Aviation Strike 3 May 2003?

Group Wants To Bring U.S. Aviation To A Halt For One Day

Feeling downtrodden?

Spied upon?

Over-regulated, underserved, unnecessarily suspected?

Check out www.avstrike.org. The idea behind the site is to propose pilots and aviation workers across the United States band together in a one-day, industry-wide strike to "protect their rights as U.S. citizens."

According to the website, "the Transportation Security Administration has taken it upon itself to become the judge, jury, and executioner of pilots and aviation workers it considers (for its secret reasons) to be security risks.

"They have made a mockery of the precepts of the Constitution of the United States. By using the convenient umbrella of 'National Security' they are strangling the livelihood out of good, honest American Citizens with useless, arbitrary restrictions on flight," according to the web site.

"Osama bin-Laden wants to crush out the American way of life and he has apparently found a powerful ally in the TSA," the site says.

This'll Show 'Em?

AvStrike.org proposes a one-day aviation strike by all pilots and aviation workers in the United States on 3 May 2003.

"We need to send a message to these thugs that we are citizens also," says the site.

"In 1776 the founding fathers of the United States signed the Declaration of Independence to take our country away from rule by decree. The TSA is taking it right back with their draconian, un-American pronouncements and self-made mandates. Soviet style rule is coming to America," the site alleges.
