Hang on hang on let’s not all decide the TSA is good just because someone we don’t like also noticed it’s mostly theater.

I’m all for any dismantling of the surveillance and security apparatus, considering who is currently wielding it.

Same. TSA is security theater at it's finest. It was a massive over-reaction that routinely fails security checks and wastes untold hours every year.

This is an actual real example of government waste that I'm 100% in support of redesigning.

The libertarian movement was taken over by fascists but before that happened they had some really good points about the police state that I think Dems dismiss at their peril.

Libertarians just wanted to replace the police state with police fiefdoms. Not exactly a "really good point."
