Oh ok they listen to us so well that should be easy why didn't we think of that. Search #NoDAPL and see how much our government hears our crys for change. Google medical Marijuana and see how well our Federal government listens. We wish it was that easy see our government doesn't listen to you unless you are the one with money. And lots of it.
Bro you've got a major point. Considering how tight that dress is to that woman's body. I have no idea what that TSA agent if patting down. I guess if she was taken to a private room, the Agent would have done a cavity search.
their "job" consists of doing something that has been proven to be completely useless. A study by the Department of Homeland Security was able to get banned items past the TSA in 67 out of 70 tests. So all they really do is harass people and create a false sense of security for those who aren't harrassed, all while having incredibly obvious racial biases and costing the tax payer almost $8 billion annually. I don't care that they're "doing their job", my point is that their job shouldn't exist in its current form.
I have witnessed an older woman in a wheelchair be defiled this way. They made her take off her knit cap. She was so embarrassed about her thin hair. I cried. Why do we do this?
You could give me all the power you want, I would not want to use it in that way. People who do that are not good people. I do not think that is what "being human" naturally leads to. I know plenty of people who do not abuse their power. Usually, security at check points only peer into my bags. I have had police only peer into my car. I have had a police officer apologise for having to come into my home on receiving a false report of child endangerment. I had to assure him that I was happy he had followed up so promptly because he could have been saving a child's life. We do have officers who get off on power but it is not NORMAL human behaviour. But I do not live in the USA.
when being arrested (not in an airport) i’m fairly certain they have to tell you what you’re being arrested for, at least in canada. it’s your right to know and if they don’t tell you then that could warrant a miss trial later on
Yeah, they give you some bullshit like, "I'm sorry ma'am, it's standard procedure. If you don't comply, we'll have to escort you out." You ask why you're being searched, they say: "I'm sorry but if you don't comply, we'll have to escort you out." Assholes. 😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡
Without TSA, who is going to punish those innocent little Murican who voted for bush, Obama, trump, army of war monger congress? You allow drone strike, you allow not even secret prison without rule of laws. And you honestly think you don't deserve TSA to take away your freedom for safety? American so exceptional indeed.
Maybe the Republicans will being they control congress and will control the presidency. Some of them hate TSA and see it as just another bureaucratic agency that needs to be dismantled or abolished.
Steven Anchundia - This is American paranoia, which would have been utterly unnecessary if America had better and less corporate leaders and better foreign policy stances.
Looks like sexual assault...did you really watch that? I feel sorry for people with implanted medical devices because they are always pulled out and searched. There is a difference between humbling someone and humiliating them.
Kathy There is no reason anyone should be "humbling" or "humiliating" anyone. People are just travelers. They aren't criminals. Innocent until proven guilty, remember? We had one major incident. AN EXTREMELY FUCKED UP DAY. And we threw all of our freedoms out the window in a bill that Congress didn't even have time to read. The TSA is a part of that. And people just go, "Oh, well. If it helps." We were flying for DECADES without the crap we go through now. MILLIONS of flights. And it's not just the pat downs. Caps for emphasis.
Kathy Campbell Wallace - I have a friend who has been patted down like that. Doctor's note, etc... this person has an ostomy bag because of bladder cancer. After the utter humiliation, she refuses to fly anymore.
Marasma101 This shouldn't even be a thing. We flew millions of times before 911. We supposedly killed the guys who were responsible. We went and killed people who weren't even involved. There's no reason to treat American citizens like this. WE didn't do anything.
Thomypark Yea, because the TSA has stopped SO MANY terrorists. Give me a break. They haven't stopped ONE thing. Not ONE. So all they are doing is harassing US citizens.
Oh, and just so you know, freedom in the context you are referring to is just an illusion meant to make the average person feel as though they have some sort of power and control, when in reality they truly don't. So any point of losing freedom is automatically moot seeing that there was never no freedom in that context to begin with. There is no freedom in that context and there never was.
I don't even care what you have to say about the TSA at this point, it was your last comment that was disgusting. You clearly have no respect for anyone else and I pity those around you who have to deal with your shit in daily life.
+Jack Bubbles The outlook of an idiotic and shallow person. I bet you're a liberal. Please spew some more nonsensical shit for me. You are about as insightful and intellectual as Britney Spears so please tell me more.
"put her hands inside my underwear against my will." "not the victim of sexual assault." legally, an ordinary person doing this WOULD be committing sexual assault.
No one was anywhere near 'inside (her) underwear' nor was it against her will. It is very clearly part of the agreement for traveling through the airport, even then...she had the option to NOT fly and leave at any point. Airplanes are not the only way to travel.
Bluesteel How often do you fly? If you refuse a check you are pretty much arrested. Random cavity searches are not American. It is the laziness and corruption on the TSA's part. They have X ray machines, smelling dogs, cctv, etc. When will you people cut this B.S.
I've been singled out for checks in Morocco, Spain, Germany and the US. The checks in the US are the most intrusive, most disrespectful and most uncomfortable of any I've experienced. I was treated with dignity and respect in every country except my own.
I am a former Corrections Officer and you only get those types of pat downs in the prison. I have done pat downs in clubs, hospitals and warehouses too. The dress she had on didn't require that type of searching,a wand should have been used.
Simple almost anything, there has been a few cases to where women would carry something underneath their dresses, including the type of dress that this woman is wearing in the video.
TSA needs to let a computer make the determination for a truly RANDOM pat down. Leaving it to the TSA agent's discretion means it's not random. If it were truly random, the TSA agent would not have said, "It might be the shoes and the dress" during the video. That kind of response warrants an investigation of the agent who made the determination that Angela Rye *'needed'* to be patted down. Is the agent a pervert, a racist, a Republican out to punish Democratic journalists or just an asshole?
DarkLight523 a cop that was called in from outside the tsa that they called in was the voice you heard saying it could be the dress and the shoes not a tsa agent so that might not be valid
I suspect the truth is a lot simpler. - implementing a lot of (costly) safety procedures - constantly telling people you are working in the name of safety for everyone. In the end it all boils down to the facts that they want to make themselves look indispensable. A budget of more than 8 Billion, that's what it's about.
What? A republican? Hell lady we republicans hate the tsa. And I personally hate Bush for this home land security crap. Because be his a rino. A republican in name only. He is a liberal. Conservatives stuck to the constitution. Rinos like Mitch McConnell, Paul Ryan. They are rinos. Nine times out of ten they will vote with the dems. They pretend to fight them, but they in the end well out the conservative base.
I WORK IN LAW ENFORCEMENT, IF WE SEARCHED ALLEGED CRIMINALS LIKE THIS WE WOULD FACE LAWSUITS OR CHARGES AGAINST US. TSA IS APPAULING!! IF SHE PUT HER HANDS INSIDE YOUR UNDERWEAR YOU WERE ASSAULTED!!I HAVE NEVER PUT MY HANDS INSIDE AN INMATES CLOTHING TO SEARCH THEM.
You do realize they do completely naked cavity searches in prisons and jails, right? In some prisons they'll stick a finger in the anus of the prisoner.
MobileGamesGuy they really only do strip searches when inmates are being transported and they are also done privately as well. It’s also done during intake as well. The whole finger in the ass. Not sure which lunatic you heard from and never fact checked. But as far as I know. Not in America. I also worked in a prison so I know when the strip searches happen and why. Also inmates lose majority of their rights when they are imprisoned as well.
Angela Rye put up with something that she knew was going to be very humiliating and even though she knew it would be humiliating, she let herself be filmed because it was important to her to let people know how that experience truly is, she put herself through that just to educate the rest of us of the very humiliating pat down people have to go through to travel by air these days, it has to be a better way that TSA conducts a body search.
