Seattle Restaurant Refuses to Serve TSA

Found at SayUncle:

Getting back at TSA


Restaurant at Seattle airport refuses to serve TSA agents:
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.

Interesting. The push-back seems to be intensifying.

I recently had an amazing experience going through security at a major airport. Polite, pleasant, knowledgeable, in and out like I'm supposed to go. Knowing what my ID was and what it meant. Flawless. It was only as I got through and noticed the uniform. They weren't TSA. It was a private company.

A-MAZING! And from Seattle?!?! I hadn't heard of this story yet... this couldn't be seattle, though... it must be Sea-Tac or somewhere south near the airport... Completely different city, completely different vibe!

It's good to see people standing up for their rights and for the rights of others. Now for me we can get people to stop flying to make a statement, that would get some attention. Accepting a patdown over a naked body scanner is not much of a statement someone still getting the jollies.
