I can post these in sections since each one is nearly a page in Word or if you have a favorite file sharing site I’ll upload the Word document there.
I’ll post the first section below. Let me know if this is not what you’re looking for and I won’t tie up thread space with the rest. |

Well..........TV, at bottom, is about entertainment. Informing viewers is secondary.
Every time there is an incident, many in the press hound TSA and Congress people to "do something" about it. More often than not, the right answer is to do nothing. |

Great Minds Think Alike
I've done something similar with www.tsa-abuses.info
I haven't gone back in time to list historic abuses as the sheer volume of new abuses continues to blow my mind. Also, my format is quite different. I try to link to representative source material, and add my comments. Best of luck with yours, I'm adding a link within the next 60 seconds. Frank |
