Tyrannical TSA Ignores Federal Law, the Constitution, and Direct Instructions from Congress; Creates Secret, Illegal Database on Travelers

Story dated 21 June 2005

The TSA "collected extensive personal information about airline passengers although Congress told it not to and it said it wouldn't . . . A Transportation Security Administration contractor used three data brokers to collect detailed information about U.S. citizens who flew on airlines in June 2004 in order to test a terrorist screening program called Secure Flight, according to documents that will be published in the Federal Register this week. The Privacy Act of 1974 prohibits the government from keeping a secret database."

Okay, why haven't arrests been made? Don't we live in a nation of law? If you or I had violated federal law by accident we would be arrested. If you love you freedom, you need to see to it that the government cannot get away with this sort of thing. Write your Representative, your Senators, the Department of Justice. Demand that the people within the TSA responsible for this decision are arrested and tried. This is ridiculous. Where is my Republic? Do we even have a Constitution anymore?
