Jesse Ventura Berates Facist America Over Court Ruling 2011

One day after Jesse Ventura lost his legal challenge to airport pat-downs and full-body scans, the former Minnesota governor declared Friday that he will "never fly commercial again" and just might run for president so he can change passenger security measures.

Ventura made his comments outside the federal courthouse in St. Paul, where in January he sued to challenge the Transportation Security Administration's (TSA) airport security procedures. The suit was thrown out because Congress set up the law so that all such challenges must be brought directly in Circuit Courts of Appeals, wrote U.S. District Judge Susan Richard Nelson.

After getting a titanium implant in his hip in 2008, Ventura's suit said, he started lighting up airport magnetometers. At first, screeners waved a magnetic hand wand over him and sent him through. But last year, the TSA's enhanced screening procedures meant he had to go through invasive full-body scans or pat-downs, the suit added.

The scans reveal too much and the pat-downs require a security officer to grope his body, "including private and sensitive areas," the suit read.

"I will never fly commercially again," Ventura said to reporters Friday, adding that he hasn't flown since he was searched at the Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport nearly a year ago.

He complained that the federal courts are denying him constitutional rights, but said that he's unsure whether he will appeal Thursday's dismissal.

"I want a trial by jury. They tell me I can have a jury decide my fate!" Ventura said. "If given a jury, I will win."

He questioned whether he could trust a panel of three government-paid appeals court judges. But he left open the door, noting that he hadn't conferred with his attorneys yet.

Ventura contended that the TSA's procedures treat passengers as guilty until proven innocent. "I will not, in a free country, be treated like a criminal," he said.

Ventura added that he and his wife, Terry, intend to apply for Mexican citizenship and become dual citizens. The two have spent long stretches of time living in Mexico since he left office.

He then zeroed in on longtime political reporter Pat Kessler. After pausing for effect, Ventura said maybe the only way to change the rules at TSA is to become president.

Asked whether he was planning to run, Ventura responded, "I'm thinking about it." That's something he's done in previous election cycles, but he has never been a candidate for the White House.

"Jesse's on a roll!" he quipped.

Ventura, governor from 1999 through 2002 and earlier a pro wrestler as Jesse "The Body" Ventura, currently hosts "Conspiracy Theory" on the truTV network. His held up the press conference he called for a couple of minutes until his own crew could get set up.

One reporter noted that Ventura had expressed security concerns while he was governor in the wake of the 9/11 terrorism attacks. "Don't even get me started on 9/11," Ventura responded.

"George Bush said we were attacked because they were jealous of our freedoms. So we take away our freedoms so they won't be jealous anymore?" he said, incredulous. "I think they're winning."

Fuck RAMBO. Jesse is the One

[TheRevolutionCanada]

Thinking about it?? Jesse Please Do It the United States Of America Needs You!!!!!!

FUCK THE TSA and THEIR NAZI ROBOTS

[andrewjefferson1776]

@soulinite Holy Crap!!! Why do you keep talking about Alex Jones??!! You are like a freakin broken record!!! I'm done talking to you; you have a serious addiction with Alex Jones. You are wacked man.

[soulinite]

@andrewjefferson1776 Watching Alex Jones videos isn't research.

Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence. It's not up to me to prove your paranoid fantasies wrong. the burden of proof is on you.

Can you prove gnomes to come into your room at night while you sleep?

[andrewjefferson1776]

@soulinite Well, that's great that you don't believe "propaganda [you] found on the internet." Although you are on the internet now, so truth, to you, seems to be subjective. I for one actually do research, unlike whoever it is you are accusing me to be. And to your other point, where is the evidence that 9/11 was an outside job? Please, explain to me using evidence and facts that don't defy logic or the laws of physics. Besides, isn't this video about not wanting to be groped by the TSA?

[soulinite]

@andrewjefferson1776 I'm not an expert on "the underwear bomber". Where is your evidence that 9/11 was an inside job?

If I lived in a fantasy world I'd construct a reality where I'm a hero and part of the intellectual elite for being dumb enough to believe paranoid propaganda i found on the internet. That's what people who live in fantasy worlds do.

[andrewjefferson1776]

@soulinite Blah, blah, blah... I'm actually giving you quotes and citations NOT from the "Alex Jones Show" and all you can do it name call. You can't debate me because you have no facts. All you do is spew the same nonsensical rhetoric every other slavery loving idiot does on You Tube. You live in fantasy land.

[soulinite]

@andrewjefferson1776 Calling you out on your paranoid bullshit isn't defending the Status quo. I know you have a painfully 1 dimensional world view but there is a lot of room between fox news watching "sheeple" and paranoid lunatic.

You're speaking in Alex Jones talking points. Do you know what a quote mine is? I fail to see how government acting like the bumbling bureaucracy it is validates any of your crazy conspiracy theories.

[andrewjefferson1776]

@soulinite You do defend the status quo. Plus, do you really think I would make up a quote? You are dumber than I thought. Go read the quote yourself: article "IC Intel guys wanted underwear bomber to come to the US?" And NBC Los Angeles article "Mistakes on "No Fly List" Keeping Travelers Grounded." I'm done talking to you. You want others to do research for you; and you are obsessed with Alex Jones. I haven't quoted him once and yet you keep talking about him. Get a life man.

[soulinite]

@andrewjefferson1776 Do you have a credible source for that claim?

Remember that Alex Jones is a lying con-artist.

I don't defend the status quo. I'm calling you out on your unsupported bullshit.

[andrewjefferson1776]

@soulinite Ok, here's some truth; State Department spokesman P.J. Crowley said, concerning the "underwear bomber" after they admitted that they got him on the plane "Even where an individual may have some association with terrorism, that doesn't automatocally mean that a visa should or will be revoked." Tell that to the millions of innocent American's who are on a no fly list for no reason. So why do you keep defending the status quo?

[soulinite]

Why does Jesse feel the need to lie about having been a Navy SEAL?
