| State, local lawmakers seek alternatives to TSA airport screenings |
| 2010-12-04 |
| A coach-class rebellion against the Transportation Security Administration is brewing as state and local lawmakers challenge the agency's right to implement its invasive airport-safety protocols. "I'd like to send Washington a clear signal that these aggressive pat-downs and body scanners may have crossed the line," said Sean Paige, a member of the Colorado Springs City Council. "We want to maintain airport security, but need to speak up for the passengers who come through our city." I don't know if the TSA or the public is considering this or not, but those who flew on Thanksgiving were basically trapped into flying on the busiest flying period of the year because they had already purchased their non-refundible tickets. Maybe the ignorant will belive that this suggests that most people are happy with this and that they should get into line like the rest of the sheeple, but I don't. What do today's ticket sales look like? |
