Pocatello, Idaho.... Bill Barlow and his four sons ran a plumbing, heating and electrical business. This was a family-owned business with thirty-five employees. Bill new that eventually OSHA would sooner or later inspect his business on his private property. After some thinking and study he felt that such inspection of private property by the government was a violation of a constitutional right under the Fourth Amendment.*
*Article IV, December 15, 1791: The right of the people to be secure in their persons, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated; and no warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.
OSHA, at that time, based its right to search without a warrant of Section 8(a) of the Occupational Safety and Health Act.
Bill refused to obey the order. He challenged the constitutionality of Section 8(a) of the OSHA Act via an empaneled three judge court.
The U.S. District Court ruled on December 30, 1976 in his favor stating that Section 8(a) 'directly offends against the prohibitions of the 4th Amendment of the Constitution of the United States of America.'
I would like to know how the government and TSA circumvented and continues to circumvent via the Patriot
Act or other instrument the original intent of the very clearly stated right established by the 4th Amendment of the Constitution of the United States of America. What Amendment (Right) are we going to loose to the sacred altar of security and safety...where will this stop?

This security charade exists to fund the scanner lobby and provide jobs to otherwise unemployable people. Twelve TSA employees have been arrested or convicted of job related crimes since December. Anyone who trusts an organization with this many criminals is simply ignoring reality. An example:

Thanks for your comment. I think it is only the tip of the iceberg. What next... the transportation secret police....show me your papers!I worry about the Federal Government getting bigger and bigger and slowly taking bit by bit our Constitutional rights away under the guise of safety and security.
Ben Franklin said it very well..."Those who would give up essential liberty to purchase a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety."
Imagine how 'blue haired' grandmothers feel so much safer when they fly. The TSA gropes them, x-rays their shoes and then report to them that they (grandmothers) are not terrorists when nothing is found. I think we know who the terrorists are.
Dr Gorski; Just to let you know, a very brite young man in the Rockton-Roscoe area told me about your site. He is a good friend of my daughter. I want to share a link to an another interesting site: www.infowars.com
Alex Jones supports Ron Paul, smaller government, auditing the federal (with a small f) reserve, doing away with the TSA, repealing the patriot act, et al. While I don't agree with everything he says I do agree with much of the content. Check it out.
Thank you Keith for your comments. I have three bright grandsons in that area but I believe I know which one you are refering too. I have added www.infowars.com to may favorites list so I can monitor it and gain some additional info and insight. Thanks again! Do not despair!
