Airport passenger screener charged in distributing child pornography

By John Shiffman

Inquirer Staff Writer

A passenger screener at Philadelphia International Airport is facing charges that he distributed more than 100 images of child pornography via Facebook, records show.

Federal agents also allege that Transportation Safety Administration Officer Thomas Gordon Jr. of Philadelphia, who routinely searched airline passengers, uploaded explicit pictures of young girls to an Internet site on which he also posted a photograph of himself in his TSA uniform.

Seething, but not shocked. I do want to shower an "official" with flowers and kisses someday. I really, really do.

Why do they call him a "passenger screener" when they should call him a "TSA Agent"

Those porno scanners keep images - right? Pot, Kettle, Black!

The TSA can be expected to be uninstalling all those DVD burners, as we speak. You would have thought they would have learned their lesson over the Manning affair. :rolleyes:

The TSA needs to be abolished and air security left up to the 2 parties involved the flyer and the airline.

A free market in Air security (http://www.freemarketfan.com/2010/11/free-market-in-air-security.html)

And road and rail travel is next. As if you can fly a bus into a skyscraper. As if it would do the building any great harm if you did. As if you could steer a train someplace other than where there is rail. As if you could get from the train to the locomotive cab to even discover there's no steering wheel.

This insanity needs to stop.

Damnit, I wish my American Government class wasn't online. We had to post on a debate forum what we thought of TSA security procedures. I was the only one out of a class of 20 who voiced any dissent against the TSA. We even had one person in the class who worked for the TSA and he wrote some long triad on boohoo, poor him and having to put in long hours and the glares of people who he just wants to heroically keep safe.

Man I wish I could grill this along with twenty other stories and items I linked to of how corrupt and useless the TSA is.

That is why we have to stop acting as if there will be some huge "awakening".

Let another "terrorist" attack, real or manufactured, take place and the number will go up to 1 in a 100,000.

"We", meaning the remnant of patriots, have to get it through our heads that "the people" will be dragged along to freedom, kicking and screaming and fighting all the way, by us, or we can continue to mutter into our collective beards and wish that things would change.
