Seattle Airport Area Restaurant Refuses to Serve TSA Agents

Fed up with what he views as crappy treatment from the TSA, the owner of a restaurant near Seattle-Tacoma International Airport has decided to put all TSA agents on his No-Eat List.

"We have posted signs on our doors basically saying that they aren't allowed to come into our business," one employee tells travel journalist Christopher Elliott. "We have the right to refuse service to anyone."

She says that whenever a TSA agent attempts to dine at the restaurant, "we turn our backs and completely ignore them, and tell them to leave... Their kind aren't welcomed in our establishment."

The restaurant claims that 90% of its patrons are in agreement with their stance and that the local police have actually helped escort TSA workers of the premises.

"Until TSA agents start treating us with the respect and dignity that we deserve, then things will change for them in the private sector," says the employee.
"A strict observance of the written laws is doubtless one of the high duties of a good citizen, but it is not the highest. The laws of necessity, of self-preservation, of saving our country when in danger, are of higher obligation. To lose our country by a scrupulous adherence to written law, would be to lose the law itself, with life, liberty, property and all those who are enjoying them with us; thus absurdly sacrificing the end to the means."

- Thomas Jefferson

I think I saw that story yesterday and thought that it was quite appropriate.
In a doomsday scenario, hippies will be among the first casualties. So not everything about doomsday will be bad.

I can have sympathy, but in the end, the TSAs are just low paid security guard types following the orders of the dumbass in chief.

They wouldn't be groping if the leftist trash in charge believed in a little profiling.

This is great! I'd patronize that place...but you'd never catch me dead in Seattle.

MNHawk, in the end, they are the one's executing the policies. They're groping because they want a paycheck. Not nearly a good enough excuse. I have zero sympathy and nothing but...hatred. Visceral hatred, the kind reserved for any goon or, as Soup pointed out, the ol' Brownshirts, Gestapo, Stasi, KGB, any group that tramples on society and claims they're just following orders. Some of those folks were, no doubt, true believers, but so are some of teh TSA.
