Michael Yon Arrested at Airport for Not Telling TSA His Net Income

Ain't that some shite? I'm a big fan of Michael Yon and have posted excerpts of his writing many times on this blog. He's the best war correspondent in the business. His arrest and the reasons therefore are simply outrageous. This was posted by Mr. Yon on his Facebook page:

Got arrested at the Seattle airport for refusing to say how much money I make. (The uniformed ones say I was not "arrested", but they definitely handcuffed me.) Their videos and audios should show that I was polite, but simply refused questions that had nothing to do with national security. Port authority police eve...ntually came -- they were professionals -- and rescued me from the border bullies.
