New Bill Looks to Implement TSA Security Measures at Bus and Train StationsBy Alek Hidell The bill was introduced by Senator John Thune of South Dakota. The bill entails the implementation of a risk-based security model for trains and buses. It also allots money for the expansion of the TSA to work in nearly every bus and train station in America. While this appears to be a government takeover of private transportation, officials claim otherwise. This is very much not creating for bus or rail transportation the [security] model that exists for aviation, stated Frederick Hill, a spokesman for the Senate committee governing the proposal. It should be noted thatsince the fifteen years of intense screening for terrorists began, the TSA has done little other than harass the elderly and handicapped who have a hard enough time at airports, as well as blatantly discriminate against Muslim travelers. The move to implement government security in private transportation facilities is nothing more than an attempt to document and control the movements of free citizens. Homeland Security would undoubtedly extend the no-fly list to include buses and trains. The mission of the TSA is to ensure freedom of movement for people and commerce; the implementation of such heavy security protocols at airports, and soon to be bus stops and train stations, does nothing but encroach upon the freedom of movement enjoyed by citizens. Just last year, the TSA was tested by the Department of Homeland Security. They found that out of 70 attempts to smuggle contraband past screeners, they were successful 67 times. Thats a 95% failure rating. If this is what is happening on a daily basis around the country, when combined with the fact that the TSA has never caught a terrorist, it makes you wonder why they need to exist and put additional strain on the American tax payer. The bill does not seem to include information as to where the additional funds for expansion of the TSA would come from. As it stands, 80% of the TSA budget is spent operating in airports. Only 2% is currently spent on other forms of transportation. Implementing such drastic security measures in two completely new modes of travel, will undoubtedly increase the TSAs budget by hundreds of millions of dollars per year. The expansion of the TSA budget doesnt take into consideration the continued staffing issues and other financial shortfalls the agency has been battling in recent years. With no results to show for the billions spent so far, how can the Senators who proposed this measure or the Department of Homeland Security for that matter justify such an unnecessary and unwanted expansion of power? The TSA is a perfect example of a government grown out of control. An expansion of the agency would do little to protect us from terrorism, rather,only adding to the growing surveillance state that has encompassed us. Sources: Bloomberg, The Free Thought Project.

American taxpayers are NOT going to approve this expenditure when the government is already twenty trillion dollars in the black, and there have been ZERO terrorist events on trains and/or buses in this country..So expect a false flag terrorist event, put on by your government utilizing their imported terrorists, to occur soon on a train and/or bus. Congress will then have the validation they need to pay off their pay to players. Officially called private/public partnerships. The fact that theres zero comments to this article, just goes to show how sleepy the population in America is. Its going to be quite a shock when the sh*t hits the fan and they wake up to The New World Order Amerika. Hey Senator John Thune of South Dakota, SMD!!!!!