Leron chambliss Angela rye cries too much. When she’s in an argument on cnn she can’t control her emotions the people she debate against keep a smile on their face. They win she loses.
I'm trying to understand how this was humiliating. Is it because she's wearing a dress? Or just because she was randomly selected? I very rarely fly and have been selected for a body search. A couple of times, something popped up on the full body scanner and they had to pat me down. It was just my clothing, but still. They did exactly the same thing. It was not humiliating. My husband travels all the time and even he's been selected for the pat down. The TSA agent explained what she was going to do before she did it.
Some people cry when they miss their flights, does that mean the airline humiliated them as well? There was nothing over the top or out of bounds about that search. Funny how she didn't cry until the very end, and it was almost as if she realized nothing bad had actually happened to her, but she still had to sell her narrative to the people viewing the recording.
What is the problem here, it is a pat down, they are thorough. Nothing is wrong here except at 1:47 she could be abit more calm, slow and careful, it is like the TSA lady is afraid of touching so she does a quick in and out without warning, leaving the searched party all "wow wtf just happened". Which just makes the whole thing worse for everybody. The guy doing my pat down some years back was abit more professional, talking calmly and informing me when he got to the croch area.
if you "don't see a problem" then you ARE the pro blem for those of us who DON'T want to be sexually assaulted because we supposedly have the "right to travel freely", we won't allow you to give away OUR rights because you don't care
If you do not like the rules and regulations that comes with using a commercial airline you can take your "right to travel freely" and choose another method of travel.
ThomasTekno no not at all. Why? Because I know they do those random checks for a reason and if even one of those checks saves a life, I'm glad to have one.
@@flawlessfootstomper7004 So you want to watch children with heart monitors or wheelchairs or autism who hate being touched or R victims (the r word is apparently DEMONETIZED) to be touched. You need to reevaluate what you just said to the world.
I have so much sympathy for these underpaid TSA agents, just trying to do their jobs. Then they have to deal with these privileged, arrogant snowflakes. Anyone who has a problem should be removed from the flight.
Louis J. West Not at all. That's exactly where I fit. I used to be slightly right on economic issues. Now I'm slightly left. On social issues I've always far in favour of individual freedoms, marriage equality, everything libertarian. But none of us have the right to fly through the air. People need to get over themselves. If they can't be searched then they need to go.
Philip Boardman They aren't just doing their job though... As a survivor of sexual assault & domestic violence, when they have pulled me over to do an extra "pat down" I go into a major panic attack, I don't want strangers touching me... I already feel humiliation & fear from all I've survived, why must I add to it in front of the public eye due to someone in TSA not being trained to properly deal with survivors - assaulting me once again, touching me in places I never gave permission, trying to make me feel like less than human because of the way that they chose to profile me rather than protect me.
Katerina Cosmai Gwiazda - You're dehumanizing them. They're not dehumanizing you. They are agents doing their jobs. And if you were attacked in a way in the past that makes the search more traumatizing for you, that is the fault of the person who attacked you. It is not the fault of the agent any more than you are the author of your own emotions. I'm not blaming you for having those feelings; you shouldn't blame the againts for searching you.
Blu Yogo You agree to TSA screening when you use an airport. You don't have to use an airport to travel domestically. Also, when you are screened then picked for additional search, they ask you if you would rather go to a private room for the pat down. I know this for a fact. It's only a "violation" if you choose to see it that way. She was not "singled out", they do that hundreds of times a day. But to answer your question, my mother/sister/father/brother, would not have been brought to tears because of a over the clothes pat down. Again, if you are brought to tears and break down because of a security checkpoint pat down, you're privileged AF.
Who are you to say how people should emotionally react to this? Are you saying that normal folks would've been raped at least twice by this point in their lives and wouldn't think anything of it, or what?
Disentropic 1- What is a "Normal Person" to you? 2- I am entitled to my opinion, and in my opinion, if you go to the airport then are surprised that you must be searched by the TRANSPORTATION SECURITY AGENCY, and cry about it. You live a life of privilege.
Disentropic 1) There is no such thing a "normal person". Everyone is different. Things can be normal. People cannot be normal. 2) She seemed quite surprised by being searched actually. I don't think you know much about what you are talking about. Have you been searched by the TSA? If so, how did you take it? Did you cry about it? Are you a "normal person"?
You want to exempt certain people from security checks? I assume you don't fly much. If a security pat down is really that traumatic for her, she should take a train.
I'm serious. They will likely freak out when I start taking my clothes off (I weigh over 200lbs), but I would just say, "What? I'm making your job easier."
No, actually that is the point. I'm overweight. I'm sure some guys would love to see a thin attractive girl strip. But me? I want to see them suffer. I'll jiggle to make it worse. Thomas Rock is exactly right.
Yeah women walikng around naked throwing tantrum in pubic space, is not humiliating but this search that happend once when you get in the country is a propblem.
***** what what, morals have been trown down the shiter, why is this so bad, the bitch needs to grow up.women don't want special treatment they want equality, when people bring in drugs and and that drug ends up for children mothers are like what is the police doing.WTF spread your legs B*tch doing this for your own safety, if you don't like it don't leave the country.this shit is the same with a girl that has been puled over and starting throwing tantrum on the police officer like shes a free citizen doesnent have to obey the law.OMG
Sale M "morals have been trown down the shiter" *I'm* talking about the video demonstrating the invasive procedure the TSA inflict upon would-be passengers. What are *you* talking about? "why is this so bad" See my opening post. I detail 2 reasons why. "the bitch needs to grow up" What is immature about not wanting to be touched by strangers? "women don't want special treatment they want equality" I missed the part where anyone said it's more acceptable for men to be touched by strangers. "when people bring in drugs and and that drug ends up for children mothers are like what is the police doing.WTF spread your legs B*tch doing this for your own safety" Did you bother reading my opening post? This stuff almost never works to uncover contraband. "if you don't like it don't leave the country" Or advocate to have this procedure stop. Which is what she's doing. "this shit is the same with a girl that has been puled over and starting throwing tantrum on the police officer like shes a free citizen doesnent have to obey the law.OMG" It's actually nothing like that.
if you want to live in a sosciety with other people you need to obey something that is caled laws, because of your self and others. the so called free inhabitent is the stupidest excuse to get your own way, and by that risk harming others, women have been know to carry drugs and guns in there vaginas.you don't get the right to just walk free with out any checking.That leads to Anarhy. I didn't see any man going against this, because they understand (why, unless they are hiding something)there is one incident with a man, he was forced to move on to another seat because the childrens family didn't want a stranger man siting next to there children, but when a man doesn't want to sit next to a woman in a plane, women winy how dare they. Hmm its the same as touch a man, hmm makes no sence, if a man touches a woman that is sexual asolt, if a woman touches a man the cort doesn't give a damn, women killed children and didn't go to prison, the cort let them loos because, poor women prison is isolation for women.Has happend many times it was on the news. yeah it doesn't work because of the new leftist laws, the people garding are not alowed to check properly on them, I have watched a tv show where neutral people were asked to carry drugs over in the plane one country to the next.Some work some don't. Now im i just to trust a comment of a troll or a whole Tv show that talks about how people end up in prison because of greed and money. "if you don't like it don't leave the country" Or advocate to have this procedure stop. Which is what she's doing. this makes 0 sence, if they advocate to stop this kind search.And if they do stop it people will bring drugs in the country openly. WTF.AND WHAT IS THE ALTERNITIVE, TO MAKE SURE THAT PEOPLE DON'T BRING IN DRUGS???ADVOCATE TO STOP THIS BECAUSE.Lets hug the criminals like Angela wants with migrants with guns. Excuse me, ok and how do we check for people going over borders? when your sooo smart, am really opend to hearing you with the tehnology that we have and the expence that guverment can aford?
