A WOMAN is suing over an incident where airport staff allegedly pulled down her top and joked about her breasts in public view.

The 23-year-old traveller, from Amarillo, US, is suing the US Government for the emotional distressed she says the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) agents caused.

The woman says she was singled out for "extended search procedures" while preparing to board a plane to Amarillo in May 2008.

“As the TSA agent was frisking plaintiff, the agent pulled the plaintiff’s blouse completely down, exposing plaintiffs’ breasts to everyone in the area,” the lawsuit said.

“As would be expected, plaintiff was extremely embarrassed and humiliated.”

The lawsuit claims that other employees laughed and made jokes about the incident "for an extended period of time".

The distraught woman left the screening area to be consoled but when she re-entered the boarding area employees allegedly started joking about the matter.

It wouldn’t be funny if it was your wife or daughter.

Rush said the new TSA moves are simply Obama’s punishment metered out to America for her voting errors on 11/2. This is an amazing statement - and, probably, a correct one.

As the “don’t touch my junk” guy said -

I should not have to be subjected to a sexual assault in order to travel.

TSA: “Sir, it’s not a sexual assault”

It would be if you weren’t the government.

ALERT ALERT ALERT ALERT ALERT

PAY ATTENTION TO THE DATE ! ! !

DO NOT ASSOCIATE THIS WITH THE NEW SCREENING ! !

If you do, and the other person is familiar with this case, you will look like a kneejerk radical, and will lose any debate with an informed person.

I don't think anybody's worried about that.

This just shows that the pathological, megalomaniacal behavior of TSA agents is nothing new.

TSA Agent: " At the end of the day my hands smell like crotch , I quit!!!!! I refuse to violoate the 4th amendment rights of my fellow citizens!"

Liberal fascism policy is implimented from Homeland Security, to avoid "profiling" ( thats RACIST!!!!/sarc.)

Follow the Israeli security model, Napolitano, or get a new LIFE!!!

Liberal Fascism is now a reality, and the nation rejects them , but this is only the beginning, wait until you see the new tax laws and related Health Care enforcement! Lose your home? You bet!!!That will be the ultumate GROPE!

WE HAVE HAD ENOUGH!!!!

Civil disobediance NOW!!!!!!

EFF the executive branch, may they go down in abject infamy!!!

The Clinton grope standard is now INSTITUTIONALIZED by Homeland Security. SHAME!!!!!! DOWN WITH NAPOLITANO AND OBAMA.

Photobucket

CONGRESS TO DO IMPEACHENT LIST:

1) Obama ( violation of oath of office, Article II Costitution, race baiting, treason)

2) Holder ( violation oath of office, refusal to enforce laws, race baiting, maladministration of justice)

3) Napolitano ( violation of 4th amendment rights of all Americans)
