This is getting out of hand. The poor guy survived bladder cancer, had a urostomy bag attached to him and sadly encountered 2 idiot TSA agents that clearly are morons at doing their jobs.
Sawyer is a bladder cancer survivor who now wears a urostomy bag, which collects his urine from a stoma, or opening in his stomach. “I have to wear special clothes and in order to mount the bag I have to seal a wafer to my stomach and then attach the bag. If the seal is broken, urine can leak all over my body and clothes.”
“One agent watched as the other used his flat hand to go slowly down my chest. I tried to warn him that he would hit the bag and break the seal on my bag, but he ignored me. Sure enough, the seal was broken and urine started dribbling down my shirt and my leg and into my pants.”
Ok, we get it. Does you really need to start so many threads about TSA issues? Yes, this is inexcusable, but it could have been added to any of the others you started.
These TSA people tend to be dogmatic. It's my way or the highway ($10,000 fine). They are a bunch of bullies with ruffian attitudes. No room for common sense or listening to anything the "guilty" passenger may have to say. Been there done that, 28yr airline employee.
I saw an interview about his experience. Even days after the occurrence, I could tell that he was still feeling the humiliation, although he was incensed and wanted to get his story out there. I felt so bad for him.

Anyone with an Ostomy would totally understand. I have had one for years and am always careful when traveling. His is the worse nightmare and the uncaring actions of the screeners who abused him compound it. I hope there is a lawsuit involving him and all of those abused by these idiots. Abusing someone in that matter needs to be immediate cause for being fired. At this point those with disabilities or prostesis have been declared second class ciitzens with the behavior of the ex walmart clerks mascarading as security. I would not fly and if they mess with trains I guess its find a ride on craigslist from a stranger.
This is absolutely and totally wrong. When its okay to force people to be assulated when there are ways to provide REAL security which would not require them to be touched or irradiated then we have decended into the first real sign of police state motivated by dollars.
If I hadn't promised a friend to go over for Thanksgiving I would stay home because there is nothing to be thankful for.
