The look of the woman in the article is priceless

However, this is unacceptable:

According to Naccara, the SPOT program has resulted in the arrest of more than 50 people for having fake IDs, entering the country illegally or drug possession.

None of the above have anything to do with aviation safety or security.

Some sheeple will go along with this, but I am going to suspect about 10-15% of people, already fed up with the TSA, will return very hostile answers to these questions. Whereas I am not going to be rude to a screener who asks me questions, I am not going to answer - my answers will be fairly standard: "sorry, but that is not your concern and I am not going to answer your questions"

If I am sent to a LEO for interrogation for refusing to answer, I will be contacting the ACLU and I expect them to persue this...if they don't step up to the plate this time, they have become a useless organization and we need new people on the scene who are willing to stand up for privacy and liberty.

A big to this...we need to clean this "SPOT" up.
