Hands Off, TSA!

Wouldn’t it be nice to slap the fondling hands of TSA thugs? As many more Americans now begin to question the horrid intrusiveness of TSA procedures, a bill proposed by Congressman Ron Paul looks to curb the violation of personal privacy at America’s airports.

Paul’s proposed legislation, known as H.R. 6416 or the American Traveler Dignity Act aims to make clear that TSA agents are not immune from US law when it comes to physical contact with others and would effectively subject them to the same laws and standards as everyone else.

In essence, the TSA is a useless, unconstitutional federal mess and should be put out of our misery and abolished. Americans need not sacrifice their individual liberty for a false sense of security; that’s how big government gets its weight. The validity of our rights is not meant to rest at the subjective discretion of government.

The federal government and its TSA henchmen think it can rob us of our dignity. As Congressman Ron Paul recently put it in a recent address on the House floor; to them, we are like mere cattle meant to be herded. And until something can be done such as the passage of Dr. Paul’s proposed bill, the TSA will continue to violate our rights, our dignity, and our pants.

Ron Paul Takes on the TSA

Horowitz Fan Refuses to Debate Wes Messamore

As many of you know, I recently penned a piece to correct the eight egregious errors of an inaccurate hit piece on Ron Paul which went so far as to refer to the gentle, even grandfatherly Congressman from Texas as "an abomination who should be cast out of decent society."

The author of that piece -- Calvin Freiburger -- ended up responding with another piece of his own (There's the link, Calvin -- no accusing me of keeping your rebuttals under wraps. It's right there for everyone to visit, read, and draw their own conclusions.)

Now I'm not a fan of wasting hours responding back and forth five times, playing blog tag, and having to chase down every last evasion, obfuscation, equivocation, dropped context, (etc.) that people with flimsy arguments and bankrupt ideologies are usually guilty of committing to appear like they are engaging ideas, when they are actually evading them.

Good News!

Ron Paul just got a new job in Congress.