Serjio the messed up part is how we are normalizing this. think about it for a second do you enjoy random men grabbing your junk. think about how screwed up we've gotten that being felt up at the airport is normal. this is all because of fear. I guarantee you that most of Americans Islamophobia come due to the tsa since that is the only real burden islam brought to us which allows the us to go through wars in the middle east
Singularity that's why I'm saying y this is messed up due to everyone being ok with it. for safety they will search us. if this happened before 9/11 this would be sexual assault but now it's a job. think about the nsa if before the Snowden leaks we would think people are crazy that the government is spying on us now we just think ya of course they do to keep us safe. what is next to keep us safe
Wel a private room is a dubble edged sword. doing it in public meand the agents know they are watched and might keep them focused on not crosing over a line in public, but might be huliliating to the person being searched. the private room might be less huliliating to the person being searched, but then there are no sitnesses to what happens.
Averil Daniels With all the technology we have, why is a pat-down even necessary. We have the power to see another galaxy but yet we still need a pat-down.
It truly sucks. I was on a school trip abroad and when going through the scanners I beeped, realised I had Metal on my shoes, made me walk back through without my shoes, didn’t beep again and was still made to have a search. I was 13 at the time and had recently been sexual assaulted. I stood there in tears while they did it in front of all my school mates. Thankful my teacher went ballistic at them and they apologised. It still wasn’t okay.
Over the summer I flew to Arizona alone (at 15) with a broken foot in a boot and I felt so invaded when the tsa agent patted me down all over my body even though the only place that there was metal was my boot. She patted me down over my entire body and I just wanted my mom. But flying back to Chicago the only patted down my boot. I am a child and I personally feel as if my mother should've been notified or called to give them consent to pat me down all over my body. Like I said, I'm a child
So she starts crying when she gets the peasant treatment that's been going on for 16 years? She's been able to bypass this for years and now sees what it feels like?
Snowflakery is out of control. Everyone who is randomly picked is searched the same way. A TSA agent probably pats down dozens of people every day, five days a week. They're not looking to power trip on you. Cooperate and you will be #68 of the day and done in 2 minutes. There's no crying in the TSA line. BTW, no one cares how you look getting patted down. Everyone is busy being scanned him/herself, putting on shoes and belts and getting the heck away from that line. It's called life post 9/11. Never forget.
Because it's her JOB. That's what she must do to keep her job and keep the American public safe according to TSA regulations. My guess is, she does the same thing to EVERY woman who gets a pat down. Why do I have to take off my shoes or take everything out of my pockets or dump my Brita-filtered water out of my Hydro Flask and get back in line? Because I'm a grown-up living in a post 9/11 world where college kids are getting run over by radicals and club goers are getting shot by radicals and I don't want to DIE at the hands of a radical trying to get to my destination.
When TSA touches you, they are risking their lives if "you" are carrying explosives, which are usually tucked into underwear, shoes, or false hair pieces. When you fly, wear a sweatsuit like going to the gym, leave all your hardware and wigs in carry-ons for separate inspections.
John C I support Trump too... and you are correct.. I saw other videos about the issue... really... there is some abuses in other cases... something needs to be done about it...
jesot Yeah man, TYT like most leftists, believe minorities and people of groups that have been historically oppressed should be put in a privileged space at the expense of others. This of course isn't fair and in fact racist, sexist etc. but they don't see it like that. Hopefully with the Trump election they realized that not everybody in this country agrees with their bullshit justification and rationality for sexism and racism.
Courtney Henley it's through clothes and for the purpose of safety.. what is the harm? Do you start crying when you get a physical at the doctor? I'm like go for it and it doesn't effect me.
These "strangers" aren't coming from a dark ally... they are at a security checkpoint that everyone in an airport agrees to pass through. Don't want to be touched by these "strangers"? Don't fly.
Minka 40 some people are so sensitive and weak it amazes me. Someone touching you with gloves through clothes while people watch shouldn't make you cry. Getting beaten, or raped, or robbed, or having a family member die is reason to cry not that to me.
+Mr Kosh I do like trains, and never would have realized they have more leg room, better viewing options, better food options, and were a much more relaxed (and less expensive) form of travel if not for the shitty TSA. Yeah, you might not mind your junk being occasionally handled, but as a woman, I really don't want my bits touched just because I want to travel somewhere, or my contact lenses thrown out because they have liquid in their SEALED from the factory containers.
Oh, sorry! ^_^' Yeah, I do love trains after actually riding one. It's definitely the nicest form of travel I can think of. That's awesome that you're a conductor. It's a rough job, at times, I've heard.
Seriously she was all inside her dress and everything. And just today I got singled out for a “random check”. It was on the way back from Mexico the lady didn’t speak English I was scared and confused and they wanted my mom to leave me to get on the bus without me. I’m a minor (15) and I think it’s cause I’m black :/ the airlines are so racist. Really it’s so embarrassing and uncomfortable.
Why is she crying? The TSA woman didn't do anything wrong to her. The woman being checked was being extremely rude and had a terrible attitude about it all. The TSA agent did nothing wrong. What a cry-baby. Now, having said that: I am all for having way better screenings, and I don't think the pat-down does anything. If you want to talk about removing it--great. But... that woman had no reason to cry or to be that antagonistic of a random pat down.
Epyrian if you believe getting your crouch touched is no big deal then your part of the problem. No where in that video was she rude or displaying an attitude problem I'm for better screening as well but I'm not gonna pretend to disregard the sensitivity of others like you did they grabbed her crouch twice for Christ sakes
Are you dense? You have absolutely no idea what her history is. She could be a rape survivor. She could be an incest survivor. You never know. It is not your job to judge anyone especially as it relates to their body being searched.
WTF are you talking about, and I'll only say this once. This wasn't regular procedure. She's wearing a dress, I know ppl that work as a TSA, no one pats like this..especially in a dress.
Lots of people here have no problem with this, as a non-American I have to ask those people: What are you so scared of all the time? Seriously, are you so scared at every moment of the day that you require so much more security than anywhere else in the world? I just see it as sad, I really feel sorry for your country :(
***** I don't mean to be insulting, but number 1 in what way? I know its a very American thing to say you are number 1 but I don't understand that at all...I'll never argue that for over a century the USA was without a doubt the best country in the world, but that hasn't been true for at least 50 years if not way longer and I want to try and understand what you mean. They were the best when they were founded because it was a new way of doing things, but over time it has become an empire and has abandoned most of their founding principals to become exactly like those they rebelled against.
Keatrith Amakiir a lot of people hate this country, and a lot of terrorist groups would love to come here and reap havoc, so that's why there is so much security, and especially after 9/11.
Keatrith Amakiir Don't believe everything you hear!!! America isn't what you think it is, and a lot of Americans don't see this country as #1. And people from the "hood" or ghetto, as one might call it are not scared as you put it because we have a lot of obstacles that we have to deal constantly. It's those proud white Americans who feel threatened by the rest of the 🌎 because they like their way of life is in jeopardy.
J P Yes the procedure will always sucks. Does America need all these security giant check if your government lives withing their means? They invade many countries and take all their wealth to feed you people's excess and all we see is that you people applaud the them for invading these countries without a cause...and now your government lives in fear of attack or retaliation from these foreign countries and the effect of it is the rigorous head breaking body checks...well all I have to say is that you people should live with it .
Obama sucks. Obama was the crooked politician who imposed the so-called enhanced pat down after he had intentionally allowed the underwear bomber to come to the USA by plane. This case of TSA tyranny also happened when Obama was in control of the TSA. Yet the leftists just pretend this had nothing to do with Obama. Disgusting Obama minions.
