My 70-year old grandmother was groped by the TSA when she went to visit her son for her grandchildren’s graduation!
I have a family whose women are well-endowed, and we do not want either our cavities probed or our boobs fondled. You are no doctors.
And because you are no doctors, I do not trust you to probe my vagina. I have an IUD, which would make any touch to the cervix painful and could cause perforation. Keep your mitts and the rest of yourself off me and my family!

Dear Fly With Dignity:
I’m a British citizen and have been living and working in China since 2001. I will never fly to the US, as I have no intention of being assaulted. I recently watched a number of videos on youtube about TSA intrusions. My God! What a horror story! Small children, old men and women, nuns!? Do any of them fit the profile of a terrorist in any way? All I could think was, here am I living in China, which the vast majority of Americans presume to be a nation with an iron grasp on its people, and I have more freedom than you do in your OWN COUNTRY! The other thing that came to mind was, surely TSA agents, if they had any moral fiber, would organise themselves and say, “No! I shall not molest that child of 3 or 5 years of age. No! I shall not molest that old man or old woman.”. But, then, possibly after having lived in Germany for 6 years, and having been married to a German, the phrase, “I was only obeying orders!” came to mind. What a very sad and sorry state of affairs this is for the USA. Here I am, a foreigner, with my liberties in hand in communist China. You have my sympathies.

On Jan 2o,2012 I was sexually assaulted by TSA for no reason… and now I am haveing Post traumatic stress nightmares about crazed nazi lesbians nightly. I want to sue! akron canton airport.. Epic fail.
last friday on my way from Akron, Oh to Denver.. I set off the scanner alarm.. was wanded.. swabbed w/ pads on hands and waist then told I needed a full search.. I would have denied it .. but I was on way to help son handle my exs affairs after he died.. and did not want to risk missing plane .. I was felt up and groped.. and told them this was illegal and if I didn’ have to go bury my ex I would be calling the police on them.. and that this felt alot like russia..they kept feelin round asking if it was OK to touch here.. I kept saying NONE of this is OK .. but do what you “need” to so I can make my flight.
I told em last time I flew out of Akron I unknowingly had a small pocket knife in my make up kit I forgot about that went all the way to NYc w/ me.. an they did nothing..
They told me I had some still unknown by me residue on my hands and laptop.. NEVER told me what it could have been although I asked..
said : So .. I should not wash or use lotion to NOT get felt up ..
TSA … FUCKERS!!! I don’t feel safer.. I feel rightfully violated.. In Nov I also flew out of Akron Airport to NYC … there was an announcement on PA saying due to increased security measures we will need to conduct enhanced procedures .. OBEY ! Yes ..they actually said OBEY.. I looked to the man sitting next to me , he was an orthodox jew in his 70′s.. I asked him what country and decade I was in .. he had a tear in his eye..
RESIST this farse !!! DO NOT BE AFRAID .. and for godz sake.. if you have to obey.. tell them the entire time how WRONG it is !!!!
Go Roger Ebert!!!!!!!!!!!Keep your hands off my 74-year-old father is my own seething comment….His big crime leading to a lengthy gestapo-like interrogation recently in route from Florida to Texas? He had $3700 in his wallet. For that he was sent to a private room and where he faced off against the Nazis. The screeners eventually backpedalled when it finally dawned on them he was no drug dealer or master criminal. He doesn’t want to fly again. According to the TSA, he was guilty with no presumption of innocence, and what does the cash have to do with bombs? Is someone with a decent amount of cash (certainly not a significant amount compared to a year’s salary) really likely to blow up a plane? TSA is off the reservation. We the people owe them the disfunding they deserve!!!!
