The TSA agent probably didn’t bother to change gloves between pat-downs, either.

This is an issue the Repubs should jump on fast.

Pass a bill in the House that will do several things:

1. Institute frequent-flyer cards for people to be pre-screened one time and avoid these lines afterwards.

2. Institute medical-exemption cards for people with medical devices to be pre-screened at some location other than the gate, a single pre-screening (similar to frequent-flyer) that will allow multiple access to airports without going through the checkpoint each time.

3. Institute a moratorium on the use of scanners until the radiation is proven safe.

4. Institute a system of surveillance using cameras and undercover officers from an agency NOT AFFILIATED WITH THE TSA to weed out “bad apples” among TSA agents.

5. Any other appropriate provisions.

Pass this bill in the House, send it on to the Senate, and when the Senate demorat-traitor-mf’s block it, SCREAM BLOODY MURDER and don’t stop screaming until the demonrat-traitor-mf’s are fully and totally associated with the worst of TSA behavior.

They don’t change them in between individuals. You are lucky if they change them after they go to the bathroom themselves.

Come to find out, this whole enhanced grope and nudie-pic scan can be avoided.

I recently discovered there is a patented technology that can detect (internal and external on a body) PETN and other explosives. The current nudie-pic machine can't.

It is called LVARS Standoff Detection Raman Spectrometer For Detection of Improvised Explosive Devices. This technology was developed by a company under contract with the DoD and when offered to DHS/TSA by this DOD organization about two years ago, DHS/TSA refused it.

If DHS/TSA used this technology then all we need do is use the usual metal detectors and have the person walk through a LVARS portal (non-invasive, no nudie-pics, no pat-downs, nothing).

Something is up if TSA is ignoring technology that will keep us safe from explosive devices but chooses to grope and take nudie-pics.

But did he fire the agent?

However, a miserably untrained, arrogant and all-around inconsiderate TSA agent made sure he was humiliated instead.

Fixed it.
