Yes.
Well if it was done, or demanded, by a stranger under ANY OTHER CONDITIONS, it WOULD be a sex crime.
So let’s all put our thinking caps on and try really hard to determine the nuanced answer to this complex legal question.
Yes. I don’t even think police crotch grab and grope when patting down a suspect.
Duh, they are PERVERTS and need to be put on the Sexual Criminal Lists.
This stupidity would come to a screeching halt if enough people flew nekkid.
The New TSA; The Pervert Empoyment Program. Hey ... the feds are soving some unempoyment. / sarc
Yup. I’m not ever flying again unless I am the pilot.
If I fly again, I’ll wear a kilt and opt out of the scan. Imagine the TSA officer’s surprise when he discovers what I’m not wearing under my kilt!
Is it okay to give them a $5 tip after the check, or is that frowned upon? Can you go through the line more than once?
OF COURSE IT IS GOVERNMENT SANCTIONED MOLESTATION.
In other news, Kevin Jennings is reported to be applying for a job as a TSA screener....
What better racket than to offer either humiliating patdown or My Scanner?
They sure know how to extort money.
GWB's Choice. Sure is a class place this America.
Let’s see, should I become a Walmart Greeter, or a TSA agent?
Hmmm, that’s a tough one.
This nonsense ENDS if passengers make the assault a miserable experience for the agents.
But none of this would be necessary if Congress would just STOP IT. Put a d@mn bill on Obama’s desk banning this practice and dare him to veto it.
I have said before, I want to go back to the pre-9/11 passenger screening. Do whatever scans of my luggage are really necessary.
No one will ever hijack a plane with a box cutter again.
I tire of all the security theater when the TSA won’t take care of the real security issues at airports.

You’re a terrorist in a mud hut in Afghanistan. Your buds took out a large U. S. target on 09/11/01. Since then, things have been bleak.
You’ve manipulated tens of thousands of soft-headed people in your region to commit suicide by U. S. military. You’ve been so radical in your actions, that you even have people who should be sympathetic to your cause, turning you in.
Is there anything to be excited about?
Well, the U. S. still allows people from terrorist states to enter the U. S. on student visas. The U. S. still allows people from terrorist states to immigrate to the United States. The U. S. government of the United States still claims this isn’t a struggle between Islam and Christianity. The U. S. government still sides with Islamic adherents all the time, when they wish to opt out of measures U. S. citizens have to abide by.
You can still stand up in the middle of an aircraft at altitude as a group, and exhibit behaviors certain to terrorize other passengers with impunity.
You can still desecrate the hallowed ground of the 09/11/01 attack.
You can still bring suit that will destroy the ability of other religions to express their holiday sentiments, even as you erect minarets so that Islamic calls to prayers can be broadcast over a large area on American soil.
And then there’s the TSA, accosting U. S. citizens at will, feeling up anyone’s wife, husband, children, mother, father, brother, sister, girl-friend, boy-friend, they want to on a whim.
Who cares of someone wanting to board the plane with a mask over their face is races on by, while U. S. citizens get the ‘full grope’ treatment. They can’t profile you know.
So sitting in that mud hut, there IS something to be happy about. U. S. citizens and their way of life is being destroyed. It’s all a matter of degrees.
Is our national persona, the same as it was on September 10th, 2001? If not, the terrorists have won to one degree or another.
Keep it up TSA, terrorists everywhere are encouraged that you will do their bidding, step by step, just as they had planned.
The TSA has joined AQ, as far as I’m concerned.
They won’t pat down muzzies... only law abiding citizens.
AQ has won.
We are now an occupied country.
Maybe if TSA had nuns and priests doing the pat down it would all seem natural. Forgive me lord.
Yes. Try grabbing a woman’s breasts like that at the mall, or feeling a child’s crotch.
