51. I have stopped flying. Many people have stopped flying.
And don't call me a liar. My SIL was traumatized knowing that she had been put through a machine that given a choice she would never have gone throught and won't do so asgain. I spoke to her last week after she returned and I completely sympathize with her.

Do you call all the stories of the myriad of other passengers who have reported feeling the same way 'BS'? It IS virtual rape to many women and I'll thank you NOT to try to speak for women about whom you know nothing.

I could call your OP BS also since it doesn't correspond with the many and increasing reports from passengers across the country.

Children being touched by strangers when their parents teach them always never to allow that?? Even members of Congress from both parties have been appalled by the reports.

So, good for you that no stranger has 'touched' your little girl in an inappropriate way. Too bad you have so little empathy though for the many women and children, little boys also, who HAVE been traumatized by these abuses.

If anyone did to my little girl what was done to other children by TSA agents, I really don't think I could control myself. Which is why it is better for me not to fly right now, until our rights have been restored.

And with so many states preparing to do that, and a bill in Congress also, I am hopeful it will be sooner rther than later.

I can assure you that if the travelling public were having YOUR experiences rather than that of my SIL none of those bills would be necessary.

So I call BS on YOU for refusing to acknowedge a problem that 11 states so far and Congress HAVE acknowledged.
