According to her son, a 90-year-old woman was forced to strip off her shirt and bra for Oregon Transportation Security Administration agents because her emergency cash set off alarm sensors while she was going through the security apparatus.
Her son Alan Charney told KATU-TV his mother Harriette Charney had to take off her shirt and bra inside the Portland International Airport after a scanner picked up on an abnormality on her chest.
Threat to the republic?
“There was no sanity or sensitivity at all to the work that they were doing,†Charney said.
Mrs. Charney was heading back to the East Coast after a visit with her son in Portland. She carried emergency money in her bra in case her purse was stolen. (Who else has mothers that do this? Mine does!)
Once the scanners noticed the “abnormality,” Mother Charney was diverted into a room for another security check. Her son said she was asked to remove all her clothing from the waist up.
The TSA said in its defense that being asked to remove clothing is highly unusual and they are investigating the incident.
Meanwhile we’re going to be taking in HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF WILD MUSLIMS!!!
Not to worry. I am told they will all be vetted by our glorious federal border agents. They might even reject a handful of them just to show us they are doing their jobs. < / sarcasm >
Had she wrapped a keffiyeh around her head they would have left her walk right through
It never was about safe flying. They used 9/11 as an excuse to search people in violation of the constitution. Now we have to become submissive sheep and bow down before the great god of government.
It’s time to massively overhaul our entire worthless, bloated, POS government.
Uh huh. Like THAT will mean anything.
what kind of a son let’s anyone who forces his mom to take off her blouse and bra to live?
This attitude from the TSA is one reason I quit flying several years ago.
You will comply and strip for your masters. I won’t fly anymore.
Yep. While this is going on, King Barry is making plans to allow hundreds of thousands of jihadists into the country.
I refuse to as well - haven’t flown since ‘95
true but I’d pass on seeing her naked lol
TSA = security theater
The government protecting us from 90 year old women. In the mean time, the borders are wide open.
I feel safe now. Don’t you?
Got to 15:49 and listen to Wayne Fontana tell about his experience coming via air into the US. Quite entertaining, and does well to illustrate the disgusting absurdity of our servitude to big brother.

Years ago, my mother (recently deceased) was on her way from Palm Springs to Florida and was hassled by the TSA who wanted to take her to another room and frisk her. She responded with “No need, I’m a nudist!” and started taking off her shirt right there in the middle of the airport. They stopped her and let her go on her way.
Yeah, the TSA did this because:
A. They wanted to see 90 year old boobs.
B. This woman “deserved it.”
C. They saw something, and wanted to investigate it
D. They are F-ing idiots.
I vote D.
