Female Passengers Say They Were Targeted For TSA Body Scanners

wiedzmin writes "TSA agents in Dallas singled out female passengers to undergo screening in a body scanner, according to complaints filed by several women who said they felt the screeners intentionally targeted them to view their bodies. Allegedly, women with 'cute bodies' were directed through the body scanners up to three times over by female agents, who appeared to be acting on a request from male agents viewing the scans in a separate room. Apparently this was done because the scans were 'blurry,' possibly due to autofocus problems with agents' smartphone cameras." After hearing the claims, Senator Charles Schumer (D-NY) announced plans to introduce legislation that would require the presence of "passenger advocates" at airports to deal with complaints like these.

Just because you enjoy having your genitals fondled enthusiastically by (most likely homosexual or bi) drooling pervs with a badge and a constant hard-on doesn't mean that everyone is into that sort of thing. Personally I think getting scanned, even by x-rays, really is the better option. Unfortunately my nearest major airport uses the x-ray scanners. Fortunately I don't need to fly for work, which means I don't need to fly at all and I don't. I have stopped flying completely since this insanity began and I will continue to boycott the airlines until it stops. The airlines have the financial power to make this all disappear. What they lack is the motivation to spend the money.

Also, who cares whether the molester is enjoying it? If a rapist doesn't enjoy a particular rape experience will that make things all better for the victim? Maybe it would in your case. I can just imagine you consoling a rape victim as follows. "You're not that hot. Do you really think he enjoyed fucking you? He did it to put you in your place and because it had to be done. Not because he was really enjoying it."

If you happen to be homosexual and you find the TSA goon attractive you might actually enjoy getting your frank and beans and shithole massage. How is that relevant for the rest of us who experience it as the sexual violation that it is?
