up!!! - $11,000 fine, arrest possible for some who refuse airport scans and pat downs - By John Lantigua - Palm Beach Post - 8:59 a.m. EST, November 20, 2010

If you don't want to pass through an airport scanner that allows security agents to see an image of your naked body or to undergo the alternative, a thorough manual search, you may have to find another way to travel this holiday season.

The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) is warning that any would-be commercial airline passenger who enters an airport checkpoint and then refuses to undergo the method of inspection designated by TSA will not be allowed to fly and also will not be permitted to simply leave the airport.

That person will have to remain on the premises to be questioned by the TSA and possibly by local law enforcement. Anyone refusing faces fines up to $11,000 and possible arrest.

The Hound: The TSA is part of the Federal Government so the Constitution directly comes into play. This is a violation of the 4th and 10th Amendments. The full-body scanners and feel-ups violate the Fourth Amendment to the constitution, which protects against "unreasonable searches and seizures."

Our government has NO authority to conduct these searches. The Constitution does not mention searches to be conducted by government. And the Tenth Amendment therefore leaves this area to the states or the people, in this case, the airline itself. I blame this on the Airline industry for allowing this issue to be taken this far. If the Airline industry is going to allow their customers to be treated like this, then they deserve to go under.

The customers need to tell the business owners that they no longer want their product. If they do this, then I will guarantee you that all of this will stop. Do you think that the government or airline industry want to see this commerce be decimated? I am sure some of the wacko authoritarians in our country love this, but people with common sense do not. Problem is that the people with common sense have stood back and trusted the anarchists to do the right thing, when common sense should have you knowing better.

If these types of hyper-security measures become the norm, then our great nation is lost and has been defeated by the supposed enemies of freedom that we are supposed to be protected from. The anarchists are winning. They are in control of this country right now. They are running Wall Street. They hold high positions in the government. They are consolidating control and too many people are clueless about what is going on around them.

No naked body scanners! No pat downs, when people have done nothing wrong! No touching peoples private parts! No harassing the Elderly or Children who just want to freely travel!

Benjamin Franklin stated Those who would give up Essential Liberty to purchase a little Temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety. We have seen constant intrusion into our privacy and it is time to say enough!!!
