Looks Like More Aggressive Pat-down Searches at Airports
Beginning Friday, the Transportation Security Administration will start using the new front-of-the-hand, slide-down screening technique for passengers at all 450 of the nation’s commercial airports.
The more invasive pat-downs – which include over-the-clothes searches of passengers’ breast and genital areas – have raised privacy issues among civil liberties advocates. TSA screeners previously used pat-down hand motions to search passengers, switching to the backs of their hands when covering sensitive areas such as the torso.
Yep Now TSA security screeners will be able to feel your tits and grab your crotch. Makes you feel safe doesn’t it?
Passengers who opt not to walk through the full-body scanners are subject to the searches, as well as passengers who set off metal detectors at checkpoints without the scanners. The TSA also picks random passengers for the searches.
So allow a full-body scan where naked photographs of you are produced (and while against policy, its been proven these images can be distributed) or get groped by a highschool drop-out glorified mall-cop waiting to collect their federal pension. And even if you play ball you can still get your bat choked-up on. (yeah I just made a crude baseball pun….)
Let’s face it the next bomber is going to have a condom filled with Semtex up his ass…and guess what will come up next? Yep before you take your Delta Flight to Disney World you’re going to feel a TSA arm in your ass up to the elbow.
Can we just cut the shit with this meaningless nonsense???

Should make the exhibitionists happy at least. HOG!
I’m flying with the cock flute next time I fly….just sayin’
Hey Janet! Congratulations! I just found the straw that broke the camel’s back! I will now stay away from passenger airlines of there is any other feasible alternative! You win! Congestion in the air just got one passenger better!
People think I’m kidding when I say I won’t fly without setting aside bail money.
TSA wants a show? I’ll give ’em a fuckin’ show.
Watch what happens the first time one of those screening monkeys inappropriately touches a child. I would end up being tased and cuffed, possibly shot, if it were my kid.
Well, if they’re going to be hauling out the One Free Grope — er, Lots of Free Gropes!! — Rule, then I’m glad they have to get background-checked the way we do. *eyeroll*
On the plus side, when you combine “you’re going to feel a TSA arm in your ass up to the elbow” with “and grab your crotch” …
You’re getting raped by the .gov, but what the hell, at least they’re giving you a reacharound!
(As for me, I’m going to try to get the screener with the smallest hands and the kindest eyes. And probably eat nothing but taco bell for a week beforehand.)
If all the TSA employees looked like Scarlett Johansson I’d volunteer to be the guinea pig for the new screenings……..
I say tell your kid to scream “Mommy, he touched my pee pee!!” at the top of his lungs.
