From this Texas TV station, we read of a woman who was arrested after she refused a pat-down molestation session from the TSA. She couldn't go through the scanner, due to her pacemaker. Having been a rape victim in the past, she didn't want to go through a repeat of her trauma. Can anyone blame her?
The callousness of the TSA is abominable. What is even more chilling is the attitude of the other travelers interviewed. These are the sorts of people who would make great nazi pawns. In fact these are the sorts of folks that might be called "sheeple" - go along to get along.
As I think of these folks, a quote from Benjamin Franklin comes to mind: "Those who would give up essential liberty to purchase a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety." They also wind up obtaining neither in the end.
Now let's watch this Rod Stewart-esque video on the TSA screening debacle. At the very end you'll see the Fourth Amendment. You might want to pause the video to study that amendment. Click here if you can't see embedded video.

A Montage Of TSA Abuses - And A Song!
First, here's a clip highlighting some of the abuses that we can expect from this Brave New World if we don't nip it in the bud. Click here if you cannot see embedded video.
Now here's a little diddy that I threw together in (dis)honor of the TSA. Perhaps some gutsy travelers might want to sing it (to the tune of the popular Pink Floyd song, if they wish - just a suggestion!) while waiting for their groping sessions!
We don’t need no molestation
No cancer-causing radiation
No other sort of violation
TSA, just go away!
Hey! TSA! Stay the hell away!
TSA, you’re just a pawn of the socialist state.

The TSA Molestations - Will We Be Dignified People Or Docile Sheeple?
Much has been written about the defacto sexual assaults that are being conducted at various airports - all for our safety, of course. I'll post a few links below that I think give good input.

Let's be very clear. This is sexual assault, plain and simple - assault ordered by the Messiah Most Miserable's Mindless Minions. Janet Napolitano seems to be one of the masterminds behind it all (if you can call whatever she has between her ears a "mind").
On one level this amounts to a gross violation of the Fourth Amendment, which prohibits unreasonable search and seizure. And yes, feeling the genitals of toddlers and the breasts of elderly women, along with x-rays showing the naked body is unreasonable by any standards of decency.
For those of us who understand human dignity and the essential virtue of modesty, the TSA assaults are much more abhorrent. We can never allow our modesty to be violated in such a manner. Recall basic moral theology. We must look at a give act and evaluate the kind of act that it is. It is either moral or immoral on its face. The motivation behind an immoral act, be it ever so benign or even noble, cannot make an immoral act into a moral act. The treatment being foisted upon travelers by the TSA is inherently immoral.
I for one am heartened by the uproar this has caused. It is evidence that there still remains some sense of our dignity as people and our rights to be secure in our persons. Some on high are at least making noises that signify that they are hearing us - particularly after this past election. I say keep it up and make the Federal bureaucrats damned remorseful that they ever dared come up with such reprehensible nonsense. They may well reverse it.
On the other hand, I am dismayed to be hearing some signs of passivity and even acceptance of such affront to our dignity. Just tonight I was listening to Sean Hannity voice sympathy to the TSA workers who were "just doing their job". Not so! They can no more be excused for molesting people than the rank-and-file Nazi soldier could be excused for herding people into the gas chambers. "I was just following orders!" was rightly rejected as an excuse at the Nuremberg trials, and it is no more acceptable today.
Then there are some who opine that such "inconvenience" is necessary to ensure that we're all safe. Safe!??!? From whom? Having one's private areas groped and squeezed is NOT safety; it is the very opposite. It is a most egregious assault on one's person and is inherently degrading. It is impossible to overstate the psychological damages, both to the hapless traveler and the worker.
We seem to have forgotten our dignity as human beings, created in the image and likeness of God. Please go to the right toolbar and pull up that copy of the Declaration of Independence. The Protestants who penned it had a much more inate sense of whom God created them to be. I'd also like to remind us all of the quote attributed to Benjamin Franklin, "They that can give up essential liberty to purchase a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety." They also forfeit both in actuality. Remember the speech of Patrick Henry? Read the whole thing, but especially the last paragraph. How about this from Samuel Adams? Ladies and gentlemen, this is our heritage. Will we allow it to be treated with so little regard by the Messiah? More importantly, do we take our heritage seriously? If we don't, the terrorists - and the progressives, have won.
