TSA chief: Passenger screening should be minimally invasive

WASHINGTON - The head of the agency responsible for airport security, facing protests from travelers and pressure from the White House, appeared to give ground Sunday on his position that there would be no change in policies regarding invasive passenger screening procedures.
Transportation Security Administration head John Pistole said in a statement that the agency would work to make screening methods "as minimally invasive as possible," although he gave no indication that screening changes were imminent.
The statement came just hours after Pistole, in a TV interview, said that while the full-body scans and pat-downs could be intrusive and uncomfortable, the high threat level required their use. "No, we're not changing the policies," he told CNN's "State of the Union."
Pistole said that, as in all nationwide security programs, "there is a continual process of refinement and adjustment to ensure that best practices are applied."

"I know things about Spock that you'll NEVER find out about!"
The TSA, at the direction of Mr. Pistole, is molesting children and commiting sexual assault. These are crimes. Pistole, along with his boss and her boss, are accomplices. Impeachment and prosecution are in order.
If the new screening protocols had been in place a month ago, perhaps Republicans would have picked up even more seats in the House and possibly the majority in the Senate.
The main change that will be coming will be to exclude pat-downs of moslem women, because of their religion. The TSA will try to dress it up like they did healthcare, when they allowed moslems and Amish to opt-out without any penalties/fines.
Or, they used the same audience that conducted Kinsey's sex experiments.
There is no fine print on the Constitution that says
*Unless the United States of America has scary enemies. Then everything in this document shall be null and void.
The view from Europeans is just terrible. Traveling to the States has become something to dread. They dread going to the States!!! TSA, visa problems, idiotic customs agents, lousy airlines. “What if I get sick”? “How do I know where it’s safe to go”? You’d almost think the States hates Europeans. The USA is losing billions. What a mess!

100% right!
When the foreign occupier employed the phrase 'fundamentally transforming America' two years ago, that's precisely what he meant. Zer0 has no intention of going quietly.

They will be doing these things only to normal people. They won’t be doing them to religion of peace members. This makes the whole thing unjust, unconstitutional, illegal, and wrong.
To paraphrase the King of England speaking to his barons about the Arch Bishop of Canterbury in the play “Murder in the Cathedral”: “Will someone not rid us of this meddlesome TSA Director?”
This is like being "a little bit pregnant."
