Full-body scans, pat-downs upset airline passengers (click here for full article)
"Across the country, passengers simmered over being forced to choose scans by full-body image detectors or probing pat-downs. Top federal security officials said Monday that the procedures were safe and necessary sacrifices to ward off terror attacks."Terrorists have won, America has lost, and once again I am disgusted by misguided American practices.
What I wrote to the TSA, who are acting like real terrorists, in their "Suggestion" box:
"Suggestion: Please stop sexually assaulting everyone who has paid to go visit their families for the holidays. Anyone, especially any person once victim of sexual assault, will feel humiliated, degraded, and reminded of their painful experience whether with your pat down or full body scan- both invade privacy in a psychologically detrimental way. The only effects of this are those of terror- so either the terrorists have won or the TSA are terrorists- because I am damn terrified for my basic privacy."
I also forwarded the above message to Rep. Jim Cooper. Maybe this will finally be something he will agree with me on.
