13. My SIL doesn't travel regularly. But she flew to NY
two weeks ago and on her way back was asked to go through the Naked Scanner. She was horrified, but when she was given the alternative, she felt she had no choice but to choose the Rapiscan. She said nothing, because she was so intimidated and so shocked that she was afraid to make a fuss in case there was some other horror awaiting her.

But when she got out of there she broke down in tears and told her family she was horrified and felt as if she had been virtually raped. I regret not warning her but I did not know she was going until she called me when she got back. She is not into politics so the subject never came up anyhow. She now says she will not fly again and I don't blame her. I won't be either until our Constitutional rights are restored.
