Oh this article is so full of Bullock its not even funny, and i will agree with poster about this being written by PR folk to try and deflect that bad press there getting from the idaho incident and was probably written by Nico. If the writer is truely a ex-leo he must have been a pretty bad one if he left a job with 10 years seniority to work for the gubamit for the low pay they get paid.

I did send AOL a nice little note about that article, lets see if anything becomes of it.

Its just makes me wonder why TSO's think that the general public is just going to roll over for them and do what they want when they cant have the common courtesy to ask in a calm voice rather then bark, yell and force compliance through fear and intimidation. If you are nice to me i will be nice back its common courtesy, but if you tell me to give you respect your not getting anything but your attitude back in your face. Since most screeners are barking when i go through they dont get squat as my BP is going up because of there attitude and lack of proper customer service.

The general public just needs to start filing more criminal complaints againist TSOs for there behavior, and not through TSA, but through LEOs. IE Sexual assault for pat-downs and gropes, and for the famous "do you want fly today" that one you need to scream bloody murder for a LEO and then submit criminal complaints for them making a terroistic threat and for assault (you dont have to touch someone for it to be assault just have them feel like there about to be harmed, its battery if they touch you.) Then if one of them ever grabbed me its not going to be pretty.

That should get Kippie attention when screener's end up in jail and the other talking heads have to spin it and cant.
