I'm one who sees Homeland Security and the TSA as the the American Nazi
apparatus.

Almost totally useless in protecting  anything but their own ass, but
very good at destroying our once constitutionally guaranteed liberty's. 
I fear  for my  grand kids.

Anybody who thinks HS or TSA is a good thing for America is definitely
walking around "Up and Locked".
