Cannabis Defense Coalition is a 501(c)(3) non-profit member cooperative focused on drug law reform in Washington State. I'm a member and I serve on the board of directors. In 2009, I was in...

If by "likely have a confrontation" you mean "likely need to interact with TSA staff who are misinformed and/or likely to lie about their own policies and might try to prevent me from traveling" then...

I suspect the OP meant to refer to your automobile. 30,000 people die in traffic accidents on U.S. roads every year. You and your car and me and my car are among the biggest threats to...

What about the documents people carry makes you more comfortable about them? What about the same people, without documentation of identity, would make you uncomfortable? How does having identified...

I am licensed by the state of Washington to drive on public roads. I carry documentation of such when driving on public roads. If I plan to leave the United States, I carry my passport (and I carry...

I hope I haven't come across as combative here. I broke some serious rules of netiquette by not lurking a while to get a feel for things before jumping into the discussion. I'm happy to chat more...

You've touched on a major part of the problem. As far as we can tell, most of TSA's policies are not based in law. They require us to follow rules we are not allowed to read. How can we ensure...

Not a chance. It's ridiculous that we're asked to refrain from photographing something that thousands of people can see, remember, take notes about, or photograph with their phones while it looks...

My lawyers, Molly Schmidt-Nowara and Nancy Hollander, did excellent work. I like them both a lot, and I enjoyed working with them. I still owe them nearly $20,000 of the $34,000 their services cost...

I think that if police officers are held personally accountable for doing TSA's dirty work -- enforcing rules that are made up on the fly, that neither we nor the police are allowed to read, if they...

Knowing someone's name (or rather, knowing what name was printed on that card that any college student can purchase to buy beer with), doesn't make him or her any less of a danger. I don't care if...

If I hadn't used my camera to record my interaction with the security guards and police officers -- then undeleted the video after the police tried to erase it while I was in jail -- I almost...

Yikes. The TSA guy who lied about TSA photography policies -- Jonathon Breedon -- testified on the witness stand that people fly without ID all the time. They have a procedure for dealing with the...

I think by "screened" you meant "searched." TSA staff screen the flow of passengers through TSA's airport barricades by searching them, questioning them, and then either granting or denying them...

Please note that months ahead of my flight, at the public suggestion of TSA's Curtis "Blogger Bob" Burns, I contacted 50 major U.S. airports to inquire about any local policies they might have which...

I firmly believe that we should not be required to request and receive permission from our government before traveling from one state to another.

TSA's identity checks serve two purposes:...

In the United States, we operate under the belief that all people are born with certain rights. The U.S. Constitution doesn't define rights. The Bill of Rights limits the power of our federal...

Hi, all. Thank you for your interest in my case, and for the generally-civil tone of this thread. I'm completely comfortable discussing something about which other people disagree without taking...
