AK - Legislator refuses pat-down at Seattle airport
Transportation Security Administration officials didn't return a call from the Daily News on Monday, a federal holiday, asking to discuss Cissna's case. But there have been reports of cancer survivors saying TSA gave them extra screening because of a prosthetic breast. The TSA website says "security officers will need to see and touch your prosthetic device, cast or support brace as part of the screening process."
Cissna sent out a statement late Monday saying the body scan showed scars from her breast cancer. She said she knew that meant there would be "invasive, probing hands of a stranger," and that a similar incident had happened three months earlier.
"Facing the agent I began to remember what my husband and I'd decided after the previous intensive physical search. That I never had to submit to that horror again!" she said. "It would be difficult, we agreed, but I had the choice to say no, this twisted policy did not have to be the price of flying to Juneau!"







Well, did this person get threatened with arrest or a huge fine like the guy from Oceanside, CA? If not, why?
Besides, what idiot would believe that in this time of groping perverts and full-body scans at airports, that anybody would try to get a bomb on an airplane? And why would they need to? If they wanted to blow everybody up, why couldn't they just set it off in the terminal? After all, the Nazi gropers from the TSA have conveniently lined them up in a tight little bunch, haven't they?
This reminds me of the WMD BS with Iraq. It's certain that not one of the generals believed that garbage, or else they wouldn't have concentrated their forces in one area so that they could be wiped out by the mythical WMD, right?
It's high time that everybody recognizes all of this crap for what it is. It has nothing to do with protection; IT'S ALL ABOUT CONTROL!
Oh, and allowing these thugs to rob passengers. Sorry. Forgot.
