Next time you meet a TSA agent, get their name and badge number. Do a FOIA request for their Oath of Office. Get signature certification of the person who administered the oath, write an acceptance and hold that oath over them, they can't get out from under the oath.
ok seriously, the FACT that the officers hinted that they knew he was just toying with them CLEARLY proves that they are concerned with bullying citizens instead of keeping the airlines safe. all of that unnecessary time spent harassing this guy and some real criminal could've slipped through the cracks.
...and for the record, by the TSA's own admission in court, it is LEGAL to videotape in public areas of the airport and they advise that you NEVER let your belonging our of your sight.
Nazi Police State in North America! Wake up America! Our rights and freedoms are being eroded by these fascist laws! Rise up and put a stop to this through mass demonstrations and petitioning your local Congressman!
For everyone's information here.......... This Sam guy was arrested a couple weeks ago for breaking in to a congressman's office and tapping his landline phone and cell phone.
@BLUEANGEL777777777 You are the Joke, homeland security HAS only been around for 7 years, however the 22 Agencies that make it up have been around for a LOOOOOOONNNGGG time. I suggest you do some research before you post your bullsh*t!
No, the fact that you're a Jackass lends credibility to what I say. That and the fact you can't read, I said a couple weeks ago, not last week. Great reply by the way, I've come to expect more from you. Hmmmm, will the real Sam Dodson please stand up! (eminem pun intended)
im a frequent flier 4 times a week and i never feel violated i rather have a few minutes of strict security then have the plane blow up in the air i will take my chances any day or time to love another day..i wonder what people of the world trade center would say?
its obvious you dont want any security,because seems like your helping the terrorist who gives a shit if they get fed pay or state pay some of those tsos are veterans former military and police etc...come on!!!!!!
just to let you youtubers know this asshole canceled his account the only reason he did because i brought the truth write in his face he couldnt face it
case in point we need security not weak delicate little girls crying about everything mama oys like this guy filming

Being required to show ID only proves the success of al-Qaeda with fear established and freedoms violated. Surveillance is not freedom. Having to ask for permission is not freedom. ID requirements are not freedom. Most are not willing to be inconvenienced in challenging these requirements let alone initiate a real legal battle or protest. Its easier to show ID than to fight for ones rights & freedom. Most Americans are willing to give up their freedom for perceived safety & security.
I just wanna know how many people here think Terrorist, drug dealers (though vices are not crimes) and/or criminals of any sort video tape their actions? The TSA totally overreacted to Sam. Did they think he had some drugs? A bomb? And what he was going to film him walking onto the plane with them? Come on!
This is the exact problem, like with police, they spend more time harassing peaceful people and less time on 'real' crimes.
@ammueller1 incase you did not notice terrorist use tape to film the place they will be attacking then they device a plan of attack based on the info ..its called probing then they attack comeone use your head it happens in iraq all the time agianst are men and weman in the armed forces.. IEd etc
Iraq is not a good example. For the fact that you would be doing the same thing if it were the Chinese and NOT the american TSA.
Those aren't terrorist but Freedom Fighters... the USofA is taking that countries resources, killing its people and installing its government. Oh and its also the reason for blowback, google that, which is why terrorist board planes and come here.
They don't hate us cause we are rich and free. They hate us cause we do great harm to their people and land. DUH!
@ammueller1 that is bs and you know it...using iraq is a great example terrororist as u are telling me are only limited in iraq? to use ied;s? so what u saying they wouldnt want to use an ied in any us airport? i dare u to walk the streets in iraq u would be cut to peaces in minutes because you are american and we love are freedoms.
That maybe the case now, that I would be harmed as an american in Iraq, but its because of the USof A's aggressice foreign policy.
The fact is if we weren't there they wouldn't want to come here. And you can't argue that point cause we are there.. and they are still coming. so being there isn't the answer, well atleast it doesn't keep them from coming?
your getting off topic..no system is terrorist proof but it helps devert the crminal intent bye using fullbody scanners etc does it not..now to get back to the topic..no video camera should be used to (probe) specially airports after 911 right?
Wrong. All that would do is punish peaceful people. I think if you strike the root of the problem.. which again is the foreign policy of the USA then none of us would have to worry about filming in airports. There would be no need for terrorist or activist (like Sam) to film in airports.
In order for us to be safe government needs to stop meddling in everyone's affairs, foreign and domestic.
You honestly belive what u are saying..just suppose there were no tsa..what do you actually think will happen at the airports?what excatly do you mean there would be no need for terrorist?
last i checked if given a chance muslem exteremist would force you to love there faith..so how exactly would u change ant freedom extremist from killing americans? i have to hear this..this is better be right
"just suppose there were no tsa..what do you actually think will happen at the airports?"
I imagine it would be like before the TSA came into existence.
The private airlines would be responsible for providing security on their aircraft. The airlines themselves would pay for the security, not everyone in the U.S.
Allowing citizens to carry the means of self defense? Stop allowing people from nations with Muslim populations from visiting the US? If we didn't let them come here, they couldn't cause the problems they do.
@ammueller1 using iraq is a great example that the only place on earth where more americans where killed by ied's then any place in any country.you think terrorist dont want to probe and bomb an airport? kill hundreds?
your going outside the box..we are talking about airports not the state huge difference,,to be honest i rather have stricter security i dont want to be 30,000 feet and having to worry if an ied got through would u?
seems to me this guy recording all of this would rather see security falls to its knees..and would rather let terrorist suceed in planting an ied by not using body scanners i dont know about u youtubers i would rather fly safe then sorry
if you rather fly safe, why don't we just force all people to strip naked, be probed in all their orifices, and drugged to sleep for the whole plane trip... then you'd surely be safe.
you missed the point, you'd give up some of your rights, but not others, merely for your safety. Now if everyone was fully examined, then you would be completely safe.

