More antics from T.S.A. agents. Must take a course on being stupid.

"A TSA agent grabbed the genitals of Texas Republican Congressman Canseco at a San Antonio Airport. The Congressman reacted instinctively to protect his private parts and the Congressman pushed down the hand of the TSA agent. Now the TSA agent is crying and saying the Congressman assaulted him."

How stupid. If genitals were grabbed, the TSA got off easy. And is a hazzard of the job, and I didn't think they were suppose to do such things, like use the back of their hand, etc. Sounds as if TSA agent was not doing it correctly.

When I was growing up ... an assault meant a bloody nose or a whoopin' big time ...... Nowadays .. it's a mamby-pamby push of someones hand.

The agent needs to read the tailors handbook. Specifically the chapter "How to take an inseam measurement without becoming romantically involved".

The TSA person has the right to do anything with you when you buy a ticket. The congress man should be like everybody else and submit to the groping with a smile on his face. I have never been groped like that and never will.

Maybe he was doing it the way he wanted. LOL
There is something perverted about someone who could do a job like that.

That all changed about a year and a half ago when the new procedures were instituted that allowed agents to use the front of their hands and actually cup the "offending" parties and squeeze. A female friend had her breast squeezed by a TSA agent and it was all legal and according to their guidelines. But maybe now they are doing this to congressmen, there might be an opportunity to change the procedures.

I saw a tape a bit back about a Woman at the airport.The tape was taken with someones cell phone. She had gone thru the scanner,then the TSA agent still groped her. The Woman was absolutely Traumatised, I suspect she may have been a victim of rape in the past. Our Goverments attempt to desensitize the American People.
