A new set of posters at LAX is being dubbed “terror-veillance” as they were made to invoke terror in people instead of preventing it.
See something. Say something. Imprison innocents. Terrorize travelers.
The police want you to iWatchLA, but I won’t be. Put these posters together with the anti-terror citizen watch groups and the iwatch videos from last year, and you’re got scared citizens everywhere.
A TSA agent was arrested at LAX for reportedly shouting, “I am god and I’m in charge.” The TSA agent had just gotten off duty and was reported to be acting erratically.
During the investigation of this TSA agent, a video was found and four TSA agents were tentatively identified at a party. Those four were tested for drugs. One tested positive and was fired.
The Federal Security Director at LAX, Larry Fetters released the following statement:
“TSA’s internal affairs team discovered video evidence that potentially depicted a few members of our workforce consuming illegal drugs. TSA management at LAX immediately identified these individuals, subjected them to reasonable suspicion drug testing and terminated the one who tested positive. TSA practices a zero-tolerance policy for illegal drug use and conducts random drug and alcohol testing at over 450 airports across the country to enforce this rule. We show no leniency to employees who violate the public trust and shame the uniform that is proudly worn by 50,000 men and women in service to this nation.”
These are the highly trained and qualified individuals who you must deal with when choosing to fly. These are also the individuals who will be manning those full body scanners when they come into effect.
