Thread: BOYCOTT FLYING: TSA touching vaginas during pat downs

They are trying to make these pat downs so ugly that you won't resist the radiation scanner. Call their bluff and stop flying period until TSA stops violating the 4th amendment with both these scanners and pat downs. We shouldn't be treated like criminals because we've purchased a plane ticket.

New reports out now saying that repeated exposure to radiation makes people sterile. They know that. More of their population control.

Call airlines and explain to them that flying is no longer an option in our lives with these awful security measures.

3 Women Say TSA Screeners Groped Vaginas During Pat-Down

APWe're now aware of three separate incidents in which TSA screeners have allegedly touched travelers vaginas during the new "enhanced" pat-downs. To recap: A blogger in Dayton, Ohio says a TSA employee at a Dallas airport touched her breasts, buttocks, vagina area and "both of my labia"; an elementary schoolteacher from Washington says, "I didn’t really expect her to touch my vagina through my pants"; and today an ABC News employee claims she was subject to a "demeaning" search at Newark Liberty International Airport Sunday morning. This one's the worst:

"The woman who checked me reached her hands inside my underwear and felt her way around," the ABC employee says. "It was basically worse than going to the gynecologist. It was embarrassing. It was demeaning. It was inappropriate." In response to an inquiry from Good Morning America, TSA administrator John Pistole explained, "There should never be a situation where that happens. The security officers are there to protect the traveling public. There are specific standard operating protocols, which they are to follow." Well, it's good to know that TSA screeners aren't actually supposed to go to third base during a pat-down. But do they know that? Here are a few more horror stories:

â–*A 61-year-old cancer survivor from Michigan says he was humiliated after a pat down broke his urostomy bag, leaving him covered in his own urine. "I was so embarrassed and so petrified of going out into the airport and people would see me and quote unquote smell me," Thomas Sawyer tells ABC. "My underwear had dropped to the floor and I'm standing there in front of them with my underwear and had to ask to pull it up."
â–*A flight attendant and breast cancer survivor says the TSA made her take off her prosthetic breast. "She put her full hand on my breast and said, 'What is this?' I said 'It's a prosthesis because I've had a breast cancer,'" Cathy Bossi says. "And she said, 'You'll need to show me that.'"
â–*And here's the story of the rape survivor who was reduced to tears by a humiliating, full-body pat-down.
As Jeffrey Goldberg at The Atlantic previously noted, the TSA seems to be deliberately making the pat-downs as invasive as possible to discourage passengers from opting-out of the full body imaging scanners. During one recent airport visit, Goldberg asked a TSA screener if he was looking forward to conducting the enhanced pat-downs. "Nobody's going to do it," he said, "once they find out that we're going to do." Goldberg asked, "In other words, people, when faced with a choice, will inevitably choose the Dick-Measuring Device over molestation?" The screener replied, "That's what we're hoping for. We're trying to get everyone into the machine."

So are you ready to get back into the machine? Flying Pasties and Rocky Top Gear are here to help. Both companies sell underwear with strategically placed metal that will supposedly prevent TSA scanners from seeing your junk with the porno scanner. Rocky Top Gear's fig leaf metal design is also made with lead-free radiation-shielding material! And by the way, in case you missed it, here's a video showing how easy it is to invert the body scan negatives to reveal the individual's flesh-colored features. As the man in the video says, "All one of these TSA pukes has to do is get a hold of this picture and it goes presto-chango, from not being able to recognize a thing to 'Hey, I used to date that girl!'" UPDATE: Also, in case you missed it, this video's totally fake.

If you own stock or other interests in any company related to the airline industry, you'd better dump it now. Many people have purchased airline tickets in advance, but within the next 4-6 months, the airports will become ghost towns which is my prediction.

And that will be how we turn this back on NObama!
"How do like us now!"

This is outrageous! If this was done to people in any other circumstance, it would be called a sexual assault. This is definitely against our rights under the contitution and there should be a roar heard clear across this country. I'm sick and tired of illegal aliens and terrorists getting a free pass where our laws are concerned while Americans are treated like criminals! Obama has gone too far with this one and he needs to be impeached.

Where are all the religious leaders? This seems to be going way too far, its to cover something up, or, well, heck, its Glenn Beck land.

Something BIG is up....

Where is the outrage?! The American people should find this all totally outrageous, and many act like it's no big deal. I actually had someone I went to high school with respond to a Facebook post about this and say he'd do anything to keep his kids safe while flying. So he's going to let the TSA grope them?!?! I guess I'm just out of touch or something, but I am SO VERY THANKFUL that I don't have to fly for any reason!!

One thing we can do is just to keep spreading the word about abuses by the TSA agents and the real danger of the radiation exposure, especially for frequent travelers, small children and pregnant women. When I was pregnant with my first child back in the early 70's, an x-ray was taken in my 8th month. I found out later that that was a practice used in very few places by that time due to the concern of radiation effects on the unborn fetus. I lived in a backward part of Alabama then.

I keep bombarding my family (not too sure they like it but...) with articles re: these scanners and TSA abuses, and I hope they pass them on!

The dangers of accumulative effects of radiation exposure in any form has been played down and we have to do our best to try to inform others with hard-fact articles.

I think after enough people get the truth and go through the invasive pat-downs you will see more and more outcry. I sure hope so anyway!