It;s the new world crap . BUT was watching her pat down, That is damn ridiculous patting on the arms where there is nothing there at all. TSA is why tickets are so damn expensive. the pay for that service due to 9/11 ff attack. it's a money maker and a tax salary taker. Untrained uneducated gestapo tactics to keep fear in the public.
Yeah, I think it's time to lighten up on these laws just a bit. Land of free sure has a lot of rules and conditions. You wouldn't get this in Australia.
Well, yes, you wouldn't get this in Australia. However, there's a simple reason for that. Nobody is looking to blow Australia to the moon. Jihadists are concerned with the U.S. and Europe.
cocacola150dr why do these so called "jihadists" want america and europe burnt to the ground?...can u answer me that question im from South Africa, i dont really know about these things
Dr. Music: Our culture goes directly against theirs. They hate our way of life essentially. They believe that women should be controlled, not allowed to show skin, etc. They believe that all "infidels" (those they view as inferior to them) should be killed. They target the U.S. and Europe specifically because those are areas leading the charge against them.
Dr. Music same as the crusades/ concentration camps not just for Jewish but anyone that wasn't fitting into their mold that's why ...Its because we all think we're right when the facts are we have no f****** clue. you may think it's because we're invading their Nation but the truth is if the shoe was on the other foot they would do it to us. people or gullible and the only way that they know how to control masses is to divide them against each other so that they don't focus on the fact that they're being fooled by someone ....who has absolutely no proof of their religion being the only one to their salvation. believe me love brings us closer fear drives us apart. no one is right just and only love is ...
Its more about taking away your dignity. Women are sensitive to random strangers touching your privates. Some people could just abuse there power and go overboard with the touching and if you or a loved one reacts to it your the problem not them. Not to say that happens everytime but its much more likely now.
6:07: it’s not about “public safety”, it’s about belittling subjects. I will never fly in the US. I drove from California to Pennsylvania to see my sister and am so happy I avoid the airport.
This is the problem with the world today. We deem stories like this as things we should ignore when these are the EXACT things we need to be discussing. Our freedoms are slowly being walked all over and you have idiots on the internet saying "This is what passes for news!!! lol"...SMH imagine some TSA agent groping your mother or your girlfriend/wife in front of all these people. How would you feel about this "non news story" then?
Surely there can be a greater use of surveillance technology that would further minimize the need for physical contact. An airport security check is not a circumstance where a person's dignity or sense of personal affront should come into question. Granted, you cannot please everybody, but I feel confident that TSA can do better than this.
They did. But since it virtually removed the clothes, people found the machines a violation of privacy, because the screener basically saw the person "naked". Now we have this.
Is the airport a sufficiently sterilized place to put hands on someone's genitals. Knowing that with the same hand gloves, hundreds of people's body passing the border have been touched. Therefore the chance of infection and transmission of dangerous diseases is 100%. How on hell a border police gets the right to touch your intimate body area. It is an airport not a gynecological hospital. If you eager to touch or control genitals, you better install the hospital at the airport's border and have the specialized gynecologist to do that in this way people's health will not be put at risk. But justifying inappropriate behavior of yours by saying ''This is just a standard check and you either let me touch your vagina or I'll arrest you'' it is nothing else but a CRIMINAL ACT and abuse of authority to threaten someone. We should raise our voice to keep those hands from our body. Thank you Rye for letting us know how police sexual assault is protected by law.
I get "randomly singled out" 85% of the time I go in the airport. They search my hair and everything. Feels dirty. Being a brown folk, I expect it. But I don't understand why it happens to her, since she paid for all the extra clearance and has all those credentials..
Toad Medicine It doesn't matter if you pay extra for the TSA Precheck program. If you alarm any of the machines or are selected randomly you must go through some form of secondary screening. Some TSA officers may be doing their pat-downs incorrectly but most of them do it according to the Standard Operating Procedures. This is the dangerous world we live in and they have a difficulty job with a lot of responsibility. Either go through it and toughen up or don't fly.
+Nastafar I've been going through it several times a year since 9/11. That doesn't mean it isn't getting old. If it happened to all my white friends as much as it happened to me, I wouldn't even bat an eye. I just know there's no point in getting any extra clearance.
I've gone through the patdown numerous times, but if an agent tried to stick their hands inside of my underwear, you can bet I'd be dragging that agent out by the neck to meet the cops and gleefully be arrested for showing them the light at the end of the tunnel.
Each person I see complaining at search could have minimized the issues with TSA by putting jewelry, watches, big or loop earrings, etc into a carry-on bag that will go through the metal detector ahead of you. I travel frequently and the usual line delays are caused by those who are wearing all of their hardware - which they know will set of the detectors. Plan ahead, put all of your "junk" in the carry-on bag so "you" don't hold up the line for the rest of us.
Something people don't bring up is these gloves are being use over and over without being change. You might be being pat down with a glove that has been used on dozen of people. Yuck !!!
TheDtfamu89 exactly pure mental conditioning. we find terrorist. make up false enemies. kill them for Resources. and finesse your puny feeble minds with propaganda. like Wal-Mart plants. a person is smart. people are pure stupid concentrated.
"It might be the shoes and the dress." Her shoes and her dress might have done... what? She didn't set off any alarms. And it was a thin wrap dress. So it is not like she could hide anything in there.
+ocky88 There are guns made of other hard material. It doesn't have to be metal. Also, the point of hiding a weapon is to do it in a manner that would arouse no suspicion normally. People are able to conceal weapons with any sort of clothing on.
ocky88 you could fit enough explosives and a detonator into a tampon sized tube to bring an airliner down. or are you under the impression that there aren't any female suicide bombers... well you love your diversity, this is what comes with it..
agreed that the TSA is useless and needs to be disbanded, however, being a journalist nor flying all the time makes you exempt from a random search. While being a corrections officer and also a gate guard at a military instillation, the term random search means mostly that you are to pull over every ? person. (? = whatever number is deemed necessary) for instance we have to pull in every 10th car for random search at the front gate. no one likes to be the 10th car but it is not the fault of the officer that you happen to be #10. DEAL WITH IT OR DON'T TRAVEL.
scott davidson i'm not against the search itself, but rather the intrusive way they conduct it with, which seems more vindictive than it is helpful or practical. at times you wonder what it is they're expecting to find in the tight space between someone's legs that a metal detector can't find. at least in her case they tried their best not to offend her and were making small talk, an average person would be treated much rougher and if they dare protest they'd be kicked off their flight
Submitting to a field sobriety test because you're the 10th car in the line is not the same thing as having your body searched. Stop falsely equivocating. Searches can be done in ways that are not so invasive and humiliating. This is an absurd standard to set for trying to ensure airplane safety.
I was flying home and LAX tsa told me I had to take off my wig to be “checked”. I’m a brain cancer survivor and removing in front of hundreds of people sent me into a panic attack. I was to remove the wig or miss your flight. I was sobbing and the tsa agent says If you had just done what we asked you would already been done. Next time do as you’re told. Also, going to a private room is even worse. Its your word against theirs.
Women on their period frequently get flagged due to bulk or perfumes in the tampons or heavy pads. Men get flagged if they are wearing depends. Tell them before you go through the metal detector/body scanner what they should expect to see on their screens. This usually helps to reduce the pat-down issues as a hand wand detector will not buzz for any of these personal use items. However, if you have one of the metal IUD's inserted, the metal detectors may flag you. Carry your doctors prescription for IUD's, metal bone plates, or other prosthetic devices.
