Nice to see you here, Fisher1949!

I always look forward to your posts an updates.

Glad to see you're keeping a master list of the growing misdeeds coming out of TSA.

 

So glad to see that many of the people charged with protecting us are thugs. Hopefully they'll all enjoy a nice stay in jail.

 

Thanks for the constant updates! I've stickied both of your threads.

 

Doing my homework on particular stories related to prior assault victims, this Ket was curious to find all the ACLU links to its story collection broken. I recall this list being publicized. At first I thought they were simply expired links, as originating from other sources, but then I went to the source and all the links on the ACLU's own site are also inoperable.

More to come...

 

Probably just a temporary problem considering that it was one of their more popular pages. Meanwhile, you can view it out of Google"s cache:

When ACLU get's their page fixed, this will get you there (plus some other info)

I may try the OIG, since my police case is languishing-- effectively preventing me from going public. The Prosecutor, of course, waits for the police charge.
This much good about California I'll say: The DA by SFO welcomed reports of TSA violation.

Everyone keeps directing me to the ACLU. Them and $4 will get me a coffee...

 

The links at the ACLU site may have been more important after Thanksgiving than they are now. At the time it was one of the few sources of stories about passenger abuse. Since then, TSA has done a commendable job of supplying us with hundreds of more detailed stories and videos.

BTW, agree that ACLU is useless as a consumer advocate group. They only seem to go for the the fringe cases that are so outrageous that ACLU gets a lot of free press, and hence donations. A totally self-serving organization.

 

I am going to unsticky this thread. Everything in it should be in the Master Lists which are the subject of another stickied thread.

I will also place a link to this thread in the Master List thread.

 

Good idea. It may have been confusing to new readers.
