Defund the TSA!

I'm LIVID. 

“A TSA office asked the Marine to stand and walk to an alternate area, despite the fact that he physically could not stand or walk on his own. With numerous TSA officers sitting and unwilling to assist, an officer then made him remove his legs, then put them back on, only to advance to a secondary screening location where he was asked again to stand, with extraordinary difficult, while his wheelchair was examined for explosives,” [California Republican Congressman Duncan Hunter] said.

.... The incident occurred at Phoenix’s Sky Harbor airport last week, as a group of Marines was returning to San Diego.

After Words

Can states refuse the presence of the TSA?  Because I am definitely NOT going to write to my useless, non-representive U.S. Senators, only to receive their blind, deaf and dumb response(s) in a one-size-fits-all pre-written form letter.

Been there, done that.

Either these callous clods are utterly mindless, or they're sadistic. Were they unaware of the fact that they were humiliating -- in public, no less -- a Wounded Warrior, or did they derive perverse pleasure from mortifying a man who, in the dark recesses of their squalid souls, they must have sensed is a far superior human than they will ever be? Again and again, every day, we see and hear new examples of the coarsening and befouling of the American character. In a very real way, behavior like this is more threatening to our country than anything al Qaeda can do.
