Richmond Times-Dispatch

Authorities 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!!!!
The zionists want all Americans looking up each others but holes and chasing snipes (AlQueda) while they continue to loot America and consolidate control over this country by taking all the Congressmen to Israel for indoctrination (and fun and games---sex??)
They continue laugh while we chase each others tales!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
