Invasion of privacy - The TSA search policy is unwarranted, unjust, and humiliating

Let’s see, starting in January, if the GOP will rein in this monster

Let us pray - :)

Thank you for further clarifications and substantiates of my reading of the U.S. Code on this matter. I am not a lawyer — nor do I play one on television — but I can read the code. It’s good to know that others are seeing my point.

And thanks, especially, for 49 U.S.C. section 40103! That, right there, would be yet another track to take. By piling on their violations of the US Code, we can substantiate our legal challenge to their illegal actions.

Exactly. Every individual TSA agent needs to be prosecuted for violating at least U.S. Code 18 2242, 2244 w/ clarifying definition 2246. At the same time the TSA itself including Pistole and Napolitano need to be prosecuted for not only promoting the violation of the above codes but for publicly violating 49 U.S.C. Section 40103.

Then a lawsuit needs to be deployed against every airport across the country that have deployed these scanners and molestation tactics. They are accomplices. They do not have to hire the TSA. So sue. And sue a LOT.

If enough of us to do this, endless lawsuits they can’t possibly pay to defend against all of them - Yes, we CAN win this! But we’re going to have to shell out some bucks and we’re going to have to be willing to fight. No more whining. Get into the trenches people!

If I gave my 15 year old daughter over to be photographed naked, or to have her breasts and genitals groped, I’m pretty sure I’d be doing jail time. As an RN, I’m required by law to report theses activities to the police and CPS, yet TSA is sanctioned by the government to engage in this behavior. Insanity. Meanwhile, the cargo goes unscreened.
