Restaurant Owner Puts Agents On "Do-Not-Eat" List

A restaurant owner near SEA-TAC airport became fed up ... so to speak ... with stories from his customers about their treatment at the hands of TSA agents. So the owner decided to put anyone employed by the agency on a "do-not-eat" list, and the response from customers had been mostly positive.

A blog called "The Raw Story" reports that restaurant employee KC McLawson told a journalist that there are signs on the door saying that TSA employees are not welcome. "We have the right to refuse service to anyone," she said.

McLawson said the owner of the establishment travels frequently, and he can recognize TSA personnel when they come into the café. She said even the police have assisted in escorting TSA employees from the restaurant on occasion.

McLawson said the policy would stand until TSA agents "start treating us with the respect and dignity we deserve." Until then, it'll be no food for the Feds. The name of the café, and its owner, was withheld from the blog by the journalist who told them the story.
