....because multiple daily new threads on GFY helped so much in stopping the tube sites and flood of free content?

:upsidedow

Bingo.

And that's the sad reality of the people here... They're so concerned about shit, yet the farthest they get is bitching on GFY..

Want to really make things change? Get off your asses and do something, otherwise, shut the fuck up, because your constant complaining is getting tiresome.

I did mention that I like my prostate tickled a bit.


Apparently TSA employees are sense of humor-less prudes :upsidedow

That used to be enough.

Now you need to be a good little cog :2 cents:


and btw.. I am doing what one guy can. I have met with my attorney, they are drafting a letter. I'm also a "club" member & contributor to both parties in my state. I'll be having chats at our next monthly meeting(s).

Awesome, then I commend you for being more than someone who's bitching on the internet. You're a rare breed. :thumbsup

Most banks will make you fill out IRS paperwork if you're cashing a check over $5000...

Currency transaction report (CTR) These are based on the size of the transaction. The second possible form is a suspicious activity report, or SAR, filed when the bank thinks you're up to no good with your money.. at least $5,000 and involves money from illegal activities or is part of a plan to violate federal laws and financial reporting requirements.

The "know your neighbor" shit at banks has gotten stupid.. I've had to fill out quite a few CTR reports, but it usually only happens when you get that money in your hand in a bulk amount..

where is Richard? I am sure he has a Canadian angle on this..
in this case i might agree with him.
THIS IS EFFIN NUTZ.

those TSA inspectors are highschool grads, they are not law enforcement but they think they have been selected to be "Uber Cops".
hate flying commercially nowadays.. hate it.
when i go internationally i bring amex travel cheques.. but i think the same rule may apply?

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh :P

all joking aside tho, i have heard rumours that amounts in the 5k range will get all sorts of attention :(

there is also reports of truckers getting stopped/searched with amounts like this 'confiscated' as 'it's suspicious' that a trucker would have that sort of money, and the police department doing the confiscating will be able to keep the funds

by the by, i was raised by an american immigrant family. i have close family throughout Canada, US, Europe etc

At least they say this isn't true. It is damn sure true that if they could do this, they would. Cash will probably be outlawed soon.

Because they hate us for our freedom. Our President told us so. Now we have to do stuff like this and allow agents to grope on our wife and kids at the airport. I'm OK with all of it too because I don't have anything to hide from anyone and my wife and daughter loves it when strangers rub their vagina. It's either that or cancer. You should visit more and bring your family. Otherwise, the terrorist have already won.

I voted Libertarian in all my local elections and the national one in 2012. I was a registered Dem...but am now a registered Libertarian.

And I will vote that way again. I want freedom.

That's what I did Dankasaur. I didn't just "complain" on a message board.

Hopefully all this discussion about what the govt. is doing will lead more people to get angry enough that they too will leave the Repubs and Dems and vote Libertarian and try to get some REAL change in this country. (not the fake "hope and change" that never happened)

Amazed at the attitudes of people on this board. Carrying any amount of cash on your person is very much legal. Carrying cash domestically is none of anyone's business. Since when is the TSA investigating narcotics?

Since the day they went into business. :(

They haven't caught any "terrorists"...but they've pulled in some big drug hauls.

Thanks Richard Nixon for the "War On Drugs" You must be smiling somewhere to see how the govt. is doing everything you couldn't do back then.

Maybe its been answered, but where along the line of getting on a domestic flight were you asked how much money you had, are you a citizen? just keep in the bottom of your bag and shush, unless directly asked.

Its perfectly legal to travel with as much cash as you want, there is no US law against this. However, you have to declare it when traveling into or out of the country and our law enforcement is trained to think no one should carry cash(which is why you get screwed with for having more then about $500 anywhere in the states).

I have traveled into the US a couple times and had to declare cash in excess of $10k, they asked to see it(they didn't count it), they asked why I had it and sent me on my way. As I had a good reason to have the cash and I declared it properly there was no issue whatsoever.

@fuzebox, the TSA is under Department of Homeland Security... clearly all undocumented cash is terrorist related?

my guess is they were bored.

aint that the truth.

In December 1999, I was withdrawing $9900 in $10s, $20s & $50s every day for a couple weeks. Anyone else hoard stacks of cash before Y2K?

Americans are leaving the USA in record numbers now. People are voting with their feet. :2 cents: There are plenty of other countries who are welcoming them and their money, and not groping their balls in the process.

That's messed up... I clicked the link to read the officer's affidavit. Not only was 9 miles over the speed limit called high rate of speed they siezed not only his money but his phone as well before releasing him when the K9 found nothing. Alone, out-of-state, and phone gone:Oh crap

missed this, but yes.

they will let a dog into your car, take their toy, throw it somewhere, scream 'alert' and you have a small army running at you

just cause the guy doesn't like you

true story

With 90% or so of all US paper currency bearing a trace of cocaine that would be an easy accusation to make:Oh crap

100 dollars cash maximum.

This is the only solution! My wife and I came to this conclusion as well and are making plans to leave ASAP...there are just to many idiots with voting rights to ever change the direction of the ship.

crazy ass crackassssssssssss

Ditto...




.:Oh crap



.

The ship is sinking, no doubt about it. While it may be OK today, imagine 15 or 20 years down the road. Look at what they did to the place in only 12 years!

No place is perfect, but you don't have to subject yourself to this nonsense. What you will give up in one area, you will gain in others, and vice versa.

Americans are pouring out now for a reason, and many are working towards getting another citizenship so they can renounce their American one. Not to mention, the tax incentives for living abroad are beyond huge. Even Tina Turner left! :1orglaugh

why the grandparents came to Canada

after fighting jim crowe laws, they left

As I understood it the need was to declare for international travel and not domestic.

oddly, i just came across this:

http://www.cs.virginia.edu/~robins/RFID_Powder.pdf

basically is able to track the bill / serial number / and find out if it's fake at the time of 'payment'

means they'll be able to find out how much money you have on you

snopes, has been snoped

More about RFID powder. And this is back from 2007, so you know they have some seriously updated technology now.

good eye.. i thought mine was recent, but 2008 as well

hmm

Remember.. this was a domestic flight. They never did ask. Because your are correct... I'm not required to disclose this info on a domestic flight.

I have what looks like a "Franklin Planer" which contains my cash, certain cards ( Avis, Marriott Rewards etc ), a pen .. my earbuds etc.

They saw the cash when my bag went through the machine.

Columbia the city and capital of South Carolina? or you mean ColOmbia in south america?
sometimes is hard to understand ppl in here with 2nd grade grammar..

how not to catch a paper case, pg3

btw money orders under 3k each are method of choice for many

I don't think that has been incorporated yet, but probably will be.

article was from 08 :(

weird that the rumours started in 01-03, and then around 5 years later? lol
