New legislation would abolish government involvement in airport security

Paul Joseph Watson
Infowars.com

Thursday, May 3, 2012

Senator Rand Paul has issued a press release in which he vows to lead the charge to “end the TSA” and put a stop to the needless and humiliating groping of toddlers and grandmothers.

 

Earlier this year, Paul was detained by the TSA after refusing to submit to an invasive pat down after already having passed through a body scanner. The incident prompted national headlines and caused the Senator to miss his flight.

“It’s time to END the TSA and get the government’s hands back to only stealing our wallets instead of groping toddlers and grandmothers,” says Paul in the statement.

The accompanying article sent out to Campaign for Liberty members encourages recipients to sign a petition in support of Rand Paul’s ‘End the TSA’ bill.

The legislation would forcibly privatize the TSA and kick government out of airport security entirely. A recently passed bill actually allows airports to replace TSA screeners with private security but they have to go through a complex TSA permission process to do so, meaning only a handful of small airports have applied to evict the TSA.

Financial contributions are also being sought to launch a “full, targeted media campaign to convince representatives and senators to either get on board or be held responsible for this continuing outrage.” A previous ‘End the TSA Money Bomb’ started by Congressman Ron Paul following his son’s treatment at the hands of the federal agency has already raised over $1.6 million dollars.

The email points out that the TSA’s invasive and dangerous body scanners have been proven to be completely useless, most recently by engineer Jon Corbett who was able to fool the device by simply sowing an object into a side pocket.

The email lists a handful of recent TSA outrages amidst the deluge that occur on a weekly basis.

- A TSA agent patting down a young girl at New Orleans’ Louis Armstrong International Airport in 2011. The video shows a cooperative family, and when the girl’s mother asks, “Can’t you just re-scan her?” the agent replies, “No” and proceeds to grope the poor child;

- A cancer survivor in Charlotte was forced to remove a prosthetic breast;

- A young mother of a two-week-old infant in Florida was harassed to open the bottles of baby formula she was traveling with on her flight, which would have spoiled the only food available to the infant;

- Detroit TSA officers ignored a man’s warning about a colostomy bag, breaking it and forcing him to board a plane covered in urine.Read the full text of Rand Paul’s statement below. Donate to the ‘End the TSA’ cause by clicking here.

Sometimes our liberty slips away silently, and it is almost hard to notice what went wrong and where. The one fortunate thing about the TSA is that they certainly don’t fit that definition.

The American people shouldn’t be subjected to harassment, groping, and other public humiliation simply to board an airplane. As you may have heard, I have some personal experience with this, and I’ve vowed to lead the charge to fight back.

Please read the email below from my friend Matt Hawes at Campaign for Liberty. Campaign for Liberty is leading the fight to pressure Congress to act now and restore our liberty. It’s time to END the TSA and get the government’s hands back to only stealing our wallets instead of groping toddlers and grandmothers.

I hope you will join Campaign for Liberty in this fight.

In Liberty,

Senator Rand Paul

      promises, promises. What are they really worth during an election season? How long do we choose to listen to this rhetoric BS without demanding accountability.

      Please get a clue. What changes has Ron Paul brought about since his many years as a civil servant?

      Nothing is going to change with Ron Paul or Mitt Romney. Do you get it yet?

      Anonymous, if you read the document more carefully you would have seen it was RAND Paul…NOT RON Paul that is trying to make changes. Come On People, we can make a change. Let’s stand up and support this movement.

      Good for Senator Paul! It’s about time someone in the Government took a stand against these Gestapo tactics!

      You folks you drink the lemonade, are complete idiots. Who cares if its Romney or Paul or Obama. You really think Paul is gonna win and change everything? Really? What has happened to other folks who attempt to change things (e.g., JFK, Saddam Hussein, Sonny Bono and many other whistleblowers and truthsayers)?

      The system sucks! And electing Ron Paul is NOT gonna change that…it will continue to suck. And how much power do you think a president has??

      Ron Paul is the good cop in the simple game known as “good cop bad cop”. Ron Paul is acting this all out for you. How about that? And he’s doing it at the request of his puppetmasters. Why is he doing it? Well my guess its payback for Rand Paul getting elected. How about that….another Paul in politics. I guess they’re gonna save the world….right?

      You guys who are lapping this propaganda and circus show with Ron Paul are, plain and simple, idiots and fools. Get a clue.

      Of course, this is all my opinion…but I usually see things for what they are. Never ever sink your hopes into a single man…let alone trust him. Its a fools game.