Nope. Skinny guy 28-30 short hair, wearing sweats, looked like he grew up with Eminem on 8-mile.

You should really research and find out the TRUTH before you proclaim that you're exposing it. Most of what you said is completely FALSE! If you don't like the security in this country try moving to Israel, i'm sure they'd love to hear your opinion. And yes you can refuse to go through the full body scanner, but you WILL get a full body pat down. FYI
Your truth is so OBSCURE it doesn't have any facts. if yur a journalist, do some real unbias invesigatioion. You think TSA is theater , but when they take a second look at you for acting suspicious, you want to complain. GET A LIFE!!! or a girlfriend.
"sheep" "wake up" - you're like a broken record - over and over and over again...sheep wake up sheep wake up sheep wake up. No one in the government cares about you or what it is you do, stop thinking that they do....you're not THAT important.
This entire half-witted crusade does nothing to prove anything, aside from this guy is a tool. Really, pal? You're gonna keep making snide remarks to the cops and expect them to just cooperate with your "investigation?" You really don't have any brains at all, do you? You're calling all cops liars, you're being totally uncooperative and making a scene. Like I said before, the fact that you haven't been arrested before is staggering. Grow some common sense and look again at what you did.
@DTownBender - Yes everyone who is questioned by the government's police should cooperate and play along. The government always has your best interest at heart.
It doesn't matter what they are doing, people should blindly obey authority . The only tool here is the one advocating obedience to men with guns.
I hope you find the courage to begin thinking rationally and objectively one day.
@obscuredtruth TSA personnel do not typically wear guns. You and your obsession with this whole gun theory good grief. "Cops" wear guns....stop pretending you don't know why, or that they rely upon them for intimidation....enough people give them shit everyday that I think they know they are not a reliable means of intimidation. When a cop is nice to you...you sarcastically label them "good cop" - but start in with the old "aah...so you're gonna play this game" bit.
If you're being objective and rational, God help us all. All I see here is baiting, inflammatory, and racist comments. You're so sold on your ideas you will not listen to any other viewpoint.
You got exactly what you wanted....you purposely sought their attention....and you got it - so what on earth are you whining about? You tell TSA to catch real criminals.....how on earth are they supposed to do that at an airport without questions and a search you dolt? What do you expect....you went in there acting like a nut - I am glad they searched you...I wouldn't want to fly with a guy like you. Good news is you'll prolly be on a no fly list in due time...CONGRATS...you win the internet!
@SSILENTNATION - I see so your hoping the TSA proves me wrong by putting me on their No Fly List.
Great idea, that would really prove me wrong about the TSA not doing anything to catch real terrorists, but instead spending their time harassing journalists.
Brilliant. Thank you for proving my point with your hateful rhetoric.
@obscuredtruth Except you're not a journalist. Posting a video on youtube once every month or so doesn't make you a journalist. You're completely biased....you have an agenda - so there is nothing thought provoking about your "stories". You get pissy when they say you're ridiculous - yet spew sarcastic jabs such as "genius" and such. You set the tone for these convos with your sarcasm. You're a very angry guy - and it shows - but you don't want to hear that. If u won't budge, why should they
@ssilentnation - Yes I have a bias towards freedom. I don't believe it's effective to use violence to solve problems as you clearly do.
The saddest thing is you actually look at the news you agree with and think it's objective, fair and balanced, while being completely oblivious to the state's indoctrination and your own beliefs. Keep up the insults and personal attacks, they speak volumes about the soundness of your position.
Lastly - how have I possibly "attacked" you. If you're going to post videos on a free youtube account and pretend it's your own Channel 3 news - you should be prepared to accept/answer an alternative opinion. As far as other news I may view - you cannot possibly know what I agree with or think is objective...who are you to know what I agree with. You have much to learn in your assumptions towards others.
