We are in a tough economy and because of TSA tyranny things are about to get much worse. The airlines and tourism industries are being bankrupted, perhaps on purpose to bring about Socialist style nationalization of all commerce.
The TSA has become the face of terror to American travelers. Travelers are too afraid to voice their disgust of the TSA war on American’s privacy and liberty. They are afraid they will wind up on that No Fly List or be singled out for more TSA punishment.
The TSA welcomes people traveling on passports from every nation hostile to America and all of the very dangerous felons released from our prisons. Ask yourself, if the TSA really cared about safety why would they let these monsters on our planes.
You’re required to give equal attention to elderly grandmothers and little children as some nervous 18 to 35 year-old male Muslim. Does that make any sense at all?
You are required to frisk pilots and flight attendants that have been fully vetted. What can a pilot do with a gun or even a bomb that he can’t do with the entire plane under his control? This TSA policy defies the simplest of logic.
Why does the TSA disarm off-duty cops if they are so concerned about terrorists?
The TSA love to brag about the knives and a few guns brought to boarding gates by forgetful passengers? That happened to honorably retired Chicago cop and film star Dennis Farina. Farina is allowed by law to carry a concealed weapon in every state under current federal law. Was America somehow safer because the TSA had Farina arrested over a small pistol he inadvertently forgot to remove from his briefcase?
The sad truth is despite the hiring of thousands of TSA screeners and spending untold billions the TSA has not foiled a single real terror incident. The sad truth is alert passengers have done more for airline safety than you and all your fellow TSA workers.
The TSA has lowered your status to that of rectum and sex organ inspector. That’s downright disgusting. I cannot see how anyone could admit to even having such a job.
Times are tough and because of the TSA they will get worse as tourism dies. People go on tours to relax and have fun, not to even think about uniformed strangers groping them and their children.
If you work for the TSA, I feel as sorry for you as much as I hate your corrupt mission. The TSA is a much bigger threat to America and our freedom than any terrorist.
Why work for an organization that does not recognize the Bill of Rights. That crap they sell you that people can choose not to fly is beyond bogus. Your TSA has expanded their malignancy to the passenger railroads and bus travel. People have a right to travel and be free from government tyranny.
Quit the TSA and find a job where people like me won’t be passing gas in your face at every opportunity. There are plenty of government entitlements for those unwilling to work if finding a job is too difficult.

Obama and his TSA are Dangerous and un-American
Terrorism cannot be, eliminated, controlled or even reduced by government. Not even the most restrictive Police State can effectively deal with terrorism. Terrorism is the product of fanatical religious beliefs, efforts to topple governments, simple homicidal impulses or psychosis.
Terrorists simply plot around whatever security programs they must to kill and injure their targets. This is why despite employing thousands of TSA screeners and spending billions over many years not a single terror plot was defeated or uncovered.
Terrorists can sometimes be foiled in planning stages by skilled investigators or obstructed as they unfold by alert citizens and police. The truth is that no security program, no matter how invasive can have any effect at all on a committed terrorist act.
Airline security and later the TSA, was created as a theatrical demonstration to convince Americans that the skies were safe to travel. It has always been about the illusion of security at least for the travelers. After nearly four decades most Americans believe that the searching airline passengers and their baggage are both necessary and effective. The propaganda program has been wildly successful because today it’s the conventional wisdom. Americans don’t give the effectiveness or lack of it a second thought.
I said before only skillfully conducted investigations and the vigilance of citizens and police have any success at all in the derailment of terrorist acts. The disarming of pilots, permitted passengers and off-duty police by our government has only enabled terrorists.
If we really want safety we need to disband the entire TSA and strip the FAA of any security functions. We need a new agency that’s manned with existing seasoned cops taken from police agencies all over America. That massive TSA budget could allow the departments sharing this responsibility to train and hire more officers.
The new airline police agency should have an intelligence unit, a profiling unit, a sky marshal unit and every officer should have the power to seize evidence and make arrests.
Profiling in this concept is not race based but rather behavior observation. The profiling agents need to simply interact verbally with the passengers. The agents will know who needs further attention and handle this aspect in a professional manner.
We simply can no longer afford to let people from nations hostile to the United States fly on our planes. There is also no reason to allow felons convicted of violent crimes on our planes.
We need not search ordinary Americans like criminals and seize children’s sippycups or make senior and disabled citizens remove their shoes. Groping women and children’s sexual organs simply shocks the conscious of any free nation.
I remain convinced that this Barack Obama run TSA program, was created to bankrupt the airlines as an excuse to bail them out with taxpayer funds and nationalize yet another industry.
The TSA is simple government tyranny in action. We’ve seen them many times before wearing the uniforms of governments we have gone to war against. The TSA is an enemy of the American people, their freedom and liberty. Every American has a duty to resists these criminals.

