Rather Queer That No Charges Were Filed
Apr 15, 2015 Commentary
The people working for the TSA are government agents who have too much power and who abuse the traveling public. Like many government agents they are protected from prosecution, not because there is some law or immunity but because other government agents refuse to go after them for doing illegal things.
A pair of TSA agents were caught in a scheme that involved the groping of male travelers by a gay TSA agent. The agent would signal a female agent, his accomplice, who would manipulate the machine to cause it to give a reason for further screening. This would allow the gay agent to grope the male he found attractive. He used the palm of his hand to grope the genitals of these men.
The scheme was reported by a whistle blower and investigated. The acts were witnessed by several people involved in the investigation. The TSA agents were fired as a result of their deeds.
The kicker though is that the prosecutor (a government agent) refused to file charges stating there was not enough evidence to get a conviction. The things were witnessed by the people investigating and there was enough evidence to fire them but they can’t be convicted?
Sounds like hogwash. You can bet your six that if you had done something at the TSA checkpoint this prosecutor would file charges no matter what the odds of getting a conviction.
TSA is a worthless agency and the entire thing should be contracted out. Private contractors would do a much better job than protected government employees who will not be prosecuted for the crimes they commit.
I know that if this had been a straight man working it out so he could group attractive ladies the news would be all over the front page with stories about how men can’t be trusted. Better not judge all gays by the acts of this one pervert though, that would be wrong.
I am glad they were fired but they should be prosecuted as well.
Perhaps the next government employee they should fire is the prosecutor who refused to file charges…

New York Governor Linked to Prostitution Ring
Mar 10, 2008 Political
New York Governor Eliot Spitzer has been linked to a prostitution ring in the state. Spitzer, who is married with children, is scheduled to hold a press conference this afternoon though there are no specifics as to how detailed his discussion will be. There have been no details as to what his involvement was, exactly, so one can only speculate if he visited prostitutes or was involved in the operation of the ring.
I am wondering if Howard Dean and the rest of the Democrats will come unhinged over this. I want to know if they will be demanding the resignation of Spitzer and if they will paint all Democrats with the broad brush of perversion that was used to paint Republicans after the Foley and Craig incidents.
It will be particularly interesting to see how the liberals excuse this behavior, as they did with Bill Clinton, and if they tout Spitzer’s proclaimed toughness on crime and corruption as a mitigating factor in how he should be treated.
Come on Dems, where are all your calls for resignation? Where are all the snide remarks and accusations of widespread perversion? If this were a Republican Governor you guys would be barking at the moon. [For the record, I think they should all be removed from office, regardless of party]
There is only one thing about this that disappoints me and that is it wasn’t the Governor of Maryland who got caught. Then again, Governor O’Malley is probably not visiting a brothel.
He is too busy screwing the citizens of Maryland instead.
