Abolish the TSA
« on: September 10, 2026, 05:41:06 PM »
Here's another heartwarming story of a useless government agency not only causing problems, but actually compounding a disaster.

It's a bunch of soggy tourists. What are they going to do? Hijack the plane and fly it into Aloha Tower Marketplace?

You know I normally wouldn't advocate for this, but I would love to see all those tourists get so pissed at once that they mob and attack the TSA officers in unison. They would outnumber the TSA officers and they wouldn't be able to hold them back. Just make a big racket of a scene that would force the issue of shutting down the TSA.


This scene should also bring to light why these greedy corporations that run the airlines are keeping Kauai open to nonstop tourism all year long. We just got hit by a f@#%!ng hurricane, cut us some god d@mned slack! Start issuing refunds to folks that booked flights and travel packages months in advance, you corporations have to take a loss too when natural disasters strike! There are people here who lost waaay more than you greedy f@#%$ who get to hide out in your air conditoned offices in Colorado or Arizona!

Kawakami the spineless n!9 would happily shut down Kauai during COVID but he would not dare put his feet down, get in the faces of the airlines and the hotels (Marriot, Sheraton etc) and issue a temporary closure for new arrivals; with the exception of family members, national guard, actual helpful volunteers etc.Kawakami is out for the money and don't you people forget this in November, he would bury our wounded aina in overtourism for a god d@mned sack full of cash and power! F@#% that yakuza wannabe!

Yeah, that worked so well on Jan 6th, 2021, at the Capitol in DC.

They might get a quick victory in that moment, but the feds will be rounding up the tourists later -- and then they will be the ones outnumbered.

Half the people at the capitol were undercover feds

Half?  I don't think so.  The FBI said they had about 40 civilian informants and only about 6 actual agents in the ground there.

That came out after months of the FBI trying to spin it and avoid all admitting so many informants were there.

That's just the FBI, they could be lying about the number. and it doesn't even include paid informants and other curious arrangements.

The point is the riot would not have happened without the government agent provocateurs.