We Must Stop The Obama Fascism Cold While We Still Can
Washington, DC—Being enslaved by Socialist mandated taxes along with being spied upon by a more powerful and intrusive Patriot Act has been a Hallmark of Barack Obama’s reign. Now his TSA thugs are forcefully genital groping and strip-searching American travelers and that’s just one more visible sign of what’s happening.
The abuse Americans are willing to accept from an out-of-control Police State seems limitless. Americans line up like frightened sheep at the airports. They are in fear of terrorism but now even more afraid of their own government. Americans have become world class cowards. Cowards are always, so easily enslaved as history has demonstrated since civilization began.
With the TSA searches they have slowly crept up and inside American’s body cavities. Obama has used fear as a tool to make Americans comply, both in the iron fisted enforcement of his programs and pandering fear from potential terrorism. The real terrorist is none other than Barack Obama
The Obama government style is right out of a Soviet or Nazi Socialist Police State. This is garbage is exactly why we have fought every war since the American Revolution. We are rapidly nearing the point of no return where Americans must say no, and say it with the only thing Socialist dictators understand, violence.
We have no political recall system for Presidents but they can be arrested, tried, convicted and hanged for treason. Obama has stolen our freedom and that makes him a traitor.
If Americans don’t resist the largest terrorist threat America has ever faced by Barack Obama are freedom and liberty will be doomed.

Lindsay Lohan Nixes Linda Lovelace Film
Hollywood, CA—When I heard Lindsay Lohan was set to play the late porn star, Linda Lovelace, I saw this as a career ender. That’s a role that should be played by a real porn star without a gag reflex and nothing to lose. This was a terrible role for Lohan.
The other story is the production company was unable to find insurance to cover this troubled actress. getting out of that film was a gift for Lohan. Now we can see what unknown actress will become world famous for her ability swallow monster man meat.
Lohan is both pretty and a talented actress. She was raised in a dysfunctional family and advised by both solid entertainment industry professionals and some real trolls. Lohan was a victim of her own early success and wealth.
Lohan came out the successful Disney machine. Another, alumni of Disney is my dear friend, and Golden Globe winner Ann Jillian. Ann has express deep sorrow for Lohan difficulties as have I. I think discarding this woman at her age is pre-mature. Ann wants Lohan to use that natural actress discipline to defeat her other demons too.
Lohan needs to resurrect herself from the bad friends and choices she made. Getting out of the Lovelace film is a great start. There’s no reason that Lohan cannot achieve the kind of scandal free success enjoyed by Jody Foster, Meryl Streep, or Hillary Swank.
I think it’s fair to say that Lohan is the casualty of a failed Drug War. I can’t help but think of the great talent of a lad that was almost consumed by drugs and a prison cell. That is Robert Downey, Jr. Downey got serious and took the cure and has been terrific in the many films he’s done since.
Can Lohan or Downey fall again? Sure that can happen but it’s time to encourage rather than discourage these two.
Lohan has the right looks, and she’s now the right age to play the lead of my own film project, Come Friday. The true story of a heroic Chicago policewoman back in the days all policewomen wore a uniform that consisted of heels and a skirt.
A lot of Chicago cops read my blog and would as I do have concerns that whoever plays that role never bring the late policewoman Ann Leybourne discredit. I invite and expect some comments from them on this suggestion.
I think this role would inspire Lohan’s recovery and help her to be all she can be. I’ve discussed this idea with Ann Jillian and her husband of many years, retired 023 District Chicago police Sergeant Andy Murcia. They, like me think she right for the role if I can ever get the film financed.
Whatever happens, Lindsay Lohan deserves a chance to get on with her life. Remember Lohan has never physically hurt or stolen from anyone.
TSA is Bullying Passengers, it’s Time for Civil Resistance
Washington, DC—That pretender in the Whitehouse that Liberals love is not really what they wanted. Barack Obama is not a Liberal but a solid Socialist running America as close to a Police State as he can. Aside from extending and ramping up the Patriot Act that the Liberals condemned, he’s, ordered his Homeland Security shill wreck the airlines and tourism industry though their invasive, repulsive and despicable genital groping. Make no mistake it's Obama who is in charge of the TSA.
Children cannot give consent to the genital groping. Their parents cannot consent for the children to any non-medical handling of their privates. Parents that knowingly allow anyone doing that can in fact be convicted for felony crimes in every state of the Union. There is no special security-groping exemption for the TSA. They are doing this without Congressional oversight.
An adult can consent to another adult desiring sexual contact but never children. The key word here is consent. Touching anyone anywhere without consent is unlawful in every state. When an offender touches your private parts the penalty escalates dramatically.
If you say no to the TSA screeners or they touch your children, always call local police and your lawyer. The TSA enjoys some immunity for good faith mistakes but they can be sued for the intentional violation of your Civil Rights. They should be prosecuted for their crimes.
This is nothing more than an Socialist attempt to destroy the entire vital, travel and tourism industry. Then Obama can be bail it out by more tax dollars and then nationalize it in proper Marxist style.
The latest threat is that if passengers going through the security procedures can’t tolerate the groping or pornoscanser and dare cancel their trip and leave the screening areas they will face arrest and fines.
That’s never happened yet and can’t under our Bill of rights. TSA spokesmen claim that anyone refusing will have to submit to police questioning. I guess these TSA Fascists forget about our absolute Fifth Amendment Right to not talk to police. Making a simple demand for a lawyer will still always shut this down in America. They have to allow your lawyer or a court appointed defense lawyer who will never advise you to say anything at all to anyone.
Since the TSA screeners thankfully are not sworn or trained law enforcement officers they have no power to detain anyone or seize their luggage. If things go sour at a check point and they sense you are about to leave they will again ask to see your identification or passport. Do not give your IDs to them because they will accuse you of assault when you try to take them back. They only want your name to subject you to additional unlawful harassment and indignities.
The TSA screeners cannot make you stand in specific places, raise your arms or even require you to remove your shoes. You have the absolute right to turn and walk away! Buying a plane ticket or entering a screening area does not create an automatic waiver of your Civil Rights. You may say no, or Hell No at any time.
Cooperating with thugs never works under any conditions. The TSA can be shut down through civil resistance. We control them and their funding, they don’t control us. We must give the TSA every bit of Civil Resistance we can or be forced to submit to their tyranny forever.
Watch TSA Thug Butler try and strong-arm me for my camera at LAX. I had to threaten to thow the bitch down the stars to get her to leave me alone. I declined pressing assault charges against her and made her a YouTube sensation instead.

