TSA admits "terrorists in America are not plotting against aviation"

Cory Doctorow at 8:53 pm Thu, Oct 17, 2013


An accidentally published, unredacted document from a lawsuit against 
the TSA reveals that the Taking Shoes Away people believe that 
"terrorist threat groups present in the Homeland are not known to be 
actively plotting against civil aviation targets or airports." That is 
to say, there is no identifiable risk to America's skies -- and all of 
business with shoes and pornoscanners and horrible, abusive incidents 
involving toddlers, people with mental disabilities, cancer survivors, 
rape survivors, and the whole business of treating travellers like 
presumptive terrorists is all to prevent a problem that, to all intents 
and purposes, doesn't exist.
