Back in February, I wrote a report on being heavily groped between my legs by a woman with the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) at the Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport. I labeled what she did to me sexual assault, to which some people took offense in the comment sections where the column was posted. However, what she did fits the definition of sexual assault as provided by the United States Department of Justice. You can nit-pick definition and intent all you like and can call it what you will, but I will call a spade a spade, and just because I had to "consent" to that woman pawing my crotch does not mean it was consensual. Even airport police were recently warned to expect more sexual assault claims against the TSA for its lunatic decision to further ramp up the invasive "pat downs" of air travelers.
While most people understood the meaning of my column—about our liberties lost to an overreaching state—there were some who voiced their opposition to the report. They said I should have known what the TSA might do, and if I didn't want it to happen, then I should've chosen to drive instead of fly (wow, what freedom!). Others were proud to be the "give up liberty for security types," and bragged about how they're not bothered a bit by being groped on their genitals by the TSA. Because "security," don't cha know?
Still, others stupidly accused me of being a "drama queen." While the report was about the incident involving me, I was also writing for the countless number of other free-born American citizens who've been subjected to similar vile treatment by TSA officers since the TSA's spawning after 9-11. I wrote that I know we have no power to stop them, but I was told to shut up or do something about it. What might that be? Get a group of people to protest at my congressman's office? Write President Trump a letter? Yeah, right.
No, I was not reporting anything new that others have not already said. I was just noting again that the growing police state continues to strip us of our liberties, including our Fourth Amendment protection against unreasonable search of our bodies. This was truly an unreasonable search because there was nothing on my body or in my clothing that would have caused an alert on the "all-seeing" backscatter x-ray machine that scanned me; no metal, no jewelry, nothing in my pockets—nothing. I was chosen at random by bogus suspicion points supposedly generated by the scanner. The alert boxes were placed on my crotch, knee, and ankle. The alerts were lies, which is part of what made it even more outrageous. Targeting of random innocent passengers will accomplish nothing except the "legal" sexual abuse of random innocent passengers.
Instead of lambasting me for simply reporting again on the out-of-control TSA, maybe my critics could consider how we got here in the first place. Cowardly, evil leaders of the United States have allowed the Muslim supremacy invasion of our nation, which has led to all American citizens paying the price of lost liberties because of barbarians who commit mass murder in the name of Islam. For Pete's sake, because of a single Muslim demoniac, every American now has to remove his shoes at airport screening!
9-11 got the police state ball rolling faster than ever before, and instead of crushing the source of the threat, which is people who follow Islam (not "radical Islam," just Islam), our leaders chose to subvert our liberties in the name of "security." Islam should never have been given the status of a "religion" with First Amendment protection. It is a barbaric militant-political system wearing religious garb, and its adherents have repeatedly told us that their goal is to overthrow our constitutional Republic and replace it with a Sharia law system. This is the very definition of subversion, demonstrating that Islam should be outlawed in the United States and in any sane nation that cherishes its sovereignty and security.
At this point, I believe it is unlikely we will regain our lost liberties. I see no one in power with the courage to simply tell the plain truth about the evil nature of Islam, much less to eradicate the cancer of it from our nation. As long as Islam is allowed to legally remain and have First Amendment protection, its adherents will proceed to grow in number, power, and influence, and we will continue to have ever more creative Muslim terror attacks in our country, which our leaders will use as an excuse to further strip us of our freedoms in order to "keep us safe."
But, for now, to avoid a random sexual assault by the TSA, we "drama queens" still have the "freedom" to choose driving over flying. Ain't "security" grand?
Yep.
Awesome.
It is early. They will be here. Jackboot lickers can’t resist these threads. They are drawn to them like a moth to a flame.

CAIR skillfully has used our laws and our weakness against us for decades. Since before 9-11. I totally agree that any person or entity who states that their goal is the destruction of the USA and its citizens should be treated the way they were prior to the 60’s: deport them or deprive them of freedom.
“Islam should never have been given the status of a “religion” with First Amendment protection.

Well said
Great article Gina. Thanks for posting it. I have not been back on a commercial flight since 9-11. I have and will drive across the country.
A repost:
I always do this when I go through TSA, maybe 8 times now:
As soon as the dude puts his hand on my groin I say, “THAT IS MY PENIS. YOU JUST PUT YOUR HAND ON MY PENIS. YOU ARE STILL PUTTING YOUR HAND ON MY PENIS”.
I say it very loudly so that everyone can hear me. I have affected hundreds of lives this way. I advise others to do it too, but note that if you make any move to stop him from fondling you penis you are interfering with his duties and can get arrested. Thus it is best to allow the fondling and make no move to stop it or pull away. One thing that makes them mad is to hold your hands high above your head. They will always say that I can put my hands down, but I keep them raised because it is a far better optic for the (hundreds of) people looking at me, as if I am being terrorized.
But I’m not done: After I’m done being fondled and have retrieved my belongings (and thus am free to go), I look for an older person or child behind me getting similar treatment. As I move away (and it is important to be moving away), I say “THAT IS ASSAULT. IT IS ILLEGAL TO DO THAT. THEY CAN BE ARRESTED FOR THAT”.
The TSA people flip out every time, but as I am moving away from them I am not interfering. I risk getting arrested every time I fly, but it is my sacred duty in the name of freedom to continue this behavior.
PS: At SFO those TSA guys are fags. They go above and beyond the call of duty to fondle young men and male children. It disgusts me.
Sadly, I look around the terminal and see 95% sheeple.
Thank you, Houeto. It’s a darned shame that our only choice is to drive—much more dangerous than flying—across the country rather than fly.
You ROCK, T-Bone Texan! :-)
Thank you very much, FRiend.
I want the world to be a better place, and that begins with me being an ass at the airport.
You made me laugh, too, by the way. You should’ve heard me telling husband Logitech about what you say while holding your arms up. :-D
Glad I can make you laugh.
I do those antics because it costs me nothing and makes a big statement.
You should see the TSA people when I am done with them - absolutely livid!
