are they seriously groping people now?

It's either that or those full body scanners that are rather revealing. If you click on the photo, there is a link that explains a little more.

This is seriously horrifying.

It's unconstitutional and has changed all of my travel plans for the foreseeable future. I used to love flying and I was going to start letting my kidlet fly alone. Not anymore.

How do I explain this to my kid? "Well, honey, your options are go through that machine where they see through your clothes or let them pat you down and perhaps touch you places that anyone else would be prosecuted and placed on a list for touching."

What, you don't want your daughter to spend a little quality time with her Bad Touch Uncle Sam? DO YOU WANT THE TERRORISTS TO WIN? IT'S FOR THE CHILDREN!

This gives me ideas. Wonderful, awful ideas.

"Sweetie, no one has the right to touch you or see you naked without your consent. Well, unless it's a government official, then it's okay."

I recently taught her that if someone touches her without her consent, she's to punch them directly in the face. I bet that'd translate really well if I were planning on flying with her ever again.

I used to fly all the time when I was younger. What you have to go through now is just sickening. I worked at the airport for 3 weeks some years ago, and whenever I had to relieve someone beyond the scanners I had to take my shoes off, belt off, and I had to go through a pat down...I also had to go through if I wanted lunch. I got fired due to false allegations, and I just took it cause that job killed my spirit.

also working at two porn stores for 3 years didn't kill my spirit as fast as the 3 weeks there.

I bet.
