A former governor of the US state of Arkansas and potential presidential candidate has slammed the treatment of airport passengers by the Transportation Security Administration (TSA).
Speaking at the conservative "Freedom Summit" in New Hampshire on Saturday, Mike Huckabee said he's beginning to believe that there's "more freedom in North Korea sometimes than there is in the United States," a reference to TSA patdowns and security procedures at airports.
"When I go to the airport, I have to get in the surrender position," Huckabee said while holding up his hands. "People put hands all over me. And I have to provide photo ID in a couple of different forms and prove that I really am not going to terrorize the airplane."
"But if I want to go vote, I don't need a thing," he added, referring to Republican-led efforts to require American voters to provide government-issued identification in order to vote, a move Democrats have said would only suppress voting rights. Full story...
