Police State

TSA assaults woman dying of leukemia.
"But tyranny’s arbitrariness kicked in on her flight from Seattle to Hawaii, when the tubes and bandages that had previously passed unnoticed suddenly snapped the Gestapo to brutal attention: "she received a full pat-down [sic for ‘sexual assault’] in the security line … and had to lift her shirt" – ponder that for a moment: the federal government ordering a taxpayer to expose herself. Does despotism come any more debauched? – "and pull back bandages so agents could get a good look. … Dunaj said a female agent performed the pat-down [sic for ‘sexual assault’] and asked her to lift up her shirt after feeling the tubes going into Dunaj's chest and abdomen."
Yet this blatantly dictatorial, criminally callous atrocity isn’t what agitated the long-suffering Ms. Dunaj. Rather, "she said everyone else in line got a look, too. ‘My issue is: It was in front of everyone, and everyone was looking at me like I was a criminal or like I was doing something wrong,’ Dunaj [said]…’It shouldn't have been in front of everyone.’" No, it shouldn’t have been at all.
Recall that after annihilating liberty, the TSA substitutes a few measly "rights"; one of them is its version of "privacy": "All passengers have important rights during a pat-down [sic for ‘sexual assault’]. You have the right to request the pat-down [sic for ‘sexual assault’] be conducted in a private room … "
And what happened when our terminally ill passenger "requested" just that? Our Masters refused. After all, what "rights" they grant, they can also revoke – precisely why the State hypes "civil rights" while liberty knows only "inalienable" ones. Ms. Dunaj "said her suggestion for a more private pat-down was dismissed. ‘I asked them if they thought [the checkpoint] was an appropriate location, and they told me that everything was fine,’ she said."
Remember those bags of saline? Yep: they formed as irresistible a target for the TSA’s psychopaths as Ms. Dunaj herself. "She said another agent punctured one of the saline bags she was carrying, ruining it." Perhaps her imminent death has exhausted Ms. Dunaj’s outrage, because rather than berating the ruffian responsible, she simply tolerated the malfeasance. "I didn't want to start getting upset" – "Start"? Heck, I’d have been screaming and throwing things by now – "and swearing and causing more of a scene or issue … But it definitely wasn't handled properly." That receives my vote for Understatement of the Year."
Disgusting.

Government is taking away passing zones.
