Funkagenda Tased by Airport TSA

Yikes! Always one to defy genre pigeonholing and famous for making his opinions known, Funkagenda said the wrong (or right, depending on how you look at it) thing to the wrong people. He got in a verbal altercation with the TSA at JFK airport in New York, resulting in him being tasered, handcuffed, and beaten. Funkagenda did not remember the tasing actually taking place, next thing is he wakes up in a hospital with a burning chest, ouch. His luggage has been misplaced as well, hopefully he can find it. Good luck Funkagenda! See the whole transcription from Twitter after the jump.

 

FUCK YOU TSA

Stuck at JFK cleaning up yesterdays mess. Note to self, never point out an airline’s flaws to them. They do NOT like it.
