The security checkpoint for TSA will now be outside the airport. You strip at home, get into a car and go through TSA and then park your car.

It's all Snowden's fault. He has compromised NSA, TSA, and our national security; as a result, now we have terrorists running with evil guns in LAX.

Another high-profile incident where multiple suspects are initially reported. This means that the final media story will be one suspect, likely white, definitely male, with a background of heavy pharmaceutical prescriptions that will not be investigated.

Upping the truth beyond all of that, cannot deny that when it comes to farming the weak minds and extorting the poor idiots' paranoia, and displaying the eternal nature of US 'american' Getapo police state citizenism, nobody can hold a candle out of both sides of their mouth like duplicitous fearmongering US 'american' TSA and DHS citizens.  They are that and something else, so much and even less.

Re:  outside the airport

I like it.   Instead of allowing cars near the airport,  just let the TSA pick people up at home in "Secure Transport Vans".   All screening is done at pickup.

Lots of high-paying union TSA transport jobs, and the NSA can monitor the "Secure Transport Vans" for any none-patriots.

That's not funny.  The Nazis and the Soviets clamped down on free movement by requiring travel passes.  We're basically headed there, too.  The TSA would love any expansion beyond the airports, and in fact, are already doing so.

 

Also, there's been a lot of trial balloons floated in multiple states for requiring GPS trackers in cars because they say they suddenly aren't collecting enough fuel taxes.  They blame the drop in revenue on people driving less and purchasing more fuel-efficient vehicles, which is what they told us to fucking do!  Now they want to stick that up our asses, too!

Exactly, you don't think the DHS is stockpiling billions of rounds of ammo for just their agents do you? All the TSA agents will now be armed. They deem you need a strip search, and will enforce it at gunpoint in the future. South Park will have to update their TSA (Toilet Safety Administration) episode.

The TSA guy I saw at a shop a few months ago was a slob in a wrinkled uniform who was so fat he couldn't even get the back of his shirt tucked in. He probable lives in his mother's basement, because no woman would have him. They could arm him, but he'd probably shoot himself in the foot trying to draw his service weapon.

Terrorism evokes terrorism. The government is a major player in what is happening in America. Americans must take back their government if ever there is to be peace and prosperity again – both here and abroad.

If the government can decide secretly to assassinate an American citizen (calling it legal), then it’s time for Americans to do something about their government other than “electing” bought politicians.

There’s no more sinister document than the rational now in place giving a “top government official” authority to kill any American, any time, any place, the legalese rational put together by government lawyers.

Tyranny…and this is tyranny…is not combated through the ballot box.

An Enemy of the State: Redefining 'Imminent Threat' |Jesse’s Café Américain

In early 2013, a Department of Justice white paper surfaced that laid out the Lawfulness of a Lethal Operation Directed Against a U.S. Citizen.

The government lawyers who wrote the 16-page document asserted that the government need not possess specific intelligence indicating that an American citizen is actively engaged in a particular or active terror plot in order to be cleared for targeted killing.

Instead, the paper argued that a determination from a 'well-informed high level administration official' that a target represents an 'imminent threat' to the United States is a sufficient basis to order the killing of an American citizen. But the Justice Department’s lawyers sought to alter the definition of 'imminent,' advocating what they called a 'broader concept of imminence.'

They wrote, 'The condition that an operational leader present an imminent threat of violent attack against the United States does not require the United States to have clear evidence that a specific attack on U.S. persons will take place in the immediate future.'

The government lawyers argued that waiting for a targeted killing of a suspect 'until preparations for an attack are concluded, would not allow the United States sufficient time to defend itself.' They asserted that such an operation constitutes 'a lawful killing in self-defense' and is 'not an assassination.'

Jameel Jaffer of the ACLU called the white paper a 'chilling document,' saying that 'it argues that the government has the right to carry out the extrajudicial killing of an American citizen.'

Jaffer added, 'This power is going to be available to the next administration and the one after that, and it’s going to be available in every future conflict, not just the conflict against al-Qaeda.

And according to the [Obama] administration, the power is available all over the world, not just on geographically cabined battlefields. So it really is a sweeping proposition...'

Today, decisions on who should live or die in the name of protecting America’s national security are made in secret, laws are interpreted by the president and his advisers behind closed doors, and no target is off-limits, including U.S. citizens. But the decisions made in Washington have implications far beyond their impact on the democratic system of checks and balances in the United States.

It’s the government protecting itself from its citizens…the government has classified all Americans as potential enemies and it treats them that way. And if you say something they don’t like, here they come in their helmets and riot gear. And they have the guns. It’s the State versus the citizens. It’s a police state. That’s what they do – they send in the SWAT teams. And, immediately, you have no rights: IE, it’s okay for them to shoot you.

Here’s the point, suppose someone steps in front of this guy and says “Wait a minute.” They’ll shoot him. He no longer has any constitutional rights.

Kill List Exposed: Leaked Obama Memo Shows Assassination of US Citizens "Has No Geographic Limit"

I remember growing up and couldn't wait for the weekly live braodcast of the Ed Sullivan Show. Now as an adult, I get to watch a weekly live braodcast of people getting shot. Meh, things may have changed a bit since Ed Sullivan.

Well over 100 every night across the US.  The only exception to this are when it rains heavily across much of the country or in the dead of winter.

Shootings ALWAYS spike in April or May (depending on city and climatic zone) because of the pent up energy they store during the winter.  Check out crime data overlain with temperature sometime.

Here’s a video from the LA Times depicting your government at “work,” tapes that show mentally ill prisoners forced from cells with pepper spray:

SACRAMENTO — Videotapes released Thursday (Oct 31) by a federal court show mentally ill prisoners in California being forced from their cells by guards who douse them repeatedly with pepper spray.

Some of the inmates are being forced to comply with medication orders; others are to be moved to new cells

WARNING: “Contains nudity, screaming and other disturbing content: This video shows a mentally ill inmate at Corcoran State Prison being subdued.”
