Don't forget to buy your gear and ID badges!
Identify yourself NOW with this Counter Terrorism Homefront Security Gear!!!
Now, you are the last line of defense against those who would seek to destroy our way of life. Every freedom fighter is called upon to volunteer their eyes and ears to defeat these enemies. Counter Terrorism Homefront Security is a non-governmental volunteer civilian force that lawfully seeks to identify and report potential acts of terrorism. It conveys no authority given or implied. If you can see them, they can see you.
You are the “U” in USA, identify yourself!

I was in the court that thought that incident, while in poor judgment in this era of live internet ATC feeds, was not that big of a deal.

Never got to talk on the radio from the tower, but I did when in a GA aircraft plenty of times.
I guess my whole point here in starting this thread is that in spite of all the chest-thumping by the TSA, the checkpoint is not the Front Line of the War On Terror™ they like to pretend it is.