Major Police Scandal Unfolding in Phoenix, AZ
Phoenix, AZ—Is Phoenix police Sergeant Sean T. Drenth’s October 18. 2010 murder connected to this shocking scandal? Sgt. Drenth was murdered in an alley adjacent to a desolate State Capitol parking lot in an ongoing mystery. He was shot-gunned to death. Sgt Drenth was a suspect in this major Fraudulent Schemes and Theft case when he was killed.
The Arizona Attorney General’s office today unsealed and announced the indictments of three current and one former Phoenix police officers. As many as 25 additional officers may get caught up in this career ending disaster that may bring lengthy prison terms. For those that don’t know Arizona sentences for crimes are usually triple and quadruple what the same offenses would bring in Illinois or California.
This is a very sad day in the law enforcement community.
From the Press Release issued today:
(Phoenix, Ariz. - Nov. 18, 2010) Attorney General Terry Goddard today announced the indictment of three Phoenix Police Officers and a former member of the Phoenix Police Department on felony charges related to money they received for off-duty security work they allegedly did not perform.
Former Phoenix Officer George Emil Contreras, 45, was indicted on four felony counts that include fraud, illegal control of an enterprise and theft, for actions he took during his employment with the department performing off-duty security services for multiple clients.
Also indicted on theft charges related to off-duty work they were hired to perform were three current members of the Phoenix Police Department: Sgt. Benjamin Hugh Sywarungsymun, 35, Officer Steven Paul Peck, 40, and Officer Aaron J. Lentz, 30.
Contreras was a Phoenix Police Officer for 18 years before he resigned in 2008. While employed by the department, he also served as an off-duty work coordinator, out of the South Mountain Precinct, for off-duty jobs for the alleged business victims: the Cotton Center Townhomes at 48th Street and Broadway, Laron Incorporated, Arizona Materials, and Eisenberg Properties, all in Phoenix.
The indictment alleges that from December 2005 through December 2007, Contreras committed fraud and theft on the businesses by submitting false documents to them in the form of invoices in advance of the work to be performed and accepting pay for the full hours of work indicated in the invoices, even though he did not work the full hours for which he was paid. Contreras is alleged to also have formed and used a business called Raptor Services to invoice and collect payment from the victim businesses. Sgt. Sywarungsymun, Officer Peck, and Officer Lentz are also alleged to have committed theft by accepting pay for hours of off-duty security which they did not perform, as coordinated by Contreras.
The alleged business victim that suffered the largest loss was the Cotton Center Townhomes, which involved a security job contracted with the Phoenix Police Department by three homeowners associations to help reduce crime in an area with a high volume of calls for police service, requiring two officers and a marked patrol car.
Contreras, as the coordinator, assigned a large majority of shifts to himself, as well as the other officers listed in the indictment. Contreras is alleged to have committed thefts in excess of $9,000, Lentz in excess of $2,000, Sywarungsymun in excess of $1,800, and Peck in excess of $1,700, all felony level thefts. Total losses alleged in the indictment are in excess of $16,000.
The case is being prosecuted by Assistant Attorney General Todd Lawson and was investigated by Special Agents in the Special Investigations Section of the Attorney General’s Office.
Here is a copy of that portion of the indictment unsealed today:

