Craziness. And against the law too, I believe. Can sitting U.S. Senators be detained?

Good for him. Unreasonable search per our Constitution. Good for him. All of us need to follow that example.

He doesn't need special treatment. If a person in front of him, or behind him, was called for a pat down, he ain't any more special. This search is no more unreasonable than a traffic stop search.

This is what Ron Paul is saying on FB:
More info - there was an "anomaly" in Rand's initial body scan, so my son requested to be scanned a second time. TSA demanded a full body pat down and Rand refused.
