More lies and fear form infowars. This really does not surprise.
Why is having the TSA now become tyranny ? If Texas wants to go against the federal government, good luck.

Are you kidding? When they start performing the same type searches in subways, schools, public buildings get back to us and let us know what tyranny is.

The best thing to do is boycott traveling, so the feds threatening to ground all Texas flights would actually help the cause

Texas Learns: Don't Mess With TSA
•The State of Texas drops an anti-gropping law aimed at preventing TSA pat downs - after the federal government threatens to shut down all the airports in Texas. The bill would have made it misdemeanor for TSA agents to do the intensive pat downs. The penalty - a $4,000 dollar fine or up to a year in jail. The TSA blogged its response, saying states are barred by the U.S. Constitution from regulating the federal government. It said the bill could lead to shut down of every airport in Texas. The bill had passed the state House, but after the TSA response it lost support. The Lt. Governor pulled the bill.
Last week, the Federal Trade Commission wrote state leaders a letter warning that one of the key health reform bills championed by Lt. Gov. David Dewhurst and Sen. Jane Nelson, R-Flower Mound, could pose “a substantial risk of consumer harm, by increasing costs and decreasing access to health care.” In the case of this measure, Senate Bill 8, lawmakers have moved forward undeterred — but fired off an angry response to the feds.
