Travelers at Raleigh-Durham Intl Airport report being traumatized by TSA groping. Survivors of sexual assaults feel especially vulnerable–Rape Crisis Counselors say that the “pat-downs” by TSA Agents trigger post traumatic stress reactions, making rape survivors feel that they’ve been sexually abused again.
Tim Ely, a Retired Army Officer who once Commanded Military Police at Guantanamo, Cuba filed an online complaint following a 20 November, confrontation at Raleigh-Durham.
After a TSA Agent groped around his genitals from in front and behind, Ely challenged the TSA wannabe cop to explain what sort of an anomaly turned up on his XXX Naked Body Scan to trigger such an intimate body pat-down.
The TSA Agent told Ely, that the XXX Naked Body Scanner revealed something suspicious hanging from between his legs.
When is all this insanity going to end? Will the incoming 112th Congress have the fortitude to cut-off funding to the TSA and stop this senseless intrusive screening process?
