Once again, here we go. You STILL believe you have citizens' rights once in the hands of this nasty agency? NO! You are no longer in America, once you have stepped upon Airport Soil. Different country entirely, and they can and will prove it, using you as the P.E. (Public Example.)
They handcuffed you and drove you downtown NICELY?!??!! Are you LISTENING TO YOURSELF???
Somebody wrongfully handcuffs this old guy had better be ready for years (if that's what it takes) of litigation. And a few minutes in the alley (all I want is ONE kneecap, and I ain't particular which side.)
Yep. Can and would.
Thing is, I'm not dumb enough to go to airports any more.
