    2. Naked at the airport: Portland businessman strips to protest TSA

    3. This article is about a man who went through airport security and set off a TSA alarm, so he strips down to his "birthday suit" to show that he wasn't carrying anything dangerous. He says the TSA is out of hand and that more americans should do this to protest against it.

    The U.S spends about $40billion on airport security. Also many people don't agree with the airport secondary screening.
