Financial Terrorism

Dana Mathewson

Can you believe this? Well, these days you probably can...

"An astounding Department of Justice threat to cancel airline flights to and from Texas, in addition to underhanded lobbying by TSA representatives, has killed efforts in the state to pass HB 1937, a bill that would have made invasive pat downs by TSA agents a felony.

HB 1937, a bill that would have made it “A criminal act for security personnel to touch a person’s private areas without probable cause as a condition of travel or as a condition of entry into a public place,” was headed for an imminent Senate vote in Texas having already passed the House unanimously 138-0, before the federal government stepped in to nix the legislation."

A NOTE FROM TIM:

Why wouldn't the TSA simply tell Texas that any blood will be on their hands? Could it be that they fear there will be no blood, and that this law would show the futility of their agency? If enhanced security screening worked it would be easy to prove with one state out of the program; every terrorist would fly into Houston or Dallas first.

Me thinks someone wants the hands of Uncle Sam on our junk!

Texas should have gone forward and filed for an injunction at the same time. The old Texas spirit just ain't what it used to be!
