Apparently only TSA screeners are allowed to look at nekkid folks at the airport, because when an Oregon man attempted to give the entire crowd waiting in line the same view that the blue-gloved security minions had in the Porn-O-Scan booth, he got arrested for disorderly conduct and indecent exposure, rather than being given an award for being a patriotic citizen who was just trying to prove that he wasn't carrying anything on board except a few extra pounds and a Not-Gonna-Take-It-Anymore attitude.
Mr. Bare It All For Safety, we salute you with today's Real Men Of Genius award.
More like a Portland Teabag Party.
ReplyDeleteIf he REALLY wanted to make a Statement, he should have painted "Occupy Portland International" on his Chest and sat down. There'd be 40 Lawyers, Reporters, Community Activists, et.al. oozing out of the Walls to form a Drum Circle and the whole Place would be shut down for 3 months.
ReplyDeleteLOL@ Joseph.
ReplyDeleteI can hear that guy singing it in my head. "Mr bareitallforsay - afetyguy. Hey! It gets cold up here in Portland."
ReplyDeleteBarkeep, give that man a beer on me.

I've always been convinced that this is where air travel is heading anyway. Passengers with no (or TSA-issued) clothes, filing into planes to be gassed into unconsciousness for the flight.
ReplyDeleteSomewhere, I'm sure there's someone in the TSA looking at this incident and having an 'ah-ha' moment.
I am flying out on Monday to parts unknown. I cannot WAIT for the groping at Orchard.
ReplyDeleteFlying? A while nack, RSA started operating in some railroad stations.
ReplyDeleteAnd now, in Housron, buses. Complete with "random" bag searches. Several links at -

"nack, RSA"
ReplyDelete"back, TSA"
Those charges won't hold up in Portland.
ReplyDeleteThe second he claims he was conducting peaceful political expression, the local courts will throw it all out.
This is the same jurisdiction that completely legalized all forms of stripper clubs as art expression.
The airport police at PDX are infamous locally for getting slapped silly repeatedly by Oregon courts.
ReplyDeleteHe was just exposing himself to Art...

If someone will set up a beer fund for this guy , I'l9l kick in . Hell if I had the cash I would buy the local naturist community tickets to Vegas ! Just for the funny "Would you prefer a pat down or the scanner ?" ....." I'm nude you moron !" And then I'd be arrested for video tapeing an airport ! Cause you know stuff like that should be preserved for future generations !
ReplyDeleteWhen I read he'd been arrested, I'd assumed it was because he refused to check his wheelbarrow.
ReplyDeleteYou know, the one he used to haul around his massive, steel-plated balls.
Good on him.
I applaud this guy, but I'd never follow his example. Government flunkies deserve nausea and the urge to claw out their own eyeballs. Some members of the general public don't.
