Wow, it turns out that airports can opt out of using TSA. They can use private companies for security and the federal government still hass to pay for it. I hope the recent series of TSA incidents will cause more airports to opt out of using this security theater agency.
Find the email address of your airport and write to them and tell them you don't want TSA (touching sensative areas) at your airport.

PS Now let a non-groped passenger blow up a plane and watch the "I don't wanna be groped" crowed come a screaming. It should be very entertaining, blown up plane notwithstanding.
I'm quite sure parents of young children or those who have elderly parents care.
There is something wrong in our country if we are willing to give up more & more of our freedoms due to 'fear'.
The freakin terrorists can walk into our country but, we should subject ourselves to groping by strangers?
I have already written a letter to the airline I fly most & I will NOT fly if I have to be groped or filmed nude in public. period.
Yeah, I guess I'll take a boat to Hawaii next time. A cruise perhaps. I am not going to fly domestic anymore.
But that is easy for those of you who never go anywhere to say stay home or don't fly. Looks like I am going to be renting some RVs this summer.

As usual, the leftists are the ones who are all too willing to surrender their rights to the government. REAL Americnas can figure out that this is not about security but only the appearance of security.
Why are we so focused on planes? A bomb in the LONG security line would kill as many people as setting it off on the plane and it would be a lot esier too. A terrorists could walk in wearing the bomb in a mannor that would never make it through a metal detector and just press a button to detonate it. What reactionary policy woult TSA come up with then? Move the security lines outside the building? Make it illegal to congregate more than 4 people in a group inside an airport? Make coats and jackets illegal? The absurdity goes on and on but never doubt that TSA won't rise to the challenge. If its absurd enough then somone in TSA has already thought of it.
