Jim Babb reports:
Tonight, Ken Krachuk and I did some pamphleting at Philadelphia airport. Our purpose was to test the airport response in preparation for Nov 24th (https://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=162033297164849). We passed out about 40 flyers, both outside and inside the airport, without incident. Because the airport was relatively quiet, most of the people we talked to were airline personnel. Here is a copy of what we passed out https://www.scribd.com/doc/41471741/TSAFlyer-Draft2. Its a rough draft of information that will be on the 4″ x 9″ slim-jim that will be mass produced. Feel free to make any comments about the content.
We learned a few things.
1) Philadelphia already has a scanner at one terminal.
2)The response was overwhelmingly positive. One baggage checker used packing tape to affix our flyer to his counter. A pilot said I “I went through one today. THAT’S WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE?!?”. Others were also amazed out how detailed the scans are. This seems to be a key point for our outreach. People have heard about the scanners, but have no idea how invasive it is. This is the key to arousing public outrage.
3) The reaction on the 24th may still be unpredictable, but no one approached me during about 35 minutes of pamphleting. I even gave a flyer to a TSA agent. No signs are posted about loitering, soliciting, etc. I’m optimistic about pamphleting on the 24th. Ken will be making a courtesy call to Philadelphia police to notify them of our intentions. I expect no reaction from them accept a thank you.
4) We identified the Airport Marriott bar as the best start and end spot for the Nov 24th operation. It’s a safe place to gather our team, where we can be treated like customers instead of suspects. Its also perfect for some well earned beers afterwords.

You are missing an “of” in your first or second sentence.
Also, highlight health risks of cataracts and skin cancer.
If you want to take this one step further, after you have experienced an enhanced pat down contact local police and tell them you are a victim of sexual assault. When they respond indicate that the screener touched your genitals without your permission and you would like the police to bring charges against them.
You are fighting the wrong people. TSA does not set policy. The White House sets policy and they do not care about the American people. Obama and Big Sis just don’t want anything to happen on their watch. OR they want to distroy the one more part of the American economy.
Jim,
Can we get an editable copy of the tri-fold you are going to pass out on the 24th? I am setting up a group here inn Houston to do the same thing.
Gary,
The TSA does not set policy. The SS camp guards didn’t either. Same outcome.
THANK YOU for what you are doing. I plan on doing this is Denver on Nov. 24th. If anyone wants to join me please email me at [email protected]. We will get connected to get things going on in the Mile High City! I want Our America Back!!
