Everyone email or call the TSA?

What, if anything, would happen if we all picked one day to email and/or call the TSA (http://www.tsa.gov/travelers/custome...rial_1029.shtm) to complain about this travel theatre nonsense (freedom baggies, shoe carnival, etc.)?

I think we should be a level above the TSA.

Write your congresspeople. Get the DHS eliminated.

Any discourse with the TSA is a complete waste of time. It's like asking muggers to please stop mugging you.

Contact your representatives. It's the only way this disease of an agency will be removed from our airports.

They would assume that the sudden flood of emails was a denial-of-service attack and would simply shut their network down.

And then probably trace your/our IP and accuse us all of a wire-crime.

Nothing would happen.

Bureaucracies thrive on paperwork.
