TSA says on its blog: "If you are taking pictures at or near the checkpoint, don't be surprised if someone (TSA, airport police, or a curious passenger) asks you what you're up to. We don't prohibit public, passengers or press from photographing, videotaping, or filming at screening locations. You can take pictures at our checkpoints as long as you're not interfering with the screening process or slowing things down.
"We also ask that you do not film or take pictures of our monitors. However, while the TSA does not prohibit photographs at screening locations, local laws, state statutes, or local ordinances might. Your best bet is to call ahead and see what that specific airport's policy is."
why should i care about a woman who got pissed because a security guard touched her in a way her husband never would....and she's ashamed she enjoyed it...
Normally, I'm all for "eff da TSA", its a joke, complete waste of tax payer dollars, and possibly a regular violator of constitutional rights, but this family would seem to be the Westboro Baptists of air travel. I find myself in the strange position of possibly having to defend the TSA on this one.
Which brings in an interesting twist: TSA drama seems to be a family affair. In January, Ryan posted a similar video with his father as the subject of a TSA interrogation.
Watch the video of the father being interrogated below. Be forewarned, there is graphic language in the video:
"It's going on YouTube, I was waiting for this," says the son after being confronted by a TSA officer for videotaping. The TSA employee then tries to cover the camera with a screening bin.
"I was prepared all day today," he adds, going on to compare the TSA to the Gestapo, the secret police of Nazi Germany.
"You are either going to be molested or micro-waved like a TV dinner," he says several times as if having rehearsed his spiel.
I took a ride on the latest series of bullet train in January. If everywhere I wanted to go was less than 500 kilometres away I'd never set foot on a plane again.