I can almost understand and tolerate the checks but sometimes the attitude of the officers make the difference. I remember being screamed at when i visited Statue of Liberty, the female officer was so nasty that i swore never to return to this attraction ever again. On top of that, I used a TSA suitcase at the airport but instead of using a TSA key to open my suitcase, TSA just ripped my suitcase lock off and told me they had the right to do so.
Didn't seem ,like a grope to me. Just because you cry doesn't make it sexual assault. i've had a pat down at an airport, a guy touched my crotch. Big deal. Toughen up you libtards!
Even though I can't stand Angela Rye or TYT..I have to agree with them here. I've been opposed to this whole TSA thing from the start. If they're going to spend all this money hiring many 10s-100s of thousands of TSA employees, maybe we should just put more air marshals on planes. And vastly increase the security and safeguards on the plane itself to make it virtually impossible to get to the cockpit and hijack. I'm sure there are much better ideas that wouldn't invade the privacy and violate so many innocent Americans, like the TSA does on a daily basis. Ben Franklin was right when he said, "Those who would give up essential liberty to purchase a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety." If this country becomes a full-blown security and surveillance state, then in my view, the terrorists will have succeeded in destroying the country that we love.
She's not shoving a grenade up her vagina, so to think every women or even you had one up your butt, means everyone needs a cavity search is f'n bullshit. It's not like they're wearing a burka...she was wearing skinny jeans. TSA is a f'n joke and the Founding Fathers would take them out back and put them down.
I feel for Angela, but unfortunately this has become a part of American Life. What I don't understand is if she had TSA Pre Check why was she randomly chosen? She should have been on a different line than the other passengers. I have one time or two had the TSA Pre Check on my boarding Pass and I didn't even have to take off my shoes. I just put my stuff on the conveyor belt and went through the metal detector. Done. I am not so sure she was randomly chosen.
What most seem to miss is that a certain portion of the population finds rules and regulations for the "'common people" okay and necessary ..... until it happens to them. Remember a few years backwhen this South America decided to check Senators & Diplomats at their airport, well it took less than a working week to get that turned over, because that was deemed inappropriate. Whereas the same people advocating for harsh regulations for safety reasons should lead by example
Tim Bradley ikr the employee just professionally touched her private area. I don't mind being touch my private area if it's necessary and i believe in that ALL the people should feel the same level of discomfort, which is not a big deal.
ALL OF YOU PEOPLE who undergo pat-downs must get into the habit of asking *"Did you find what you were looking for? "* Make this a NationWide habit. Drive home the profound Absurdity of the TSA pat-down.
By the way I just have to say I enjoy watching people have discussions when they don't speak over each other I'm glad you guys allow us to hear what y'all have to say by giving each other time to speak. I refuse to watch any video where people are just yelling over each other. So thank you for being civilized.
I've had a few awful TSA Agents treat me like a criminal. You pay that $80-$100 preboard passage and are cleared you should get your money back. My wife and I almost bought a preboard check in. I now know its not worth it. Our government always has a kneejerk reaction.
I've been pulled aside and patted down many times. Since I am a young white man, I don't think that it has anything to do with race, color, gender or religion.
The problem is in a private room they can become even more unprofessional and it's just your word against theirs. the three times I got singled out for Pat Downs I made them do it right there in front of all the other travelers so there would be independent witnesses
Of course you need to check the hair you can hide blades in there. You can hide blades in your crotch too. But hey I'm sure the alternative (lets let people bring weapons on the plane so we don't make irrational people feel uncomfortable) is better. Don't blame TSA for the RNG.
To me the attitude of the TSA can make a big difference. They can say "sorry I have to do this" and treat you kindly and still do what they need to do. It is called RESPECT. A doctor has to do some embarrassing things to us but they act professionally and with respect.
Doesn't the TSA already miss the vast majority of dangerous shit that comes by? So how are they keeping us safe?
SeanTheOriginal Minneapolis MN missed 75% of the test subjects sent though to test the TSA.
Preach to your government about that issue, as they set up the TSA in first place.
Oh ok they listen to us so well that should be easy why didn't we think of that. Search #NoDAPL and see how much our government hears our crys for change. Google medical Marijuana and see how well our Federal government listens. We wish it was that easy see our government doesn't listen to you unless you are the one with money. And lots of it.
Sour DarmY Never said they would listen, but it would be more worthwhile than critiquing an agency that has no control over its existence.
Bro you've got a major point. Considering how tight that dress is to that woman's body. I have no idea what that TSA agent if patting down. I guess if she was taken to a private room, the Agent would have done a cavity search.
You don' goofed, TSA. You accidentally harrassed someone who wasn't a poor nobody with no way of fighting back.
It seemed perfectly respectful to me. They're just doing their job. If you don't like what they have to do, then that's a different argument entirely.
thats why she faked cried and did whole stunt.
their "job" consists of doing something that has been proven to be completely useless. A study by the Department of Homeland Security was able to get banned items past the TSA in 67 out of 70 tests. So all they really do is harass people and create a false sense of security for those who aren't harrassed, all while having incredibly obvious racial biases and costing the tax payer almost $8 billion annually.
I don't care that they're "doing their job", my point is that their job shouldn't exist in its current form.
United States of Embarrassment Then say that instead of suggesting that the TSA officials are doing something they're not supposed to.
"harrassed" this wasn't harassment though. just very awkward and mildly inconvenient.
If you're going to touch my junk then I should be able to travel for free,
Apathy Man random check, ok then im flying free!!
or at least higher people that aren't gross.
No it could be a nun and I would still want to ride for free lol
If they touch my meat,their gonna get the pudding.
They should, at least, buy me dinner if I need to take my belt off.
This happened to my mom which is 82 yrs old and her face of shame after they touched her all over just broke my heart. 😠
That is terrible. They have no right to do that, even if they are TSA.
I have witnessed an older woman in a wheelchair be defiled this way. They made her take off her knit cap. She was so embarrassed about her thin hair. I cried. Why do we do this?
You could give me all the power you want, I would not want to use it in that way. People who do that are not good people. I do not think that is what "being human" naturally leads to. I know plenty of people who do not abuse their power. Usually, security at check points only peer into my bags. I have had police only peer into my car. I have had a police officer apologise for having to come into my home on receiving a false report of child endangerment. I had to assure him that I was happy he had followed up so promptly because he could have been saving a child's life.
We do have officers who get off on power but it is not NORMAL human behaviour.
But I do not live in the USA.
This happens to me every time I fly anywhere because I have joint replacements. I am 77.
I always go to the airport naked, to avoid pat down
"Sir, I'm going to need you to spread your cheeks and lift your sack"
Selim Osman "I need to check your colon for contraband sir."
😂😂
At least put shoes or socks on! Airport floors are disgusting!
drakey poo lololol
Did the guy really say "it might of been your shoes and dress"?
Yeah I noticed that too... what did he even mean?
Michael Moretti no like there might have been a metal or like a buckle on her shoe that set off the metal detector
she baited them
No. He said it might HAVE been her shoes or dress.
hellslave isn't it because some times certain clothes can potentially hide different possibly more dangerous things?
Power doesn't change people. It brings out their true colors. IMO.
OOHHHHHHH SHIIIT SON!
best comment. 10 thumbs up
I hate it when police don’t tell you what your being charged or patted down for.
Daughter of Poseidon they don’t have to at airports.
They always say what they assume you did after they pat you down.
when being arrested (not in an airport) i’m fairly certain they have to tell you what you’re being arrested for, at least in canada. it’s your right to know and if they don’t tell you then that could warrant a miss trial later on
Yeah, they give you some bullshit like, "I'm sorry ma'am, it's standard procedure. If you don't comply, we'll have to escort you out."
