Did the TSA agent at least buy her flowers or tell her that she smelled purdy?

My Dad said that he was "molested" and felt violated by the male TSA agent who "patted him down".
Next time he flies he say's he is requesting a FEAMLE agent to do his search. He say's if he is going to have his "junk" getting handled he wants to at least enjoy it!!
As an 80yr old widower, I think he deserves a bit of enjoyment!

I just flew and I chose to go through the scanner. I personally DO not like to be touched by strangers, so I was GLAD I could use the scanner. It was NOTHING...15 secs and I was on my merry way and no-body was in my buiness!

People need to remember flying is NOT a right. It's a priviledge, you do not HAVE to fly. If you so choose to do so then you are subject to the rules and regulations set forth.
Use the dang scanner!
Actually, it's a service I pay good money for, so no, it's not a privilege at all.

And every time I've flied since it was put into effect, the machines have been roped off or they've been busy scanning some elderly middle eastern lady or an attractive female, which I doubt is by accident.

And trust me, if they ever pick me out of the line, I'll get the pat down and I'll moan and breathe heavy so much all his TSA workbuddies will compliment his handiwork for years. If they pull that bull**** on my wife, they better be on their best behavior, cause I'll gladly get in some trouble to prove a point and get some media attention around this idiocy.

These postings are really cracking me up. I'm worried the censors are going to move in at this rate

I quit flying. I can drive to most of the places I want to go to anyway. These Minimum Wage Gestapos are killing the airlines.

Are you more of the higher wage gestapo ilk?

Your choices shouldn't be being exposed to radiation or being groped.
That's ridiculous.
Especially since these stupid techniques have not resulted in one single apprehension.
And that people have been able to get through with loaded weapons despite this idiotic policy.
Countries with real anti-terrorist policies are laughing hysterically at our idiotic, ineffectual pantomiming.

Yeah I've accidentally walked through airport security with a knife once (forgot I had it). They certainly didn't catch that, and I sent it through the x-ray machine.
