So now the DHS has naked pictures of me!

Again.. the xray is COMPLETELY optional. Do not let them tell you otherwise. If they insist, insist they're wrong. TSA are thugs, plain and simple. I fly dozens of times a year, I do not let those bastards intimidate me. If they do, sue them. The only way these thugs will stand down is if we all stand up.

Not to mention, if you fly as often as I do, it becomes a serious health concern.

And it's not only at airports. So many, many tourist attractions now have xray machines and metal detectors and LEO's that are going to ensure that you Comply!!! as you enter. They are NOT just looking for weapons or dangerous implements. Going over to Ellis Island earlier this year I had the first ORDER to put my wallet in the tray that went through the xray machine. When I had a surprised look on my face, the guard said, "You'd be surprised what we find in wallets." Drugs was the first thing she said.

Yea, I'm cynical. Yea, I'm suspicious of this kind of thing. But it really, really feels like we DO live right next to a police state where EVERYTHING we do is going to be how THEY want us to do it. Seems only a matter of time til they just "drop" the public safety issue and come right out and order us to COMPLY OR ELSE!

Meanwhile the elites (See the post in the Forbidden Zone about mortgaging our children and my link to an article in The Nation) get away with taking all of our money. Is it any wonder I no longer think there's any use to vote or be involved in politics at all?