The TSA Needs a Terrorist Attack for Better Public Relations
Washington, DC—The greatest tool used by enemies of freedom and liberty is fear. The entire concept of searching airline passengers like criminals was sold through simple fear-mongering.
Adolph Hitler and his National Socialist Party wanted absolute power in 1933. There was a convenient arson caused fire in the Reichstag building in Berlin. The Nazi’s quickly blamed it on their political opposition. The Nazis used fear to get the absolute power they abused for 12 years causing the needless deaths of 50 million people.
In Berlin across the street from the Reichstag building was a residence for Hitler’s pal, Herman Goering. That building still stands by the restored Reichstag. Just below the street is that troubling tunnel, still in existence today that gave the Nazis easy access to set that fire!
The TSA has had lots of failures and has never once stopped a terrorist attack despite thousands of employees and billions of tax dollars. The TSA exists only because of fear pandering. The TSA has become the biggest terrorist organization in America. That as TSA screeners, threaten Americans with imprisonment and fines over children’s sippy-cups and old lady’s knitting needles.
The TSA and our Fourth Amendment in the Bill of Rights cannot co-exist. The TSA has frightened the flying public into absolute compliance of every new insult to their basic privacy and dignity. They have actually convinced gullible Americans that without the TSA and the police state we’d all be dead.
The concept of balancing freedom with security has become nothing more than an excuse to eliminate freedom. Either you’re free, or you are not. The privacy invasions, unlawful searching and bulling have zero effect on terrorists. If terrorists are somehow convinced that hijacking or blowing up planes is too difficult they’d just pick softer targets.
I was reminded by a commercial pilot friend about something I’ve known since the day it happened. Trans World Airlines Flight 800, a Boeing 747-131, exploded and crashed into the Atlantic Ocean near East Moriches, New York, on July 17, 1996.
Our government and media has lied to us in an effort to deny the terrorists that shot it down with a surface to air missile the free publicity and credit they sought.
Government workers pressure washed every part of that plane they recovered destroying the evidence of the missile strike. There were credible eye witness reports from pilots and boaters off Long Island, New York that saw the missile. The weather conditions that night were ideal for safe flying.
The Boeing 747 has been used for some 40 years and millions of flights everywhere on this earth. This reliable aviation workhorse has never simply blown up on its own before or since flight 800. I don’t think you will find a single commercial pilot that accepts the notion that it was anything other than a surface to air missile that brought that plane down.
Terrorists embrace and thrive on publicity. The Flight 800 cover-up by our government and a cooperative press denied the terrorists what they wanted most, publicity. They learned quickly that missiles don’t get them the credit they deserve.
Terrorism and crime is in every society from the nastiest police states to those nations that brag about their freedom. Whatever roadblocks we try to establish to stop terrorism the terrorist easily find ways around them. The enemies of freedom will always promise safety in exchange for your hard won freedom. Only a fool will believe that baloney.
The only way terrorist acts have ever been thwarted in the world has been by vigilant ordinary citizens that recognized what was happening and intervened. Creating the nastiest police state will do nothing but destroy our quality of life.
Suggesting that Americans can find alternatives to flying is a ridicules statement. The TSA has taken over our railroads too. The TSA is as evil as any terrorist.
Today the TSA bureaucrats would like another nasty airplane attack to justify their existence. They need it to keep frightening Americans into surrendering even more freedom.

Get The TSA's Filthy Hands Off My Balls!
Washington, DC-The TSA tyrants have made war on American travelers as they freely allow people flying on passports from nations unfriendly to us and dangerous violent convicted felons on our airplanes.
The TSA thugs need to target terrorists and criminals and leave law abiding Americans alone as was the intent of our Fourth Amendment to the US Constitution.
Making Americans submit to sexual groping, pornosanners and unnecessary radiation as a condition to travel in America is disgraceful. This must be stopped.
The TSA has done nothing for real protection but put on a, Theater of the Absurd, they think will dissuade criminals and give passengers a false sense of security.
Now it looks like some in Washington are hearing Americans cry foul. We must tell our politicians that we won’t trade liberty and privacy for their brand of security.
I called my Senators and told them to, “Get the TSA’s filthy hands off my balls!” I think they know that I’m somewhat unhappy.

Official Chicago Police Star Is On Its Way Out
Chicago, IL—Okay, I’ll spread a rumor! The Chicago Police Department will be changing their stars once again. Credit for starting that rumor goes to Second City Cop.
From time to time police agencies change their star of badge design. The stars get old and worn needing to be replaced. Then there is the matter of stars winding up in the hands of civilians that would use them to gain trust of their victims in order to facilitate serious crimes.
Most lost police stars are never really lost. As a policeman’s career enters the twilight stage, there is an extraordinary thing that happens. These old coppers lose their stars and usually take a three day suspension for their negligence. The reality is it’s difficult to give up the symbol of who you are.
Cops also want their children and grand children to always have possession of that symbol long after the old cop’s gone, to that great police beat in the sky. Do they really need cops in Heaven I ask? Somehow I don’t think so.
Chicago police had a great design from 1955 through 2002. That star was a downright pretty piece of artwork. At least three companies made that star, Metal Arts of New York, C.H. Hansen of Chicago and Blakington. The star was difficult to counterfeit and was extremely durable.
In 2002 Blackington was commissioned to make a new star. There offering was and is cheap looking and can’t take more than a year’s worth of use without having to be repaired or remanufactured. As cheap as that star looks, Blackington has made a fortune on them unless of course the repairs were covered by a warrantee.
I think I have the right idea for the next star design. Let’s have a rebirth of the 1955-through 2002 model! This time it should be made one third larger. That will satisfy the need to make a different design altogether. That city seal sculpture is the greatest found anywhere. The only other change is for that star to read the gender neutral term police officer rather than Patrolman, Policewoman and Matron.
The city could also save a bundle if rank was not shown on the star. They can put rank insignias on the official ID card and on the officer’s name tag or uniform. The Gold Star endowed officers want their gold so I’d let them fight out that problem.
My working Chicago police pals should get involved in this design effort. They are the ones that will be wearing whatever gets issued.

