STL Terminal #2 Closes for 30 Minutes Due to Security Breach

KSDK (30 May 2012): Security screening halted in Terminal 2 at Lambert - St. Louis International Airport

So it took them 30 minutes to pick their noses & decide they didn't need to locate the guy?

For whatever it's worth, this was the location (airport & terminal) where my wife was groped under her bra. The morons at this terminal were the final straw -- the reason why we are not flying today. When we returned home, we canceled all of our pending Southwest itineraries and gave away our accumulate Southwest vouchers & award trips, 13 trips total. Screw these assholes -- they can rot in (expletive deleted).

 

not rot. flagrare, Mike, flagrare

 

Actually I do have a video of TSA screeners blocking the exit next to the checkpoint.

And neither the TSA screener or officer Smith of STL police department liked my photography. Critics everywhere.

 

Should have asked if you were being detained.

 

Unlawful detainment/kidnapping, and Blocking of a fire exit looks like the smurfgropen need to get a shiney set of braclets and put in a confined space where they have no control.

 

Actually Detective Sergeant Williams specifically told me to stop videotaping or else I'd be arrested for "interference". I had a lengthily conversation with him & federal security director William Switzer after that. I berated them both.

 

You should forward this story to Carlos Miller (carlosmiller@magiccitymedia.com). His Photography is not a Crime blog at Pixiq will attract a lot more attention than the locals ever wanted.

 

Good for you! Thank you for defending and upholding our rights!

 

Of course not. Stupid people doing stupid things always complain when someone documents their stupidity for posterity.

And it's hard to beat the TSA for doing stupid things. When they're not being stupid, they're being evil.

 

Did either admit exceeding their authority? You should file a complaint with the standards folks of the police department involved.

 

Their response will be "DILLIGAF?"

Several years ago when one of the basket cases working for TSA in Terminal #1 called the cops on me, I did exactly that. I even had it filed with the Lambert Airport PD by one of the leading civil rights attorneys in the St. Louis area. The police department just ignored it -- didn't even acknowledge receiving it.

 

That's Chicago PD's standard response to Constitutional issues.