The Bill of Rights does not apply to that location because you voluntarily gave them up when you entered. There were signs all over warning you of that. I dont believe that you filming the TSA agents brought all this trouble on you. It was your questions to the first female agent that got their attention. They were doing their jobs and had every right to search your bags and should have searched you as well. The Constitution was not violated they do not need reasonable suspicion when you consent
@dk0403 those cops were a bunch of empty uniformed cowards.
The only reason he didn't spend the night in detroit lockup is because he was broadcasting the video live, and that's all it took to scare those bullies away.
You have every right to take pictures, and ask questions.
They were completely unprofessional, and their impotent threats just made them look like a bunch of wusses.
@AnonymousElektron The filming is allowed but it does attract attention. His was using his questions to intentionally put the attention on himself. He asked for this believe it or not and I would have arrested him for interfering. They did not violate his rights at all and had every right to detain, search and even arrest him. He was trying to look suspicious and was very insulting when he told the agent that he looked like a terrorist because he had a beard. He brought all of it on himself.
according to stupid ass dk0403, all that's required for "lawful" contravention of the constitution is a notice that it's an area where contravention is "consented" to.
the goons have unlawfully monopolized aviation "security", thereby making it impossible to fly on the airlines without "consenting" to regular debasement. there is no provision in the constitution for such nonsense.
you are an obedience fetishist (mentally ill), and your attempt to explain away this disgrace borders on humor.
Does everyone voluntarily pay the TSA as well, or have they used their power to force everyone who want's to fly commercially? (except the rich on private planes)
I didn't say they broke the law. I'm pointing out the way they treat people and think of them.
History is littered with examples of solders and police "just doing their job", save it. That';s a shallow justification people use who are just not willing to think about the morality of their behavior.
@obscuredtruth What was so wrong with their behavior? They aren't there to bake passengers apple pies or hand out tourism pamphlets. They acted as I would expect them too. Funny I never seem to have a problem flying. Why do you have these emotional seizures over how you're treated when you treat others like shit yourself? If you had made normal arrangments to interview and learn of their procedures first before acting like a nut, this "story" would have actually been a journalistic story.
You may not have a problem wiht one human being saying your ours to another, but I do. I believe all people are created equally.
Thank you again for spending so much of your time attacking my stories. It shows how scared you are of other people seeig things and chaning their hearts and minds towards freedom and liberty.
It must really scare you to see the world changing right before your eyes.
LOL - You keep assuming I feel a certain way - ie "scared", and I think you truly want to believe that - hence your persistence in continually saying so. Unless someone agrees with you - you label words an "attack", which is quite pathetic. Your "thanking" me is another unique Sam Dodson tid bit in declaring a sarcastic victory over nothing. If you were a real journalist, you would welcome differing opinions, instead of labeling them an "attack" - but you're too scared to do that.
@obscuredtruth And you were totally in the right when you basically called that agent a terrorist? That was a pretty ignorant thing to do. All they were doing was watching you film them. You made the first contact with them and you asked them to "harass" you. This isnt like the border patrol stopping Americans 50 miles from their jurisdiction. You voluntarily went into their area of operation and called them out. If you werent looking for a fight you could have walked right past them.
REALITY CHECK...those were local law enforcement officers, not TSA. IF Sam Dodson/Sam J. Miller is lying about their identities, what else is he lying about?
Also, we don't need some little white boy to tell us what is going on. What's up with his chicken comment to the black lady?
@demonseed = How dare me talk to another human being, who is black, about chicken while standing in line for chicken. Yes I must be a racists, what more proof do you need right?