“Survivor” Producer Jailed in Wife’s murder
Rancho Palos Verdes, CA—A producer of the TV reality series Survivor was arrested as a fugitive today in his home by members of the U.S. Marshal’s Service.
Bruce Beresford Redman was arrested late this afternoon without incident pursuant to a provisional arrest request from the Mexican government.
Beresford Redman is accused in a Mexican criminal complaint of murdering his wife Monica Beresford Redman while vacationing on April 5, 2010, at the Hotel Moon Palace Nizuc,in Cancun, Quintana Roo, Mexico. Beresford Redman stands accused of killing his wife by asphyxiating her.
I have no faith in the Mexican law enforcement community to competently investigate their way out of a wet paper bag. If the courts are run like the rest of this crappy government Beresford Redman will either buy his way out or never see the light of day, or at least until the next Mexican revolution.
Beresford Redman will make an initial court appearance tomorrow in courtroom 341 of the Roybal Federal Building at 255 East Temple Street in downtown Los Angeles at 11:00 AM on November 17, 2010.
Beresford Redman will have a right to fight the extradition request but in legal circles it's doubtful he will avoid the pending legal nightmare and a miserable Mexican jail cell. Since he fled Mexico once already, it’s doubtful there will be any kind of bail release pending trial.
Here is a copy of the complaint and arrest warrant application:

A Murder In Beverly Hills is Always Big News
Beverly Hills, CA—Last night they found a Mercedes-Benz E-350 crashed into a light pole on Whittier Drive, just south of Sunset Boulevard just after midnight.
Inside the car was well-known Hollywood publicist, Ronni Chasen, 64 who was well-ventilated with five gunshot wounds. They pronounced Chasen dead on arrival at the nearby Cedars-Sinai Medical Center. Cedars-Sinai is the last stop for so many of Hollywood's rich and famous.
Police say they’re looking for a motive but they’ve confessed anything is possible. Was it road rage perhaps? Somehow this looks to me like a targeted act of revenge.
Somewhere in Chasen’s background is a sour business deal, a failed relationship or someone with a career destroyed by bad publicity. You can bet the Beverly Hills cops are going through all of Chasens’s files and computers at this hour. They will be paying very close attention to her client list.
It was not even a year ago when Chasen named senior VP of worldwide publicity at MGM. MGM was in the news recently involving the filing of a bankruptcy petition.
It’s the publicists in Hollywood that know all the dirty secrets. The publicists must be kept well-informed so they can quickly move to defuse those nasty scandals involving their clients.
To get to the bottom of this case police need to get to the bottom of just who this woman was and who she pissed off. These kinds of cases usually end quickly in an arrest.
I suspect whoever gets put in the courtroom defendant’s chair will have some a top- drawer legal and investigative team to challenge the case brought by the cops and prosecutors. STAY TUNED!
Every American Airport Has The Right To Evict The TSA
Washington, DC—The ineffective and dysfunctional TSA has turned into an rather nasty instrument of oppression against American travelers. The TSA has focused on insulting and provoking passengers rather than investigating terrorism.
If the TSA has their way, soon every airline will become bankrupt and the world’s tourism industry shut down causing millions more Americans to be unemployed.
The TSA has become over-bloated, arrogant, over-priced and downright hateful. There is not a single case of terror known to have been foiled by the TSA. American passengers have proven to be much more effective air marshals than even the few TSA air marshals flying our skies!
Congressman John Mica, (R-FL) has just reminded the heads of more than 150 airports in writing, that they have the power to evict the TSA and replace them with their own security people.
Mica says the TSA’s security program has evolved into a form of “Kabuki Theater”. Mica is the incoming chairman, of the House Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure.

TSA Thugs Can’t Make Their Own Laws—Feel Free To Resist The TSA
Washington, DC—The TSA is now threatening passengers that are pushed to the breaking point with their sexual assault searches with civil fines of $11,000.00 if they leave the screening area after they entered it. Meaning if you refuse to allow the continuation of the abuse to the TSA screener’s satisfaction you will be robbed too. They’re simply trying to end the TSA passenger resistance movement through additional unlawful intimidation.
This threat is very hollow since the TSA screeners have zero authority of arrest. Even if they had the power of arrest they would still have to have, Probable Cause to believe a crime was committed and that you committed a crime. An example would be they found weapons or explosives on you or in your carry-on baggage.
Since the TSA screeners are not trained, certified or sworn peace officers, you have every right to use force to escape their attempts to detain you. These are simply marginally trained ignorant people wearing impressive looking uniforms. They are most comparable to the Brown Shirted SA thugs of Adolph Hitler’s Third Reich.
The TSA has made their little rule they say to prevent potential terrorists from getting a peek at the procedures without continuing on. That is exactly as lame as it sounds.
The fact is the TSA screeners do not have the ability to detain anyone for any reason. A TSA screener’s demand that you remain in the screening area while they summon supervisors or even police is all bark and no bite.
If you refuse their demands to remain for additional abuse and molestation, you most certainly should refuse to show them your travel tickets or ID a second time. If you don’t you may have to engage them in a physical fight to get the IDs from their possession. They will claim you assaulted them when you tried to take your IDs from their hands.
I don’t care how the Obama Administration tries to resolve this, the Constitution has not changed and your right’s have not been surrendered that would prevent you from saying no to these thugs.
The best analogy to compare the TSA’s rule making to is, date rape. You made an agreement to fly and spend time with the TSA. It turns out TSA screener has bad breath, manners and is too sexually aggressive for your taste. You tell the screener no and he tells you that you have no choice but to submit until he’s satisfied. This is exactly what the Obama Administration is trying to do to Americans.
If this is the direction of American politicians and the bureaucrats they appoint we will have no choice but to stop them in a Civil War. Our freedom and liberty is fragile and will be gone in the blink of an eye if we are too cowardly to fight for it.

