A bit of light hearted news from the un-funny TSA...
From
Judge: TSA violated rights of Rastafarian - Boston.com
BOSTON—The U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission says the rights of a Rastafarian baggage screener at Boston's Logan International Airport were violated when he was threatened with firing unless he kept his hair short.
The American Civil Liberties Union said Tuesday that Josue Brissot (JOE'-sway BREE'-soh) was assured when he was hired by the Transporation Security Administration in 2002 that his long dreadlocks were not a problem.
But by 2005 he was being told his hair was against agency policy and he would be fired unless he cut it. Brissot keeps his hair long for religious reasons.
