Arrest Made in Newark Airport Security Breach 

NEWARK, N.J. (AP) -- The man believed to have caused a security breach that resulted in major delays Sunday at Newark Liberty Airport has been arrested and will be charged with defiant trespassing.

The Port Authority of New York and New Jersey says 28-year-old Haisong Jiang of Piscataway was taken into custody at 7:30 p.m. Friday at his home by Port Authority police. It was not immediately clear whether Jiang has retained a lawyer.

Further details were not immediately available.

On a surveillance video released Thursday by the Transportation Security Administration and the Port Authority, a man wearing a light-colored jacket ducks under a rope barrier and enters the secure area unseen by a security guard.

1. Poor guy

He didn't play Bush's ridiculous and stupid TSA-game so he's going to get screwed when he has done nothing wrong.

16. To give his girlfriend a Goodbye Kiss.

Let's give him a Tribunal and execute him for being a terrorist.

All Hail The Police State.

19. Or maybe we should do away with Bush's Draconian TSA and stop our country from becoming a Police State.

Or maybe we should all be good little boot-licking citizens and let the Police State thrive, and just live with all the consequences that come along with it.

What a cowardly, weak, soft population we have become.

This thread has the collective IQ of a breadstick.

"Just Keep Me Safe!"

20. I think the security theater is stupid too BUT I have more respect for my fellow travelers than to do something selfish. Sneaking into the secured area of the airport is not the same as sneaking into a movie theater. It has nothing to do with being afraid of a terrorist under my bed.

22. If you think it's stupid then stop defending it for COMPLETELY OVERREACTING

There was NO REASON to go to the extremes that they did.

Dear God, what the **** is WRONG with people in this country?

We need to GET RID of this Draconian Bullshit, not ruin people's lives and submit to it.

It's like somebody said in a thread earlier today.

I'd rather be killed by a terrorist than live in a state of cowardice and tryanny.

You can lick all the boots you want.

There is no way I will defend this. Ever.

Jesus Christ, this thread has given me a whole new list of people to add to my ignore list.

33. Caring that someone skipped past security= overreacting?

so the person who saw him shouldn't have cared? or personnel should've just shrugged their shoulders and said it's no big deal?

35. NO. That's not what I said.

That's a ridiculous statement.

They could have found a way to handle it without making it the unnecessary joke of a spectacle they did.

They shut the WHOLE TERMINAL DOWN. THAT was OVERREACTING.

You know that, and if you don't, you should know better.

We need to do away with this useless, draconian Farce that is the TSA.

It isn't ABOUT "Keeping You Safe".

It never was from the beginning.

It's about getting you to submit to control. This is what tyranny IS. And if you think it's going to stop here, and not expand and KEEP expanding, you're either naive or you simply don't want to see.

And from the looks of the responses in this thread, it's working.

And it's a pathetic joke.

I am done with this conversation.

Let the "Fear Bots" have their Circle Jerk of "Keep Me Safe, I'll Go Along With Whatever OMGWTFBBQ!!!!!

Disgusting.

26. This is what I like about DU... 

Whenever a thread is filled with rigid-thinking, small-minded posts that entirely miss the big picture, someone like TheWatcher comes in and nails their sorry asses.

Thanks TheWatcher. Just knowing people like you are out there keeps me going.

28. Thank You, Iowa.

I simply cannot believe that people are DEFENDING this shit.

I can't.

What has become of this country?

When did we become so cowardly, and so willing to submit to Draconian, tyrannical nonsense?

Why do we all of a sudden WANT to LIVE THIS WAY?

Every day this country becomes more and more like 1984.

I wonder how long it will be before we surpass it?

30. I know. It's absolutely sickening... 

And many who are posting on this thread are practically begging for more!

Sometimes I'm just stunned when I see the sheep-like mindset of some of the posters here. Posting rebuttals is like trying to bail out a sinking ship with a thimble.

41. I'm hoping you're a sock puppet.

Surely there can't be two actual people who are this dumb.

50. Oh LOOK, another little bobble headed Fear Bot wants to join in the fun.

"Please, just keep me safe. I will go along with whatever indignity no matter how unreasonable."

Sad to tell you, that isn't a sock puppet above.

And I have sad news for you, we're are neither dumb nor naive.

We can merely see all of this for what it is.

It's too bad the other 20 Sheep on this thread can't.

Get out of my face with your pathetic insults.

It doesn't impress me, and does nothing but emphasize your ignorance.

55. That is not what any of us have said

but you're too obtuse to admit it, nor do you apparently have the ability to comprehend why people who think the TSA overreacted could also be glad that the asshole who started it all get arrested & held accountable for HIS actions.

65. You are so obsessed with your imagined TSA bogeymen you can't even understand the topic here.

Yet from this haze of willful ignorance you seem to enjoy, you proclaim you own omniscience. Once you have reached a point in an argument where you feel compelled to assert that you are not dumb or naive, you have probably already lost the debate.

I will somehow manage to struggle through the rest of my life despite the sad realization that I have failed to impress you.

13. The ****er disrespected all the gillions of people who played by the rules followed the laws and have hated every minute of it. I hope they kick his ass.

23. He caused the travelers of the Newark Airport...

Six extra hours of delay for nothing. He could have kissed his girlfriend before the security gate. At this very least, he should be required to pay a fine.

25. Jerk ass bastard. 

I fly all the time, suffer hours of bullshit & this stupid asshole makes it even worse for the brothers & sisters that were having to travel that day. I hope they stuff a broom up his ass.

After which the watching primitive goes on a couple of really intense rants.

So, the message of the thread is its all Bush's fault, even though their guy has been in place for a year, along with a congress that has been on their side since 2006 - am I right ?

The headline made me think of TwixVoy

Keep in mind this is from a primitive who is so stupid to believe that if the Fed takes over healthcare via single payer/universal, that the Fed won't keep expanding their control until such time that all freedom is lost.

"In order to not have a Police State, we must inact policies that are those of a Police State and then pretend they're not." - TheWatcher (paraphrased)

Cowardly, weak, and soft doesn't begin to describe just how spineless and worthless you are, primitive.

[thundley4]

I think TheWatcher is a Muslim mole and wants lax security to make it easier to carry out their plans. 

[skipuno]

You can almost see the idiocy leaking out of this thread. People who regularly vote for communists and socialists are worried about the US becoming a police state. People who are the sheep are worried about this becoming a nation of sheep. Amazing!

[Randy]

Dear DUmmies,

Let myself and all other law abiding Concealed Carry Permit Holders carry our legally owned  guns onto the planes. Then we could dispense with the "Draconian Security" that has been found to be needed to keep your butt buddies from hijacking planes with box cutters.

**** You very much,
Randy

What the hell? I thought this idiots wanted a police state. Some even said so in the "I love 'ugo" thread.

I guess a police state is fine as long as it's limiting "evil" corporations from "raping the people."

Pssst... they want a police state that suppresses any opinions other then their own.