What to Do with Those Unwanted TSA, Naked X-Ray machines
Washington, DC—The politicians in our Congress never met a government Contractor whose products they did not love. It’s the contractor's contributions of course, that keep them in the Congressional gravy train for life.
Our government bought loads of these horrifically expensive, back-scatter X-Ray machines to use in the War against American Airplane Passengers. Oddly enough when Homeland Security Director Janet Napolitano unveiled the machines for the media she declined an opportunity to personally demonstrate how they would be used.
These machines need not hit the landfill. Instead they can be rerouted where they belong in the hundreds of prisons in America to be used on criminals.
I think that the special wing of Club Fed used to house corrupt politicians, government officials and lobbyists should get them as soon as possible.

Tell the TSA it’s Your Body and Your Property!
The TSA has long ago been allowed by the cowardly sheep in America to bully, intimidate and steal from passengers. The TSA has again ramped up their abuse of passengers by groping and fondling their genitals. This can happen with or without the new X-Ray naked body scanners.
Ladies if you have breast implants your local TSA screeners can be expected to share the quality of your surgeon’s work with their friends. If you’re a well known celebrity you may see your implants on TMZ.com!
Depending on how often you fly you will get an unneeded dose of radiation from TSA equipment that has not been tested for long term harmful effects. Remember, these machines have not been around long enough to study them.
Here are some sobering facts:
1. Children under 18 cannot lawfully give consent to anyone to touch their private parts. Children’s parents have no authority to consent to the groping for them unless it is for medical treatment. Local law enforcement is sworn to enforce child molestation laws even against the TSA.
2. An adult can give consent to intimate groping but who in their right mind would let some TSA loser fondle their genitals? If they grope, fondle or touch without consent this is a sexual assault and local police must investigate and take action.
3. The TSA screeners are quick to demand that passengers stand or sit in certain places as they are told not to move. The TSA screeners have no power under law to detain or arrest anyone. You are always free to leave the screening area. Their commands have no power of law beyond ordering you not to proceed to airplane boarding areas.
4. The TSA screeners are quick to demand that you not touch your property. Guess what? It’s your property and you are free to remove it at your discretion from their tables. The screeners have no authority to use force to stop you.
5. Should anyone demand your name or identification as you’re leaving the screening area, you are under no obligation to cooperate. This is also true if police become involved. If police or federal officers such as the Air Marshal service or FBI demand identification you have a right to refuse unless you are arrested for a crime. Refusal to submit to TSA tyranny is no crime, at least yet.
6. If arrested by police or federal officers you have no right to resist even an unlawful arrest. Try your case in court, not at the airport. The TSA screeners with their Gestapo like uniforms and gold badges are not law enforcement officers. They don’t have the training or the necessary certification that would bestow the power to detain or arrest anyone and seize property as evidence.
7. You may use reasonable physical force against any and all TSA screeners that assault you. You can’t however use that force on police unless they are using unreasonable force against you. Trust me, if you try to use force against police you will nearly always lose in a big way.
8. The unreasonable actions of all government agents are subject to Civil Laws. That is you may sue them over violation of your civil rights.
9. Always report TSA abuse to local police, your United States Congressman and Senators.
10. Americans don’t have to remain cowardly sheep. Failure to resist government tyranny only invites more of the same.

The True Goal of the TSA under Obama’s Control
Washington, DC—It’s no secret that the Obama Administration took a crippling beating in the Midterm Elections. The power to continue in their destruction of our economy and system of government by the Whitehouse has ended at least in the halls of our Congress.
The Executive Branch of government is still firmly under Obama’s thumb. Obama and his Czars control every move of the TSA. The bailouts aren’t over by a long shot and the TSA is the primary agent of this latest effort.
The TSA suddenly claims a need to grope, fondle and inspect the genitals and breasts of American travelers. The tools the TSA is using to allow this are fear mongering and intimidation. The TSA suggests there is no other way to “protect” American travelers.
The TSA is engaged in the bankrupting the airlines by making travelers so uncomfortable that they won’t fly. In order to keep this vital industry afloat Obama's government will step in and nationalize another industry and significant portion of the America Economy.
The perfect timing to roll out this plan was after the Socialist majority was defeated in Congress. The executive branch would not miss a stroke of its conversion to that failed Marxist model.
The world wide tourism and hospitality industries will of course suffer massive collateral damage as a result. This of course will make millions more unemployed workers destined to become entitlement addicted Socialists.
If our President and his TSA were really concerned about airline security and the protection of Americans they’d simply order all felons convicted of violent crimes and those people flying on passports from countries unfriendly to the United States off our planes. Our prisons have become fertile recruiting grounds for Muslim terrorist organizations.
They don’t want security, they only want Socialism. Barack Obama and his political party loyalists at Homeland Security are far more dangerous to America that the Taliban or al Qaeda. Obama must be stopped.

