[QUOTE="Glocktogo, post: 1373396, member: 1132"] I hate to say it JB, but you'd loose every one of them. :( That will not work either. You'll either submit to the pat down, or you will not fly, period. think you're going to file charges? There are laws in place to prevent you from filing frivilous charges against federal security screeners in performance of their duties. Do you really think they're going to exceed their scope of authority in front of a supervisor and a police officer? in this case, Boortz is an idiot. Don't like it? Go Greyhound! :) I love all these threads where everyone believes that the TSA makes up whatever they want. The fine schedule RANGES from $0 to $11,000. No one will ever actually be fined $11,000 for refusing screening. That's the top of the range and we use "progressive enforcement" policies. Bring a loaded gun into my checkpoint? I'll send you a love letter for $3000. Switchblade? $250 Undeclared firearm in checked baggage? $1500. If you're cooperative and pay within 30 days, we'll be reasonable and accept 50% as payment in full. I've yet to see a passenger win a case under these circumstances. Airline fines range from $0 to $27,500. BTW, these fine schedules have been in place since well before the TSA was ever created. The FAA used these for years before 9/11. TSA didn't just make this up. Yet y'all let a bunch of idiot media types get you all spun up about nothing. You know how wrong they can be on gun issues, yet you believe them whenever they bash something you don't like? Do you really think they suddenly got it right? :ugh2: [/QUOTE]
