H/T to Patriot, aka, The Other Buck for sending me the link to this entry at DailyKos. Scary stuff folks!

Welcome to another creeping slide towards the big brother state.

Federal agents, including Air Marshals were present and patted people down, looked in bags, and performed “behavior” tests for the stated purpose of finding weapons and people who were a threat to public safety.

Before you think I am joking, let me refer to both the Indianapolis Star report TSA checks IndyGo bus passengers as well as posted first person reports of what happened yesterday and why it effects us all.
