TSA TRAINED DISNEY, SEAWORLD TO SPOT TERRORISTS

WDW Security functions as the district’s defacto police force and prior to the mid-ninties took a very proactive policing role in the district. Prior to 1996 the WDW Security Vehicles had FLORIDA COUNTY plates and red lights and sirens; however after a pursuit wherein a 16 year old passenger was killed and WDW was sued, the company started restructuring it’s security division to take a less public role, although interestingly enough, WDW Security employees DO NOT carry any Security Guard licenses from the state of Florida ( D & G cards ).

WDW Security Division is now divided into two branches (Resorts and Parks) after the highway branch was disbanded in the late 90’s and motor units assigned to each of the 4 regions began patrolling the highways and roads in their region.

The regions are as follows:

Mike 1 — The area surrounding Magic Kingdom and the North Service Area (where the WDW owned power plants, water treatment facilities, warehouses, are located among other things)
Echo 2 — The area surrounding EPCOT
Sierra 3 — The area surrounding Disney-MGM Studious
Kilo 4 — The area surrounding Animal Kingdom (which includes the South Service Area (where the tree farm and K-9 kennels are located among other things)
Delta 5 — The area surrounding Downtown Disney (includes some big shopping centers, some big apartment complexes where the 10,000+ Disney College Program people live and Hotel Plaza Blvd among other areas)

Anyway, like a major police department you can get into all sorts of specialized assignments, depending on what you want to do:

Plain clothes Loss Prevention Specialist
Plain clothes Retail Theft Operative (Foxes)
Uniformed Security K-9 Unit
Uniformed Security Posts
Uniformed Security Foot Beats
Uniformed Security Bike Beats
Uniformed Security Motor Beats

What do the White House and the Magic Kingdom have in common?

Each is protected by a federally imposed no-fly zone.

That’s because for the past decade, Disney World and Disneyland have benefited from a deal slipped into a 300-page spending bill that designates airspace above both parks as no-fly zones. That means anyone caught trying to chopper into Cinderella’s castle could risk federal prosecution and jail time.

The no-fly zones were put in place ostensibly for security reasons following 9/11 but have stayed in place in what some say is a cleverly crafted plan by Disney to keep pesky aerial advertisers out of its pristine airspace.

The zones over the Disney parks in Anaheim, Calif., and Orlando, Fla., work the same way as those imposed when the president travels, during air shows and during large sporting events. Only Disney’s zones are not temporary.

Backers of the no-fly zones argue that these areas should stay restricted because of the large crowds they draw. They also say that Disney is a major American attraction that deserves extra attention.

“We believe the airspace restrictions over large gathering places like sports stadiums and our theme parks continue to make sense for enhancing public safety,” a Disney spokeswoman told FoxNews.com in an email.

Not everyone is feeling the Disney magic.

Critics say the no-fly zones, which cover a three-mile radius in each of the parks, are only in place to prevent pilots from towing advertising banners over Disney. They also say the no-fly zones will do little in the event of an actual terrorist attack.

In 2003, a conservative Christian organization and an aerial advertising company sued Disney over its no-fly zone. In that particular case, the organization wanted the no-fly zones removed so it could fly banners protesting a gay festival being held in the area.

The Virginia-based Family Policy Network claimed that the no-fly zones infringed upon its right to object to the “Gay Days” celebration, but a judge denied their request.

Stephen Crampton, chief counsel for the American Family Association Center for Law and Policy which handled the case for the Virginia group, argued Disney wanted no-fly zones to prevent competitors from advertising and that terrorism fears gave the company the cover it needed to keep its airspace empty.

“We’re not advertising; we’re trying to reach a specific target audience with a very specific, noncommercial message,” Crampton said in court documents at the time. “But Disney and Disney alone has managed to achieve a total ban, effectively, on such speech.”

The Disney restrictions have been in place since 2003 when they were tucked into a massive $397.4 billion spending bill.

An investigation into the no-fly zones by the Orlando Sentinel revealed that Disney’s government-granted security zones put them on par with those for President George W. Bush’s ranch, nuclear submarine bases and military stockpiles of sarin gas.

Richard Daley, Chicago’s mayor at the time, publicly complained that “Mickey and Minnie” got the no-fly designation before downtown Chicago. Since then, Chicago’s no-fly status was lifted. Disney’s remains.

All along, Disney officials have insisted they did nothing untoward. They have denied bending the rules in their favor and refute accusations they aren’t operating on a level playing field. The no-fly zones prohibit planes from flying below 3,000 feet within three miles of the park.