You ask why you're being searched, they say:
"I'm sorry but if you don't comply, we'll have to escort you out."
Assholes.
😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡
They can pay you down once they detain you, no arrest or charges are necessary
TSA is worse than useless. Time to get rid of it.
Geospasmic just a security theatre.
you want Full-body scanners?
Without TSA, who is going to punish those innocent little Murican who voted for bush, Obama, trump, army of war monger congress? You allow drone strike, you allow not even secret prison without rule of laws. And you honestly think you don't deserve TSA to take away your freedom for safety? American so exceptional indeed.
Geospasmic

Maybe the Republicans will being they control congress and will control the presidency. Some of them hate TSA and see it as just another bureaucratic agency that needs to be dismantled or abolished.
This is what you get for not keep the government accountable

Lol... There are million dollar lawsuits against employers for less... It's kinda funny the carrying standards of people for the illusion of "Safety"
*****
Yes it is, you know before you fly you are subject to random pat downs and they ask you to consent before they carry it out.
Yeah she had a choice in the same way you have a choice when someone points a gun at you and "asks" for you wallet.
This happened to me as well. I felt molested and embarressed. I felt as if I was singled out.
Looks like sexual assault...did you really watch that? I feel sorry for people with implanted medical devices because they are always pulled out and searched. There is a difference between humbling someone and humiliating them.
Kathy There is no reason anyone should be "humbling" or "humiliating" anyone. People are just travelers. They aren't criminals. Innocent until proven guilty, remember? We had one major incident. AN EXTREMELY FUCKED UP DAY. And we threw all of our freedoms out the window in a bill that Congress didn't even have time to read. The TSA is a part of that. And people just go, "Oh, well. If it helps." We were flying for DECADES without the crap we go through now. MILLIONS of flights. And it's not just the pat downs.
Caps for emphasis.
Kathy Campbell Wallace - I have a friend who has been patted down like that. Doctor's note, etc... this person has an ostomy bag because of bladder cancer. After the utter humiliation, she refuses to fly anymore.
what happened to Ana, yes. This not so much. The agent put her hands behind Ana's underwear, front and back
Marasma101 This shouldn't even be a thing. We flew millions of times before 911. We supposedly killed the guys who were responsible. We went and killed people who weren't even involved. There's no reason to treat American citizens like this. WE didn't do anything.
Kathy Campbell Wallace yeah I can't go through the metal detectors so that's what it's like for the every flight coming and going.
Nothing says "Freedom" like "Spread your legs and put your hands UP!"
Thomypark Yea, because the TSA has stopped SO MANY terrorists. Give me a break. They haven't stopped ONE thing. Not ONE. So all they are doing is harassing US citizens.
69QuIzAcK69
Well it works.
Oh, and just so you know, freedom in the context you are referring to is just an illusion meant to make the average person feel as though they have some sort of power and control, when in reality they truly don't. So any point of losing freedom is automatically moot seeing that there was never no freedom in that context to begin with. There is no freedom in that context and there never was.
I don't even care what you have to say about the TSA at this point, it was your last comment that was disgusting. You clearly have no respect for anyone else and I pity those around you who have to deal with your shit in daily life.

"put her hands inside my underwear against my will."
"not the victim of sexual assault."
legally, an ordinary person doing this WOULD be committing sexual assault.
No, that's actually not true.
@Mark Hogan
Go ahead and do it then, society will be better when you're in prison.
No one was anywhere near 'inside (her) underwear' nor was it against her will. It is very clearly part of the agreement for traveling through the airport, even then...she had the option to NOT fly and leave at any point. Airplanes are not the only way to travel.
Bluesteel
How often do you fly? If you refuse a check you are pretty much arrested. Random cavity searches are not American. It is the laziness and corruption on the TSA's part. They have X ray machines, smelling dogs, cctv, etc. When will you people cut this B.S.
i kow people who work for the TSA. they don't do random cavity searches you literally just made that up.
I've been singled out for checks in Morocco, Spain, Germany and the US. The checks in the US are the most intrusive, most disrespectful and most uncomfortable of any I've experienced. I was treated with dignity and respect in every country except my own.
Stroking her hair? They think they'll find a bomb in a strand of hair?
philpot kentucky they used a utensil in 9/11
Maybe a knife or an erect penis. You never know - you know? #freekanye
philpot kentucky you can hide things like razor blades in your hair.
Do they stroke white women's hair to prevent lice and bugs from getting on the plane?
So you think they only look for bombs.

Take the bus babe
truestdude And they do it to kids.
I am a former Corrections Officer and you only get those types of pat downs in the prison. I have done pat downs in clubs, hospitals and warehouses too. The dress she had on didn't require that type of searching,a wand should have been used.
Touchin Squeezin Assaultin
because the patriot act says so!
I was thinking the same thing. Her dress was so fitted she couldn't have had anything hidden.
Wrong. I'm handicapped and I get this every time I fly. I just dont make a big deal about it
That's absurd. Plastic and/organic explosives dont show on a wand. That what they're trying to clear
She had already walked thru a metal detector
She's wearing a tight dress
Wtf could she hide in there
Knife? Drugs? Money?
a rotten vagina can be pretty deadly
TheSteinbitt drugs yup a true mule . . . Wtf
Simple almost anything, there has been a few cases to where women would carry something underneath their dresses, including the type of dress that this woman is wearing in the video.
poison flavored condom, swag, diamonds, inhaler
I am not paying hundreds of dollars for a plane ticket for some TSA agent to feel me up. Disgusting!
dont fly then
I felt violated watching this happen to her. I have been a victim of assault before and I would not be able to suffer this.
Don’t get on a plane then

TSA needs to let a computer make the determination for a truly RANDOM pat down. Leaving it to the TSA agent's discretion means it's not random. If it were truly random, the TSA agent would not have said, "It might be the shoes and the dress" during the video. That kind of response warrants an investigation of the agent who made the determination that Angela Rye *'needed'* to be patted down. Is the agent a pervert, a racist, a Republican out to punish Democratic journalists or just an asshole?
DarkLight523 a cop that was called in from outside the tsa that they called in was the voice you heard saying it could be the dress and the shoes not a tsa agent so that might not be valid
I suspect the truth is a lot simpler.
- implementing a lot of (costly) safety procedures
- constantly telling people you are working in the name of safety for everyone.
In the end it all boils down to the facts that they want to make themselves look indispensable. A budget of more than 8 Billion, that's what it's about.
What? A republican? Hell lady we republicans hate the tsa. And I personally hate Bush for this home land security crap. Because be his a rino. A republican in name only. He is a liberal. Conservatives stuck to the constitution. Rinos like Mitch McConnell, Paul Ryan. They are rinos. Nine times out of ten they will vote with the dems.

Yeah hmmm biker gang or cop....hmmmmm....i think biker gang
Yea why do law enforcement hafta molest ppl when u can simply exterminate em right??? Pot callin the kettle black???
michael sievers ....Great job for a dirty old lady!
You do realize they do completely naked cavity searches in prisons and jails, right? In some prisons they'll stick a finger in the anus of the prisoner.
MobileGamesGuy they really only do strip searches when inmates are being transported and they are also done privately as well. It’s also done during intake as well. The whole finger in the ass. Not sure which lunatic you heard from and never fact checked. But as far as I know. Not in America. I also worked in a prison so I know when the strip searches happen and why. Also inmates lose majority of their rights when they are imprisoned as well.
Angela Rye put up with something that she knew was going to be very humiliating and even though she knew it would be humiliating, she let herself be filmed because it was important to her to let people know how that experience truly is, she put herself through that just to educate the rest of us of the very humiliating pat down people have to go through to travel by air these days, it has to be a better way that TSA conducts a body search.
