TSA goons steal woman’s shoes, bracelet at BWI

In the never-ending saga of TSA theft and stupidity — and did I say theft? — we have the latest episode (that we know of): at Baltimore-Washington International Airport, the goons spied yet another tasty treat they wanted to sample. So they pretended that said items were dangerous and confiscated them — er, sorry, encouraged the passenger to give them up. (As we know, since they tell us all the time, especially at their main propaganda organ, they don’t confiscate anything.) From the story in the Baltimore Sun: 

We Live In A Fucking Police State

We live in a fucking police state. I don't care if you don't get it, I don't care if you're too dense to see what's going on around you, I don't care if you're in denial. Your thickheadedness doesn't change the facts.

I will repeat, for the umpteenth time: A police state doesn't exist only when everyone is arrested; a police state exists when everyone CAN be arrested. 

Give to TSA Watch

The fundraising drive at TSA Watch has been stuck at $6,921 for weeks. The TSA is sexually assaulting people at airports in this country every day. We and many other organizations have been documenting it for years. I don't know what else people need to know in order to care.

Oh, wait a minute -- for some people, getting robbed is more serious than getting sexually assaulted. Okay, fine. The TSA is robbing people at airports in this country every day.

As I say so often here at TSA News, you can’t make this stuff up. 

Morons on parade: TSA steals “grenade-shaped” perfume bottle

I can't keep up with all these stories. They come too fast and furious, one more idiotic than the next. Although there is sometimes method to the TSA's madness, as in this case where the employees clearly wanted to steal somebody's expensive perfume.

TSA wrecks $20,000 cello bow

As I've said, I'm slowly transferring all my 250+ posts from TSA News over to here. I've been writing for and editing TSA News for almost two years (anniversary in November). But since it requires so much time and I have little to no help with it, plus I'm politically active in other ways, I can't keep up with managing two blogs. Here's a post from February 13, 2013:

TSA, Outdoing Its Own Stupidity At Every Turn

Hate to break it to ya, blue-shirted wonders, but these aren't real guns. They're Chanel -- or Chanel knock-off -- shoes.
