Senator Rand Paul Detained By the TSA

Posted by samzenpus on from the your-dad's-not-president-yet dept.

cervesaebraciator writes "Senator Rand Paul (R-KY) has been detained by the TSA in Tennessee for refusing a pat-down. Apparently an anomaly appeared when he received the full body scan. While he offered to undergo the body scan once more, he was informed that only a pat-down would be sufficient to clear him. He has since been detained and the story is developing."

    I always refuse the scan to insist on the pat down, but I suppose Ron Paul is old enough that a little more cancer won't hurt much.
