The 20th Century socialist thugocracies of Europe were infested with the likes of vicious Gestapo, Stasi and KGB secret police organs. (Yes, they were all de facto variations of socialism no matter that they called themselves Nazi, communist, fascist, or Glorious People's Republic.)
The Transportation Security Administration has taken a giant step towards mutating itself into America's first truly statist/socialist/fascist federal goon squad: VIPR.
Stupid even by acronym-obsessed federalcrat standards, the Fifties-motorcycle-gang-sounding VIPR stands for Visible Intermodal Prevention and Response, something only a career bureau slug could dream up.
It's no longer enough for TSA agents to stand in airports and simply grope and irradiate women with breast cancer, children in strollers and old men in wheelchairs. Now they have to take their fake "security" act on the road to bus stations and railroad depots and truck weigh stations and…
…and an interstate off ramp roadblock near you?
Why not? Who's going to stop them from treating every motorist in the privacy of their own vehicles as potential terror perps?
What's next, bashing down our doors so they can cop a feel?
One person who isn't playing sitting duck for these Intermodal Mobsters is James Wilson, Policy Research Director at DownsizeDC.org.
"As illustrated in Tennessee this week," Wilson writes in the organization's emailed Downsizer Dispatch Newsletter, "VIPR deploys TSA agents and works with local law enforcement to stop and search people who are doing nothing suspicious."
Wilson is asking everyone to do what he has already done: "I told Congress to get the TSA out of our lives by abolishing it."
He wants everyone to swamp their "representatives" in DC with angry emails.
You can begin with his hardwired message that reads, "Please abolish the TSA, and permit airlines to provide their own security plans," continue writing your own message, and then send it to your congresscrat right from the DownsizeDC website using their "Educate the Powerful System."
After showing up at the Super Bowl, searching students going to their prom, arresting a man for a small amount of marijuana, deporting three teenagers at a trolley stop after apprehending them on their way to school, Wilson accuses the TSA-turned-VIPR with an ugly, ulterior motive: "This tells me the TSA's purpose is not to protect us from terrorism, but to be deployed as a national police force to enforce federal laws."
VIPR: Vulgar Imperial Police Rabble.
