Man arrested by TSA with 4th Amendment on chest says constitutional rights violated

Aaron B. Tobey, Photo Richmond Internationa AirportAuthorities involved in the arrest of a protester who removed his shirt and pants at a security checkpoint at Richmond International Airport were doing their jobs and acted appropriately, a government attorney argued Wednesday in Richmond federal court.

 

Carlotta P. Wells, an attorney for the U.S. Department of Justice, argued in favor of a motion to dismiss Aaron B. Tobey’s lawsuit, which claims his constitutional rights were violated. Wells said Tobey had made his point by removing his shirt to display words from the Fourth Amendment written on his torso but went too far when he disobeyed a command to pass through a security scanner.

 

But Anand Agneshwar, an attorney representing Tobey in his lawsuit against airport and federal officials, said the 21-year-old Charlottesville man obeyed the commands of authorities. Agneshwar said it was the authorities who went too far by detaining Tobey for 90 minutes or longer with his hands cuffed behind his back.

 

“This was one long process to determine if this gentleman was a security risk,” Agneshwar told U.S. District Judge Henry E. Hudson.

Judge sides with TSA vs. naked man

Man who stripped naked as a personal protest against security screenings found guilty in civil case filed by TSA. | [He] faces a $500 fine.

excerpt

Now, two years later, a judge has sided with the TSA. Brennan faces a $500 fine.

"I will not pay a fine to make this go away," he said.

Brennan plans to appeal.

"I didn't take off my clothes to pay a fine," he said. "I took them off to make a point."

Who  would  want  to  fly  now  a  days  with  security  (if  you  want  to  call  it  that  -  I  call  it  harassment)   pulling  tricks  like  this  on  people.  It's  damn  humiliating,  to  say  the  least...   He  doesn't  look  like  a  security  risk  to  me.  The  things  the  airport  security  are  getting  away  with  go  far  beyond  just  being  security  people.  They  are  acting  like  Nazi's  and  loving  every  bit  of  it!!!!
