Wake up folks! How much more freedoms and liberties are you willing to give up because some government bureaucrat again and again says 'it's for your safety'.
Random searches? Obeying the law, doing nothing wrong, get pulled over for a 'random search'?
U.S. Constitution Amendment IV
The right of the people to be secure in their person, houses, 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.

I'll say once it again. It's unconstitutional and it's BS.
It appears to be constitutional. Buses and Big rigs are used for business and are not personal effects. One step closer to a Police State IMO.

We need to write our representatives in DC and express our outrage.

The Feds are already too powerful and their power grows day by day.

You do that and remind Obama what he said about the Patriot Act.

So many shortsighted people say, "If you don't like the TSA, take a train." Then these low rent lackeys appeared at the train station" The same sheeple then said, "If you don't like the TSA, take a bus." TSA now appear at bus stations. The cowards then said, "If you don't like the TSA, drive." The TSA have now appeared on highways in Georgia, Texas, and now Tennessee. WAKE UP PEOPLE! The Bill of Rights is being crapped and flushed down the toilet.