But competing theme parks like Six Flags and Knott’s Berry Farm don’t enjoy the same no-fly perks.

The Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association, which represents aerial advertisers, has asked the Federal Aviation Administration to cancel Disney’s no-fly zones.

“Disney park officials have wanted to eliminate air traffic over the parks long before 9/11,” Phil Boyer, president of the Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association, recently told the Los Angeles Times, asking whether lobbyists were involved in getting the language in the bill a decade ago.

In 2003, The Walt Disney Company had 13 lobbyists on its payroll. In 2014, that number rose to 18.

When asked recently about Disney, Crampton said the entertainment giant’s arguments grow weaker with time.

“Reading it now, it’s kind of a ‘you’ve got to be kidding me, right?’ reaction,” he told the Los Angeles Times. “In the past 10, 12 years since those cases were argued, we’ve seen no further terrorist attacks of the type that took place at the World Trade Center and no real threat in these fly-over zones. I would say, today, that the case for protecting Disney is even weaker than it was when we argued those cases.”

Multiple calls to the FAA, Six Flags and Knott’s Berry Farm for comment were not returned.

Recently I stayed at the Disney Pop Century resort.  I went downstairs and was amazed they have RFIDed the crap out of the new souvenir mugs.

Whats behind Disney’s new Magic Bands.

At Disney Again has written a very detailed brake down of the Magic Bands.

http://atdisneyagain.com/2014/01/27/making-the-band-magicband-teardown-and-more/

 

 

It’s like George Orwell’s Animal Farm meets 1984 with these CCTV camera cases by Italian designer Eleonora Trevisanutto. Her creations transform dull security equipment into friendly looking animals and in the process she creates security equipment which feels far less intimidating. It’s a really interesting concept and I must say I quite like Eleonora’s brightly-colored creations.

Made for the Italian company Parson, each device has a camera-lens hidden behind a semi-transparent black screen. Attached to the wall with an arm that resembles a tree-branch, each one is designed to in the shape of a tree-dwelling animal.

As you walk the parking areas in the parks, you may notice the “Sky Watch” security towers. Up above all Mickey surveys the land and all of your movements. The length of the guards shifts is unknown.

 

March 27, 1996 |By Jim DeSimone of The Sentinel Staff

Public police officers say they entrust some police work on Walt Disney World property to the entertainment company’s security.

And when they do have business at Disney, police are sometimes asked to surrender their side arms and park their cruisers out of sight, Florida Highway Patrol troopers testified Tuesday.
Disney’s control over law enforcement was detailed further during the second day of testimony in a public-records lawsuit brought by a Windermere couple against the company. Robert and Kathlyn Sipkema are seeking records concerning the death of their son. Robb Sipkema, 18, died in a crash after Disney security tried to stop a truck in which he was a passenger.

To get Disney documents as public records, the Sipkemas must prove that the company’s security force operates like a public police agency. Disney claims its security force is no different than any company’s private security and is not subject to state public-records law.

But Disney officer Susan Buckland testified that Orange County deputy sheriffs routinely turn over traffic violators to Disney security when the incident occurs on Disney roads.

Buckland, the security officer who pursued Robb Sipkema, said the practice has gone on for at least 15 years and allows Disney visitors to avoid a public traffic ticket. Disney issues traffic citations, which carry no fine and aren’t recorded on a motorist’s driving record.

The Florida Highway Patrol also has authorized Disney security to issue accident reports at crash scenes.

”They (Disney officers) relieved us of a lot of unnecessary calls,” said Capt. Robert E. Flemming, district commander for the FHP in Orange and Osceola counties.

Disney security looks much like public police, said Eric Faddis, attorney for the Sipkemas. They dress like their police counterparts and, until the Sipkemas filed suit, their vehicles were equipped with red-emergency lights, he said. They are still using speed-radar guns, Buckland said.

Several troopers testified that public police officers often feel unwelcome or hindered.

Flemming said paramedics for the Reedy Creek Improvement District have refused troopers’ requests to draw blood from suspected drunk drivers on Disney property. Reedy Creek is the public district within which Disney operates.

FHP officials are negotiating with Perry W. Doran, director of Disney security, for better cooperation, Flemming said.

Disney attorney David Evans argued that the Sipkemas are trying to hold Disney to a different standard than other private companies.

FHP Lt. Floyd R. Baker testified that state troopers rarely police Disney parking lots. But on cross examination, Baker said the FHP doesn’t typically patrol any private parking lots in Central Florida.

The trial is set to continue today at state Circuit Court in Orlando.
