John Pistole, TSA Director, doesn't think harassing you at the airport is enough. 25 VIPR teams are already out dishing out genital grope downs at train stations, subway stations, ferries and bus stations and he wants 12 MORE teams! TSA Searches Expand as Opposition Mounts (http://www.thenewamerican.com/usnews/constitution/7957-tsa-searches-expand-as-opposition-mounts - broken link)

How much more HARASSMENT by Government Goons can you take? Are you GLUTTONS FOR PUNISHMENT or what????

You don't need a bill number, although Texas is working to ban TSA gropings with SB29 after the bill in the House easily passed. Evidently some Texas state legislators had to fly recently and were subjected to invasive and even painful pat downs and genital gropings by the TSa that left the legislators sore afterwards.

Why wait for the TSA to take over so much that you will be required to be patted down before you can enter a grocery store? Certainly don't wait until Texas bans TSA gropings. Why not start insisting your state legislators sponsor a bill to ban them, like Texas is doing. in your state??? You can start by asking your state rep to sponsor a bill. They can use the TX SB 29 as a guide.

Its just a suggestion of somethng we ALL can do to force our legislators to help us regain some of our freedom and privacy rights. (Remember, 95% of our legislators are too stupid to think of these things on their own, so, to help them be effective legislators, you have to tell them what to do and how to do it.)

Paul said recent reports that TSA had given children pat-downs made him feel less safe.

"It makes me think you’re clueless, if you think she’s going to attack our country and you’re not doing your research on the people who want to attack our country," he said