Leron chambliss there's nothing humiliating in an officer trying to keep all the passengers safe
Leron chambliss Angela rye cries too much. When she’s in an argument on cnn she can’t control her emotions the people she debate against keep a smile on their face. They win she loses.
I'm trying to understand how this was humiliating. Is it because she's wearing a dress? Or just because she was randomly selected? I very rarely fly and have been selected for a body search. A couple of times, something popped up on the full body scanner and they had to pat me down. It was just my clothing, but still. They did exactly the same thing. It was not humiliating. My husband travels all the time and even he's been selected for the pat down. The TSA agent explained what she was going to do before she did it.
Some people cry when they miss their flights, does that mean the airline humiliated them as well? There was nothing over the top or out of bounds about that search. Funny how she didn't cry until the very end, and it was almost as if she realized nothing bad had actually happened to her, but she still had to sell her narrative to the people viewing the recording.
@@SoCalledchristiansAreFascists ya know what ... no screening for you your special
What is the problem here, it is a pat down, they are thorough. Nothing is wrong here except at 1:47 she could be abit more calm, slow and careful, it is like the TSA lady is afraid of touching so she does a quick in and out without warning, leaving the searched party all "wow wtf just happened". Which just makes the whole thing worse for everybody.
The guy doing my pat down some years back was abit more professional, talking calmly and informing me when he got to the croch area.
if you "don't see a problem" then you ARE the pro blem
for those of us who DON'T want to be sexually assaulted because we supposedly have the "right to travel freely", we won't allow you to give away OUR rights because you don't care
If you do not like the rules and regulations that comes with using a commercial airline you can take your "right to travel freely" and choose another method of travel.
Freden Its almost equivalent to a prison pat down, which free citizens have earned the right to NOT experience.
Leigh Statum You pay to use their services, you follow their rules. Simple. If you don't like it, buses are cheaper.
ThomasTekno no not at all. Why? Because I know they do those random checks for a reason and if even one of those checks saves a life, I'm glad to have one.

I have so much sympathy for these underpaid TSA agents, just trying to do their jobs. Then they have to deal with these privileged, arrogant snowflakes. Anyone who has a problem should be removed from the flight.
Your political compass is way off...
Louis J. West Not at all. That's exactly where I fit. I used to be slightly right on economic issues. Now I'm slightly left. On social issues I've always far in favour of individual freedoms, marriage equality, everything libertarian. But none of us have the right to fly through the air. People need to get over themselves. If they can't be searched then they need to go.
The jerks are the people disrespecting TSA agents who are just doing their jobs.
Philip Boardman They aren't just doing their job though... As a survivor of sexual assault & domestic violence, when they have pulled me over to do an extra "pat down" I go into a major panic attack, I don't want strangers touching me... I already feel humiliation & fear from all I've survived, why must I add to it in front of the public eye due to someone in TSA not being trained to properly deal with survivors - assaulting me once again, touching me in places I never gave permission, trying to make me feel like less than human because of the way that they chose to profile me rather than protect me.
Katerina Cosmai Gwiazda - You're dehumanizing them. They're not dehumanizing you. They are agents doing their jobs. And if you were attacked in a way in the past that makes the search more traumatizing for you, that is the fault of the person who attacked you. It is not the fault of the agent any more than you are the author of your own emotions. I'm not blaming you for having those feelings; you shouldn't blame the againts for searching you.
How sheltered and privileged a life you have when getting checked at a security checkpoint brings you to tears....
Blu Yogo
You agree to TSA screening when you use an airport. You don't have to use an airport to travel domestically.
Also, when you are screened then picked for additional search, they ask you if you would rather go to a private room for the pat down. I know this for a fact.
It's only a "violation" if you choose to see it that way. She was not "singled out", they do that hundreds of times a day.
But to answer your question, my mother/sister/father/brother, would not have been brought to tears because of a over the clothes pat down. Again, if you are brought to tears and break down because of a security checkpoint pat down, you're privileged AF.
Who are you to say how people should emotionally react to this? Are you saying that normal folks would've been raped at least twice by this point in their lives and wouldn't think anything of it, or what?
Disentropic
1- What is a "Normal Person" to you?
2- I am entitled to my opinion, and in my opinion, if you go to the airport then are surprised that you must be searched by the TRANSPORTATION SECURITY AGENCY, and cry about it. You live a life of privilege.
Disentropic
1) There is no such thing a "normal person". Everyone is different. Things can be normal. People cannot be normal.
2) She seemed quite surprised by being searched actually. I don't think you know much about what you are talking about. Have you been searched by the TSA? If so, how did you take it? Did you cry about it? Are you a "normal person"?
You want to exempt certain people from security checks? I assume you don't fly much.
If a security pat down is really that traumatic for her, she should take a train.
I feel like if this ever happened to me, I would strip. If they are touching everything, they might as well see it all.
Autymn Maas lolol
Autymn Maas 😂😂😂😂
I'm serious. They will likely freak out when I start taking my clothes off (I weigh over 200lbs), but I would just say, "What? I'm making your job easier."
Oh for sure. Mostly I just want to make them uncomfortable.
No, actually that is the point. I'm overweight. I'm sure some guys would love to see a thin attractive girl strip. But me? I want to see them suffer. I'll jiggle to make it worse. Thomas Rock is exactly right.
WHERE are the WANDS!!?
Wands dont detect everything.....
Plastic explosives cannot be detected by a metal detectors or wands.
Prior to the pat down and prior to the video
Sure, you get grossly humiliated in public, but at least it's not very effective at all at catching bad guys.
Yeah women walikng around naked throwing tantrum in pubic space, is not humiliating but this search that happend once when you get in the country is a propblem.

what what, morals have been trown down the shiter, why is this so bad, the bitch needs to grow up.women don't want special treatment they want equality, when people bring in drugs and and that drug ends up for children mothers are like what is the police doing.WTF spread your legs B*tch doing this for your own safety, if you don't like it don't leave the country.this shit is the same with a girl that has been puled over and starting throwing tantrum on the police officer like shes a free citizen doesnent have to obey the law.OMG
Sale M
"morals have been trown down the shiter"
*I'm* talking about the video demonstrating the invasive procedure the TSA inflict upon would-be passengers. What are *you* talking about?
"why is this so bad"
See my opening post. I detail 2 reasons why.
"the bitch needs to grow up"
What is immature about not wanting to be touched by strangers?
"women don't want special treatment they want equality"
I missed the part where anyone said it's more acceptable for men to be touched by strangers.
"when people bring in drugs and and that drug ends up for children mothers are like what is the police doing.WTF spread your legs B*tch doing this for your own safety"
Did you bother reading my opening post? This stuff almost never works to uncover contraband.
"if you don't like it don't leave the country"
Or advocate to have this procedure stop. Which is what she's doing.
"this shit is the same with a girl that has been puled over and starting throwing tantrum on the police officer like shes a free citizen doesnent have to obey the law.OMG"
It's actually nothing like that.
if you want to live in a sosciety with other people you need to obey something that is caled laws, because of your self and others. the so called free inhabitent is the stupidest excuse to get your own way, and by that risk harming others, women have been know to carry drugs and guns in there vaginas.you don't get the right to just walk free with out any checking.That leads to Anarhy.
I didn't see any man going against this, because they understand (why, unless they are hiding something)there is one incident with a man, he was forced to move on to another seat because the childrens family didn't want a stranger man siting next to there children, but when a man doesn't want to sit next to a woman in a plane, women winy how dare they.