Scrap the TSA? The TSA Revolt! What’s Next?
Washington, DC—The government managed to get it all backwards. Instead of making war on terror they made war on American passengers.
Okay, we all know that terrorist and criminal acts have happened in our skies. What do we do without surrendering our dignity and freedom to stop the terror? The answer is really not that difficult.
First you disband the entire TSA. The whole outfit was created for a corrupt mission to violate the Civil Rights of Americans under our Fourth Amendment in the Bill of Rights.
The argument that Americans can avoid the warrantless searching by staying off airplanes is ludicrous. People have to travel to earn a living and many other necessities. Passengers are forced into submitting to illegal searches and that’s un-American.
Have we forgotten about the cemeteries we’ve filled with the bones of millions patriots we sent to protect our freedom including the Fourth Amendment? Instead we have acted exactly like the nations that we fought against over the past 233 years.
Here is the proper way to deal with Airline security:
You create a police force made of trained street cops. These people must be hired strictly qualifications and not through patronage or government casting couches. They should be the Air marshals and program administrators.
You have them set of the program under these simple guidelines:
All pilots must be trained and armed at all times. All vetted, trained and sworn police officers and commercial pilots, whether on or off-duty and be given full authority to fly armed and protect the planes.
Pairs of sworn police officers must roam every plane boarding area to profile passenger behavior. Street cops would know what to look for that might warrant further investigation. Federal funds should be used to hire local police not federal officers for the airports.
We must simply end allowing convicted violent felons, illegal aliens and anyone flying on a passport from an unfriendly nation to ever board our aircraft.
We can respect the Constitutional Rights of all Americans and have meaningful security at the same time.
Watch how one TSA baggage screener broke TSA rules and the law in an effort to prevent me from lawfully shooting video at LAX airport. Had she not stopped her assault on me I’d have thrown that miserable bitch down a long flight of concrete stars from the upper level of Terminal Two. She learned quickly I was serious.

The Origin of Warrantless Government Searching of Americans
Chicago, IL—I saw this coming long ago and predicted the future death of the Fourth Amendment to our Constitution. In case you never read it or have forgotten what it says, “The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.”
All agents of the government were required to keep their paws and noses out of our bodies, homes and belongings unless there was probable cause of criminal activity and a warrant. The courts would later dilute the warrant requirement if exigent circumstances suggested that involved officer safety or to prevent the destruction of evidence.
Violence happens everywhere in the world and the days when they adopted the Fourth Amendment were no exception. Back then freedom and liberty was not bartered for promised security like today.
For me side-stepping the Bill of Rights to search Americans began right after a violent and dangerous criminal, Eugene “Iceman” Lewis’ attempted his escape from a 7th floor judge’s chambers at 2600 S. California Ave in 1971.
Lewis, a well know militant Black thug was already under one well-deserved death sentence and was about to receive another for the cold-blooded killing of a Thillen’s Security guard servicing the Sebring Jukebox Company’s payroll more than a year earlier.
Lewis took a bailiff and assistant state’s attorney hostage with a gun provided by a court clerk who was enamored with the killer. She placed the gun in a hollowed out book for Lewis. Lewis was kept in the chambers handcuffed under guard by an armed bailiff. Concealed inside Lewis’ mouth was a homemade handcuff key from a ball point pen refill. He used the key to slip one wrist from the cuffs and dashed for the gun inside the book.
Lewis then disarmed the bailiff and with a revolver in each hand grabbed the hapless prosecutor and bailiff and began his walk to freedom.
An Area Four detective, Crosette Lee Hamilton heard the commotion and concealed himself behind the gray steel freight elevator outside door. He waited for the trio to pass and fired a single shot from a .38 Colt Detective Special into the back of Lewis’ head. Two uniformed officers assigned to the court from the Marquette District (010) opened fire on Lewis as he fell to the ground.
Lewis managed to wound the state’s attorney in the hand and another shot struck local lawyer, Leonard Karlin in the butt.
When we lifted Lewis’ body from the floor there was a flattened .38 standard 158 grain lead bullet on the floor, under his head. Hamilton’s bullet never even penetrated the killer’s head!
Within a few minutes of the shooting I personally saw, Black Panther, founder and now Congressman Bobby Rush was on the scene visibly angry and shaken up. To this day I believe that Rush was involved in the escape plot and was perhaps waiting in a car outside on California Ave. If Rush was an accomplice he still could be charged with felony murder of Lewis since there is no statute of limitations on that crime.
I attended the post mortem examination of Lewis and counted 22 holes from 18 gunshots. The Iceman would never hurt anyone again.
Within a day the presiding criminal judge, Joe power told me he was ordering big changes. Powers had ordered the Cook County Sheriff, Joseph I Woods to provide his police to search everyone entering the building. Power concluded that people entering the building, are doing it as a matter choice and that the search was then consensual. For the next month 35 guns per average day were taken from court visitors surprised by the search. Thousands of knives and an astronomical amount of narcotics were recovered. There were no prosecutions of these people most of which were already convicted felons. Instead we confiscated the contraband during a three-month grace period. After that arrests were made.
The Judge Power security plan spread like wildfire to courthouses all over the country. Next, cowardly government bureaucrats everywhere learned they could use the Judge Power program too.
There were a few airplane hijackings by deranged fools wanting a better life in Cuba. Soon the FAA adopted the Judge Power plan using private security providers.
The idea of these searches being consensual is pure hogwash because people are forced by law to do business with the government every day. People are ordered by jury summonses or are subpoenaed to courts and have no choice except to subject themselves to the frisking or be jailed. Others are ordered into buildings over tax matters, pensions, and permits.
As for flying on commercial aircraft there really is no other alternative for people required to fly for their jobs and families. The searches by the FAA and now TSA are simply unlawful. The courts have refused to do the right thing and outlaw the practice because they invented, promulgated and enforce this violation of American Civil Rights.
Most Americans never lived in a country where they could freely move about without being bullied, frisked, fondled and groped by government agents. The vile and un-American practice of warrantless searches has been accepted by the ignorant masses as a part of living under government.
That gun that started this whole outrage was brought into the building by a clerk of the court. It is the current routine to give all court employees the right to bypass the screening. They never fixed what was broken!
Acceptance of this tyranny does not make it right. We survived as a nation including our own Civil War for nearly 200 years without searching every American like a criminal.

