TSA VPIR Units Spreading Beyond Airports

(Before It's News)

Since a “Transportation” Security Authority can cover other modes of transportation, they have done so, with heavily armed TSA agents showing up at train depots randomly as part of the “Visible Intermodal Prevention” (VIPR) squad that seemingly only exists to make travel less convenient.
 
But it doesn’t even need to be transport related these days, as VIPR squads show up virtually anywhere they feel like, nominally in the name of national security, hassling people trying to attend sporting events or concerts.
 
Its like the Transport version of the Gestapo.  In theory, they could be traffic cops even because that is a form of transport.  They could be on the streets, setting up roadblocks and so forth.  The police state marches on..  -Mort
