“”administration noted that fewer than one half of one percent of the 34 million passengers who traveled on airplanes in or to the U.S. last week were subjected to crotch-area pat-downs.””
I am surprised the Atlantic attempted this. Over at DU the folks are incensed.
Let’s see now. There were something like 170,000 TSA gropings last week.
How many Muslim men between the age of 20 and 50 were groped?
Or was Obama too busy groping children, cancer survivors, and grannies to inspect his Muslim brethren?
And since TSA is still on a learning curve re groping, we should expect the numbers to increase. A conservative estimate is the TSA will be able to 8.9 people per year.
Of course, this assumes the groping stops with foreplay.
should be—
TSA will be able to GROPE 8.9 MILLION people per year.
And has anyone seen Muslim women go through the scanners, or get a full pat down?
