Same for CBP and TSA. There are other jobs. You don’t need to actively fight the 4th amendment.
Their names faces and home addresses of them and their close networks need to be published when this is over.
If we had killed every member of the nazi party, or even a majority of the SS after world war 2, this would not be happening.
Gotta go further back, we could have skipped Nazis if we had properly handled the slavers and bigots in the Confederacy. American "race science" was a critical foundation for the eugenics that inspired Hitler.
Yeah. If every slave had got that 20 acres or more from the land of those who "owned" them, at least, every confederate officer been hanged, and maybe even every slaver family gutted, with everyone above a very young age being killed and the remainder neing fostered out to or adopted by black families who got paid for the trouble, the world would be a better place.
I respectfully disagree on the TSA, anecdotally.
I know a few people who applied there simply because it WAS a job in their area that paid more than minimum wage and, at least until recently, by virtue of being a government job, it was more likely to actually care about federal protections for employees with disabilities than, say, retail work, which only gives the minimum required number of fucks, and only then when someone is watching or has a lawyer handy.
Also, a significantly larger amount of the population has unfortunately accepted the questionable stipulations of the patriot act than have decided due process is simply too much work, so I feel that's a distance of an order or three of legal magnitude, comparison-wise.
I'm not saying everyone who works for the TSA is there due to lack of other options, but given it's ubiquity and level of employee turnover in airport towns, at least SOME them are.
