And you didn't bounce his butt off his supervisor? A TSO that said crap like that to me would be picking his teeth off the floor and I'd take my chances with the jury.

I read that particular post, and I'd say give it a shot there Ayn. When you get out, let us know how that experience worked for you. Pictures would be great, but you would need to make sure that someone else is the one taking them.

At least your comments aren't automatically deleted, unlike mine. I guess accusing him of being a tool of the american neo-nazi-zionist cabal didn't go down so well. SO much for the so called american democracy and freedom of speech.

Would it be correct to infer from your comments, TSSCreenerRon, that it is a criminal offense punishable by prison time, to state one's opinion at a TSA checkpoint that "[screeners] are liable to arrest for child pornography the rest of the TSA is liable for conspiracy to commit or aiding and abetting"?

That's weird, PhlyingRPh. PV is paid for with government funds. Where do they get off censoring a statement that is not salacious or generally offensive? It's not like it's somebody's private blog.

I've asked that question several times.

Government sponsored, Tax Payer funded and a government employee violating his oath to defend the Constitution.

Do they get to pick and choose which parts they will defend?

Seems Blogdad Bob should be dismissed for cause.

My thought exactly. Thank you.

I would infer Ron's position to be that any criticism of TSA procedures or personnel ought to be a criminal offense.

And he's not alone.

I think he's saying I will be arrested if I report TSOs to law enforcement.

Is that what you're saying Ron?

From the "Will Children Be Screened" spin thread comments over at PV:

Ha. The FT folks think I'm having a breakdown. Actually, I'm sitting here with a nice cup of coffee and I've got my i-Pod set to play all Antonio Carlos Jobim songs. Life is grand. I just need a beach and some palm trees.

Oh, Hi Blogdad Bob. Welcome to FT. Where some think you are always close to a "sonny beach." ;) Say, it's Friday afternoon, why aren't you posting a MMW scan picture of a naked cute little puppy? :rolleyes:

LessO2 May 22, 2009 1:54 pm

Seriously....are you surprised that cherishes its PR as much as the TSA monitors FT? Is it that surprising?

Sorry, but that's a bit of a 'duh.'

Knowing the TOS of FT, Blogdad Bob signed on as a member so that we could not describe him the way he so richly deserves. Even though he's made less than 10 posts, all of them when he was new to FT, and hasn't posted once since then, we cannot flame him to a well deserved crisp because he is a member of FT.

Ron, everyone's still waiting for you to tell us what you mean with "when you get out".

Ron...?