Oh no Sam! This is why you need a skeptic around! You've gone and included known fraudulent information in your video. The woman who is represented in the body scan images you put in your video is a model, and those images are known to be fakes, all over the Internet. It delegitimizes your video somewhat to include that information, and I would edit it out if I were you.
I understand what you were trying to do...show what measures they can take. However, there were several things you did to aggitate the TSA officers. For example, they asked you to step back (we can't see where) but I assume it was still within sight of your bags, yet you declined. There are signs at the checkpoints saying you are subject to search beyond that point (at least there are in the airports I fly), yet you choose to ignore them. To me, this looks like you are antagonizing them...
Why should they have the right to force him to step back? Why should they have the right to rifle through his bags anyway, especially without a warrant? They don't own him, the airline, the bags, or the airport.
Putting signs up doesn't make it ok.
HE was antagonizing THEM!? He was just taking a video in public, at a distance, which is his right. They're the ones who dumped his bag out, followed him, harassed him, etc. He just wanted to be left alone.
Sweet combination of tension and humor, Sam. You are getting very good at keeping your voice relaxed while being outraged. You also did an excellent job of incorporating low-rez video in a compelling story.
After researching these body scanners for a short time, frequencies etc.., I concluded that it would be entirely possible for a resourceful naughty person to fabricate and wear an under garment made from a special material which would appear to the scanner just like naked human flesh. Underneath that fake under-garment could be just about whatever they wanted.. and they'd walk straight through security unhindered. This "security" measure sucks ass BIG TIME! A complete waste of money.
Silver mesh clothes will shield you, but then they'd just take you in the side room and look personally, and call you a "wise guy" for trying to protect yourself from harmful radiation.
Afraid not, I've lost it. On the other hand, just type body scanner into Google Images and you'll see what actual scan images look like. Feel free to try inverting them in Photoshop and see what happens. The picture shown in the video is a simulation of an x-ray backscatter scanner image; millimeter wave scanner images are even less possible to 'shop.
Hint: for one thing, hair doesn't show up on real backscatter scans.
the population sentiment is that we want people that act stupid and upset things at the airports just to get a vid. to be checked out. it is our right to be secure on a flight no matter what. if ur not the one flying the plain then u have no say in how security in done. u don't like it don't fly drive ur ass their
If it's ours, then you and I have it. If this is a free country, how can I travel by air without using TSA mandated security?
The agency which has been factually documented over and over failing to keep us safe, failing to stop bombs, screeners falling asleep, leaving their post? A bureaucracy of 100,000 low paid jobs, and that's not a security vulnerability?
Are you kidding me? The TSA is keeping you safe from a real terrorist?.
Btw, there were no "mobs" roaming Berlin when such laws were passed either. It just so happened though that the politicians at the time felt they had a "mandate" (sound familiar?) to do so based on population sentiment.
because people are cowards.they would rather have goverment stomp on your rights to have the illusion of safety, but your not really safe. installing body scanners wont make it safer its just one more way of reducing your liberties and reminding you that they can fuck with you anytime they want as long as you put up with and of course in America that means putting up with it because most people are scared like cowards.only a few people have the guts to stand up for their rights
You are the man, Sam!!!!!! The video at 6:20 is something you would never see on mainstream media. What is happening is that they are prepping us for the police state to come.
I know...I thought it was a particularly biting question to ask the black guy if it's "OK for 1 human to own another human"....Sam's got great big balls of steel.
Next time you meet a TSA agent, get their name and badge number. Do a FOIA request for their Oath of Office. Get signature certification of the person who administered the oath, write an acceptance and hold that oath over them, they can't get out from under the oath.

