Another List

USA Today:

Airline passengers who get frustrated and kick a wall, throw a suitcase or make a pithy comment to a screener could find themselves in a little-known Homeland Security database.

The Transportation Security Administration says it is keeping records of people who make its screeners feel threatened as part of an effort to prevent workplace violence.

Sigh. How long before someone looks to deny civil rights because you were rude to a TSA agent who was busy cupping your balls?

    I’m sure I’m on that list. I use my carry permit as my ID. The looks on the faces of the blue shirt squad are hilarious.

    Seeing as how they can barely manage to link together databases of suspected terrorists, I think adults throwing temper tantrums are fairly safe.

  3. Breda Says:

    Do they actually cup your balls?

    If you refuse the full-body scanner at Tampa they do.

    Gotta make sure those aren’t grenades in your pants.

    I’ve done that too (although not with the TSA because I refuse to fly).

    I’ve found that almost always it gets you a strange new respect. The notary at my local credit union was especially impressed.

    Thinking of booking a flight now, Breda? 😉

    I want my name on that list, just like I want it on the SPLC’s naughty list (http://www.splcenter.org/get-informed/publications/the-patriots). Badge of accomplishment.

  8. oldsmobile98 Says:

    Eh, it included the latter parenthesis in the link. Here you go.

    I had a doctor cup my, uhm, package, once. Thank the LORD it was a blackhead. Hurt like a , well, enough.

  10. gene Says:

    Should a list of tsa employees who make passengers feel threatened, be started?

  11. Jerry Says:

    Or startled, ‘mebbe?

  12. straightarrow Says:

    I have foregone any air travel because I don’t want to go to jail for killing some sonofabitch who richly deserves it. I know me. Too damn bad there are so few of me.

  13. oldsmobile98 Says:

    I’m about to fly so I can go to my best friend’s wedding up on Long Island.

    TSA had better not mess with me.

Remember, I do this to entertain me, not you.
