A retired special education teacher who said he was left humiliated, crying and covered with his own urine after an enhanced pat-down at airport security said he received an apology Monday in a phone call from Transportation Security Administration chief John Pistole.
“First he apologized,” said Thomas D. “Tom” Sawyer, 61, of Lansing, Mich. “And I thanked him. Then I told him off a bit. And he said, ‘Tell me more. What do you think needs to be done?’ ”

Apparently TSA has a human side.
I sure hope the guy, when asked what he thought should be done, said “ISRAELI-STYLE PROFILING”. Common sense, non-PC, totally security-minded, security profiling.
Nonsense. Pistole is worried about a humongous lawsuit.
BS I say...... The TSA director hung up and said ..Whewwwww glad thats over, screw him.

Your cure is worse than the disease. Get out of our pants, off our backs, out of our children's undies and the hell out of our lives!! Effing fascist perverts!!
No, it doesn’t. The closest “human side” TSA has are the gropers and the nudie scanners getting their jollies. These are people that have no compunction treating fellow people as enemy combatants without cause.
It goes back to the pysch experiments of the 50s and 60s that showed most people will shock others they can’t see if they got answers wrong, and increase the shock even when it sounded like the person was being injured by the shocks. Same mentality in play here. Just following orders. Take the scanner or you won’t like what I have to do to you.
He had to, but it should have never happened in the first place.
What needs to change ... simple:
1) Arm the pilots and teach them to defend the flight deck
2) Train the air crews in basic hand to hand combat (Krav Maga or Chin Na or something similar would be a good start)
3) Add bomb sniffing dogs to the screening area for both people and for baggage
4) Profile based upon unusual behaviour like buying a one way ticket with cash
5) Regularly put air marshals on flights or allow airlines to hire their own private armed security officers
6) Return to metal detectors for the vast majority of passengers
7) Save the more invasive scanners and pat downs for people that meet the profile of a terrorist.

Was there supposed to be a ‘sarcasm’ mark here?
ANYONE will get religion and show a human side when you see ALL the ‘peasants’ sharpening their pitchforks and the tar kettles are boiling over while feathered animals are running for a hiding place.
Sub-human.
Amen!
In fact, he's probably sitting there with a study/report that says since AlQaida agents can so easily insert explosives into prosthetics and colestomy bags that all handicapped persons should be banned from air travel "lest they be used".
On the other hand he'll be the last guy in the world to resort to profiles and interviews.
Fire and eliminate the whole damn bunch.
Arm the passengers. Deport the Muslim. Profile them and root them out. Cancel the TSA and IRS and Protect our Borders. Eliminate the useless Homeland Security. Empower the FBI to go get em.
8. Set up a plan where business travelers who fly a certain number of miles per month can apply for a background check and get a waiver for six months at a time to bypass all this BS abnd just make it past the metal detector
What do you think needs to be done?’ ”
Well, as the saying goes~not all Muslims are terrorist’s, but, so far all terrorist’s have been Muslims~PROFILE!