If you don't like the security in this country try moving to Israel, i'm sure they'd love to hear your opinion. And yes you can refuse to go through the full body scanner, but you WILL get a full body pat down. FYI

Your truth is so OBSCURE it doesn't have any facts. if yur a journalist, do some real unbias invesigatioion. You think TSA is theater , but when they take a second look at you for acting suspicious, you want to complain. GET A LIFE!!! or a girlfriend.

This entire half-witted crusade does nothing to prove anything, aside from this guy is a tool. Really, pal? You're gonna keep making snide remarks to the cops and expect them to just cooperate with your "investigation?" You really don't have any brains at all, do you? You're calling all cops liars, you're being totally uncooperative and making a scene. Like I said before, the fact that you haven't been arrested before is staggering. Grow some common sense and look again at what you did.

@DTownBender - Yes everyone who is questioned by the government's police should cooperate and play along. The government always has your best interest at heart.
It doesn't matter what they are doing, people should blindly obey authority . The only tool here is the one advocating obedience to men with guns.
I hope you find the courage to begin thinking rationally and objectively one day.

@obscuredtruth TSA personnel do not typically wear guns. You and your obsession with this whole gun theory good grief. "Cops" wear guns....stop pretending you don't know why, or that they rely upon them for intimidation....enough people give them shit everyday that I think they know they are not a reliable means of intimidation. When a cop is nice to you...you sarcastically label them "good cop" - but start in with the old "aah...so you're gonna play this game" bit.

The Bill of Rights does not apply to that location because you voluntarily gave them up when you entered. There were signs all over warning you of that. I dont believe that you filming the TSA agents brought all this trouble on you. It was your questions to the first female agent that got their attention. They were doing their jobs and had every right to search your bags and should have searched you as well. The Constitution was not violated they do not need reasonable suspicion when you consent

@AnonymousElektron The filming is allowed but it does attract attention. His was using his questions to intentionally put the attention on himself. He asked for this believe it or not and I would have arrested him for interfering. They did not violate his rights at all and had every right to detain, search and even arrest him. He was trying to look suspicious and was very insulting when he told the agent that he looked like a terrorist because he had a beard. He brought all of it on himself.
dk0403 2 years ago
@dk0403 So what if he was doing that?
He wasn't committing a crime, and anyone could see that he was not a terrorist, or even a criminal.
He was disgruntled, because the TSA has been a complete failure, and waste of money.
And so what if he's insulting?
Is being rude a crime?
Those cops were being VERY rude, maybe they should be arrested.

according to stupid ass dk0403, all that's required for "lawful" contravention of the constitution is a notice that it's an area where contravention is "consented" to.
the goons have unlawfully monopolized aviation "security", thereby making it impossible to fly on the airlines without "consenting" to regular debasement. there is no provision in the constitution for such nonsense.
you are an obedience fetishist (mentally ill), and your attempt to explain away this disgrace borders on humor.

Does everyone voluntarily pay the TSA as well, or have they used their power to force everyone who want's to fly commercially? (except the rich on private planes)
I didn't say they broke the law. I'm pointing out the way they treat people and think of them.
History is littered with examples of solders and police "just doing their job", save it. That';s a shallow justification people use who are just not willing to think about the morality of their behavior.

@obscuredtruth What was so wrong with their behavior? They aren't there to bake passengers apple pies or hand out tourism pamphlets. They acted as I would expect them too. Funny I never seem to have a problem flying. Why do you have these emotional seizures over how you're treated when you treat others like shit yourself? If you had made normal arrangments to interview and learn of their procedures first before acting like a nut, this "story" would have actually been a journalistic story.

LOL - You keep assuming I feel a certain way - ie "scared", and I think you truly want to believe that - hence your persistence in continually saying so.

If you were a real journalist, you would welcome differing opinions, instead of labeling them an "attack" - but you're too scared to do that.
SSILENTNATION 2 years ago
@obscuredtruth And you were totally in the right when you basically called that agent a terrorist? That was a pretty ignorant thing to do. All they were doing was watching you film them. You made the first contact with them and you asked them to "harass" you. This isnt like the border patrol stopping Americans 50 miles from their jurisdiction. You voluntarily went into their area of operation and called them out. If you werent looking for a fight you could have walked right past them.

Oh no Sam! This is why you need a skeptic around! You've gone and included known fraudulent information in your video.

It delegitimizes your video somewhat to include that information, and I would edit it out if I were you.

mackler 2 years ago
I understand what you were trying to do...show what measures they can take. However, there were several things you did to aggitate the TSA officers. For example, they asked you to step back (we can't see where) but I assume it was still within sight of your bags, yet you declined. There are signs at the checkpoints saying you are subject to search beyond that point (at least there are in the airports I fly), yet you choose to ignore them. To me, this looks like you are antagonizing them...
MediaManRIT 2 years ago
Why should they have the right to force him to step back? Why should they have the right to rifle through his bags anyway, especially without a warrant? They don't own him, the airline, the bags, or the airport.
Putting signs up doesn't make it ok.
HE was antagonizing THEM!? He was just taking a video in public, at a distance, which is his right. They're the ones who dumped his bag out, followed him, harassed him, etc. He just wanted to be left alone.
If he did that to them, he'd be in jail.

After researching these body scanners for a short time, frequencies etc.., I concluded that it would be entirely possible for a resourceful naughty person to fabricate and wear an under garment made from a special material which would appear to the scanner just like naked human flesh. Underneath that fake under-garment could be just about whatever they wanted.. and they'd walk straight through security unhindered. This "security" measure sucks ass BIG TIME! A complete waste of money.