Crimefile Salutes Veteran’s Day
Washington, DC—So many brave Americans have answered their call to duty to insure our Freedom and way of life. Enemies of our Constitution and Bill of Rights are everywhere including in our Whitehouse today. As these enemies work to oppress and enslave they must be stopped.
Veterans sacrificed their lives and limbs so Americans need not surrender their liberty, privacy and dignity to government tyrants and thugs.
Despots everywhere are so desperate for absolute power that there are no limits to their treachery. Stopping them has killed and maimed many millions of our military heroes in the past and will in the future.
Today is the day we honor both the veteran and the resolve we all made made to fight and die for our fellow American’s freedom.

TSA Creeps Unleash Their Own Terror on Airline Passengers
Los Angeles, CA—Benjamin Franklin said it best, “They that can give up essential liberty to purchase a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety.”
Have Americans become such cowards that they want the unemployable creeps hired by the TSA to grope and manipulate their genitals before they board airplanes?
Do Americans want to force themselves into untested radiation exposure of powerful X-Ray imaging devices? Millions of Americans must fly every working day on our commercial airlines. Nobody can say with medical certainty what the long term damage will be.
I have redundantly complained about this out-of-control agency being actually worse that the terrorists. The TSA has never stopped a single terror event despite outrageous assaults on our privacy, dignity and wallets. I’m serious when I say I’d rather take my chances with terrorists and eliminate the TSA altogether.
They still have never really established an effective program to arm pilots. We still don’t have the Federal flight Deck Officers on international flights.
The bizarre padlocked holster required for the few pilots they’ve armed must have been designed by a mentally disturbed individual with an unnatural fear of pilots.
Despite a report by the Inspector General acknowledging that the holsters are both dangerous and unnecessary the TSA Administration has still refused to scrap them.
The TSA still insists on disarming the thousands of vetted, trained cops, military and licensed private investigators that carry guns every day before they enter airplanes.
Will letting the TSA reptiles grope the genitals of American men, women and children somehow make anyone safer?
When they talk about the failure of stopping that Christmas Panty Bomber that was stopped not by the TSA, but passengers they overlook the unforgivable facts of that case.
1. The Panty Bomber was a citizen of a country unfriendly to the United States.
2. The Panty Bomber was allowed to board the plane without a passport.
The Panty Bomber failure was more about who we let fly on our planes than the inspection of our genitals.
The real fact is explosives are made of putty like materials, solids or liquid. They can be concealed in body cavities, or harmless looking items. The explosive vapor detection equipment the TSA uses is easily defeated. This material can also easily defeat the latest TSA, backscatter X-Ray equipment.
Can actual cavity searches be far behind? Call Congress and the Whitehouse today and tell them to get the TSA hand’s off our private parts. Just say no to the TSA. Always call local police if the TSA goons touch any of you private parts. They are not immune to being charged with state and local crime nor civil suits so call your lawyers too.

1. The Panty Bomber was a citizen of a country unfriendly to the United States.
2. The Panty Bomber was allowed to board the plane without a passport.
The Panty Bomber failure was more about who we let fly on our planes than the inspection of our genitals.
The real fact is explosives are made of putty like materials, solids or liquid. They can be concealed in body cavities, or harmless looking items. The explosive vapor detection equipment the TSA uses is easily defeated. This material can also easily defeat the latest TSA, backscatter X-Ray equipment.
Can actual cavity searches be far behind? Call Congress and the Whitehouse today and tell them to get the TSA hand’s off our private parts. Just say no to the TSA. Always call local police if the TSA goons touch any of you private parts. They are not immune to being charged with state and local crime nor civil suits so call your lawyers too.
