When there is no line the TSA people should be continually searching each other to keep their skill up.
Problem is, they take your camera and cellphone from you
“I’d like to know because I have a family member who works for TSA”.
I personally didn’t read it as a direct threat. However, this is how I see it: TSA is now being put in the position of being terrorists. They are terrorizing people. How else can you justify a TSA employee humiliating a breast cancer survivor, a bladder cancer survivor or man-handling a little child until they are in tears. The response from the employees “I am only doing my job” falls on deaf ears for the people who have been searched like this and for many Americans. With this administration, I fear we are becoming a nation of SIDES. You either support and promote socialist agenda or you fight it. Plain and simple. You are either a soldier for the government or you love your country. History tells us that this has happened before. Will citizens be asked to round up other citizens, report if they have a garden, report if they are meeting in groups? If that is their respective “job”, do you give them a pass? Just a thought.
I laughed at this guy for taking his clothes off until I saw he was arrested. Also, read the comments...
Probably the same Sam Wolanyk:

Damn good retort!
No doubt that there are some decent TSA people, from personal experience they sure seem to be in a minority as most have an “in yo face” attitude.
I too think this current situation has become somewhat a payback from the nobama libs. A showdown is coming and nobama will lose in more ways than one.
Those last three images are photoshop fakes generated from a nude image of a young woman, processed to falsely appear to be a revealing Xray.
Yeah, well. You CAN’T take your camera and use it when it counts. They have confiscated them in the tubs going through the x-ray machines!

“I personally didn’t read it as a direct threat.”
Well I did and it’s not the first threat I’ve seen or heard about.
“How can you justify a TSA employee humiliating a breast cancer survivor.”
I never did justify that but I’m also not going to hold my family member accountable for something someone else did.
“You are either a soldier for the government or you love your country.”
What are you saying? If my family member doesn’t quit, then he doesn’t love his country? Unbelievable!
“Will citizens,report if they have a garden, report if they are meeting in groups? If that is their respective “job”, do you give them a pass? Just a thought.”
Here’s a thought...I mind my own business...I don’t turn anyone in and I wouldn’t ever dream of doing such a thing. We are talking about airport security here and you are going into all kinds of directions. If an AMERICAN works for TSA, suddenly that person is an agent of the government and spies on friends and neighbors. With all due respect, my family member does the security and goes home to his family...that is all.
Good point!
Please stop posting a fake scan to “prove” these scans can be made into “porn.” It’s a bad argument because your evidence, the photos, are not what you say they are.

“With all due respect, my family member does the security and goes home to his family ... that is all”.
What has occurred with this economy is that many people don’t have the option to just quit. They have financial responsibilities like putting food on the table and clothes on their backs. You misunderstood the entire scope of my thoughts. I am sure many of the TSA employees (whether American or not) don’t want this part of their job; however, THEY HAVE BECOME AGENTS OF THE GOVERNMENT. They may be “following orders” and going home to their families each night but at what cost to the liberties of others? Would your family member tolerate this type of treatment for his own family? Where is the cutoff that your family member wouldn’t do? No, we are not talking about “AIRPORT SECURITY HERE”... IT IS MUCH MORE THAN THAT. Security from tugging on some person’s colostomy bag? Security from strip searching a little boy in public? Meanwhile, the idea that Muslim women can pat themselves down AND not targeting Muslims. So, your concept of security and my concept of security are really different. Look at the big picture with respect to “spying”... this is a test. Will regular citizens become agents of the government without question as to what they are really doing or accomplishing. It’s all part of the job, right? Just a thought.
I don't think there will be either....talk about political suicide.
There will be “unspoken” rules concerning Muslims. We are not stupid. You will not see a Muslim woman being patted down by an infidel. It may not be official policy, but the workers will know not to offend this special class.
“I am sure many of the TSA employees (whether American or not) don’t want this part of their job;however, THEY HAVE BECOME AGENTS OF THE GOVERNMENT.”
I disagree.
“Meanwhile, the idea that Muslim women can pat themselves down and not targeting Muslims.”
That’s all it is...an idea that muslim women pat themselves down. It is not policy and yet you go on as if it is.
“So, your concept of security and my concept of security are really different.”
I’d like to get from point A to point B safe and sound. I would think most people feel that way. If “some” TSA personel are abusing the public, then perhaps TSA should go after them...to hold everyone accountable is crazy.
No hangover!
