Does TSA Behavior Fall under Definition of Terrorism?

[George Orwell]

Jeffrey Goldberg, a national correspondent for The Atlantic, recently got a TSA agent to admit that the prospect of genital groping is being used as a means of coercion.

Section 802 of the U.S. Patriot Act, titled “Definition of Domestic Terrorism,” provides several definitions of domestic terrorism, including this one: “The term `domestic terrorism’ means . . . activities that appear to be intended to intimidate or coerce a civilian population.”

Be nice if you showed THE WHOLE DEFINITION--NOT just the part that suits your argument! I also want to see how all you guys who refuse the scanners AND patdown oplan to get to Europe by train or bus!

Most of government actions fall under the definition of terrorism whether they do it directly or indirectly, but since they are "government agents" we are not allowed to call it terrorism, because the government agents can do whatever they want to do to the slaves of the government who must obey its orders literary and without any objection. If we say "NO", we will be labeled as "terrorists". We should always say: YES! The government officials can terrorize, intimidate, threaten, abuse, and humiliate its slaves any time they want and in any place they wish!

Air travelers in the U.S. are being presented with a choice when passing through airport security: either submit to being scanned by an extremely invasive and potentially hazardous machine, or have your genitals groped by agents of the Transportation Security Administration.
