Prison Industries: ''Don t Let Society Improve or We Lose Business''

Dina Rasor, Truthout: ''This is an industry that needs misery, long sentences, rounded-up undocumented immigrants and increasing crime to flourish.

TSA abuses another disabled child ''terrorist'' suspect

Authority!
by Timothy J Taylor

04/29/12

The latest incident last Monday involves the unreasonably aggressive screening of Dina Frank, a 7-year-old girl with cerebral palsy, at the hands of TSA thugs at JFK International Airport which caused her family to miss their flight to Florida. This little child is unable to pass through airport metal detectors without setting off alarms because she walks with metal leg braces and crutches. The condition puts her at the mercy of the TSA thugs who insist without reason or exception that she must undergo their patented pat-down assault and battery on a baby procedure...
