NYC Rally for Airport Sanity & Security

This message is from NYC residents trying to nullify the TSA's security and restore Fourth Amendment and due process rights. Please give it your attention. Thank you.

----

As a NYC resident who lived through the attacks on 9/11, I am tired of politicians exploiting it for government power grabs and excess. And I am not alone.

Join New York City residents as they speak out against the TSA's extremism and support the nullification movement afoot in Texas and Utah to criminalize the TSA's pat-downs and invasive security measures. (They violate the Fourth Amendment and have an ineffectiveness rate of 70%!)

A coalition of Republicans, Democrats and independents have united to support legislation banning whole image body scanners and invasive pat-downs throughout NYC.

In November 2010, NYC Councilman David Greenfield and 10 other Councilmembers proposed legislation to do just that. Unfortunately, the City Council never introduced it. (Hence, the public pressure.)

While there is no need to check the underpants of our grandmothers, mothers or children there is a need for sound, common sense security at public portals. The TSA has failed in this regard and if Senator Schumer has his way, whole image body scanners will make their way into our railways and subways.