Hmm its the same as touch a man, hmm makes no sence, if a man touches a woman that is sexual asolt, if a woman touches a man the cort doesn't give a damn, women killed children and didn't go to prison, the cort let them loos because, poor women prison is isolation for women.Has happend many times it was on the news.
yeah it doesn't work because of the new leftist laws, the people garding are not alowed to check properly on them, I have watched a tv show where neutral people were asked to carry drugs over in the plane one country to the next.Some work some don't.
Now im i just to trust a comment of a troll or a whole Tv show that talks about how people end up in prison because of greed and money.
"if you don't like it don't leave the country"
Or advocate to have this procedure stop. Which is what she's doing.
this makes 0 sence, if they advocate to stop this kind search.And if they do stop it people will bring drugs in the country openly. WTF.AND WHAT IS THE ALTERNITIVE, TO MAKE SURE THAT PEOPLE DON'T BRING IN DRUGS???ADVOCATE TO STOP THIS BECAUSE.Lets hug the criminals like Angela wants with migrants with guns.
Excuse me, ok and how do we check for people going over borders? when your sooo smart, am really opend to hearing you with the tehnology that we have and the expence that guverment can aford?
ARE YOU KIDDING ME YOU GUYS ARE CRYING OVER A FREAKING PAT DOWN LMAO GET OVER YOUR SELFS
how delusional are you?
Serjio the messed up part is how we are normalizing this. think about it for a second do you enjoy random men grabbing your junk. think about how screwed up we've gotten that being felt up at the airport is normal. this is all because of fear. I guarantee you that most of Americans Islamophobia come due to the tsa since that is the only real burden islam brought to us which allows the us to go through wars in the middle east
+Sonny J Anyone who has taken more than 10 flights has been searched before lmao. Get over it.
Singularity that's why I'm saying y
this is messed up due to everyone being ok with it. for safety they will search us. if this happened before 9/11 this would be sexual assault but now it's a job. think about the nsa if before the Snowden leaks we would think people are crazy that the government is spying on us now we just think ya of course they do to keep us safe. what is next to keep us safe
Sonny J Pat-downs were already a thing before 9/11.
I was not asked to go to a private room. I was just patted down...
Wel a private room is a dubble edged sword.
doing it in public meand the agents know they are watched and might keep them focused on not crosing over a line in public, but might be huliliating to the person being searched.
the private room might be less huliliating to the person being searched, but then there are no sitnesses to what happens.
Edwin Suijkerbuijk They have to let you bring a witness with you into the private room if you want one.
Actually I really just got it over and done with because I was embarrassed by being selected 😬
cause you're sexy
Averil Daniels With all the technology we have, why is a pat-down even necessary. We have the power to see another galaxy but yet we still need a pat-down.
It truly sucks. I was on a school trip abroad and when going through the scanners I beeped, realised I had
Metal on my shoes, made me walk back through without my shoes, didn’t beep again and was still made to have a search. I was 13 at the time and had recently been sexual assaulted. I stood there in tears while they did it in front of all my school mates. Thankful my teacher went ballistic at them and they apologised. It still wasn’t okay.
Over the summer I flew to Arizona alone (at 15) with a broken foot in a boot and I felt so invaded when the tsa agent patted me down all over my body even though the only place that there was metal was my boot. She patted me down over my entire body and I just wanted my mom. But flying back to Chicago the only patted down my boot. I am a child and I personally feel as if my mother should've been notified or called to give them consent to pat me down all over my body. Like I said, I'm a child
And I'm going to add that before they patted me down they used the wand and it only detected metal in my boot
How dare you treat her like an average person.
They shouldn't be doing this to anyone.
Camel76 this is what people wanted to feel safer, oh and fair because you don't want to hurt anybody feelings. Problem solver - don't fly
O'Ryan Rudis People don't want this. They want to get on the plane as fast as possible.
Camel76 yes they did after a guy got on a plane with explosives in his shoe. How soon people forget.
O'Ryan Rudis TRUE!!! If a terrorist would've got on that plane with an explosive device then what would they say???
So she starts crying when she gets the peasant treatment that's been going on for 16 years? She's been able to bypass this for years and now sees what it feels like?
Snowflakery is out of control. Everyone who is randomly picked is searched the same way. A TSA agent probably pats down dozens of people every day, five days a week. They're not looking to power trip on you. Cooperate and you will be #68 of the day and done in 2 minutes. There's no crying in the TSA line.
BTW, no one cares how you look getting patted down. Everyone is busy being scanned him/herself, putting on shoes and belts and getting the heck away from that line. It's called life post 9/11. Never forget.
Snowflakery = those cowards ok with allowing the government to violate their rights and their person without question.
What rights are being violated, exactly?
Because it's her JOB. That's what she must do to keep her job and keep the American public safe according to TSA regulations. My guess is, she does the same thing to EVERY woman who gets a pat down.
Why do I have to take off my shoes or take everything out of my pockets or dump my Brita-filtered water out of my Hydro Flask and get back in line? Because I'm a grown-up living in a post 9/11 world where college kids are getting run over by radicals and club goers are getting shot by radicals and I don't want to DIE at the hands of a radical trying to get to my destination.
look again dumbass
When TSA touches you, they are risking their lives if "you" are carrying explosives, which are usually tucked into underwear, shoes, or false hair pieces. When you fly, wear a sweatsuit like going to the gym, leave all your hardware and wigs in carry-ons for separate inspections.
She (Angela Rye) isn´t better than other human being... welcome to the real world... and TSA agent just did her duty... no more...
Exactly!
I love how they tried to play the race card. Scumbag TYT.
John C I support Trump too... and you are correct.. I saw other videos about the issue... really... there is some abuses in other cases... something needs to be done about it...
jesot
Yeah man, TYT like most leftists, believe minorities and people of groups that have been historically oppressed should be put in a privileged space at the expense of others. This of course isn't fair and in fact racist, sexist etc. but they don't see it like that. Hopefully with the Trump election they realized that not everybody in this country agrees with their bullshit justification and rationality for sexism and racism.
christopher sharp I agree with u Chris!!
why does it bother people to be touched? i wouldn't care
You should not be touched in the crotch by strangers.
Courtney Henley it's through clothes and for the purpose of safety.. what is the harm? Do you start crying when you get a physical at the doctor? I'm like go for it and it doesn't effect me.
Blankety Blank _ A physical is usually performed in a private room.
These "strangers" aren't coming from a dark ally... they are at a security checkpoint that everyone in an airport agrees to pass through.
Don't want to be touched by these "strangers"? Don't fly.
Minka 40 some people are so sensitive and weak it amazes me. Someone touching you with gloves through clothes while people watch shouldn't make you cry. Getting beaten, or raped, or robbed, or having a family member die is reason to cry not that to me.
This is how shit's been since 9/11. I hate the TSA. This is why I travel by train.
ChaoticButterfly facts
I hate TSA as well.,
+Mr Kosh
Yes it is. After a couple experiences with them early in the 2000's, I decided I would never fly again, unless it was absolutely necessary.
+Mr Kosh
I do like trains, and never would have realized they have more leg room, better viewing options, better food options, and were a much more relaxed (and less expensive) form of travel if not for the shitty TSA. Yeah, you might not mind your junk being occasionally handled, but as a woman, I really don't want my bits touched just because I want to travel somewhere, or my contact lenses thrown out because they have liquid in their SEALED from the factory containers.
Oh, sorry! ^_^' Yeah, I do love trains after actually riding one. It's definitely the nicest form of travel I can think of. That's awesome that you're a conductor. It's a rough job, at times, I've heard.
Seriously she was all inside her dress and everything. And just today I got singled out for a “random check”. It was on the way back from Mexico the lady didn’t speak English I was scared and confused and they wanted my mom to leave me to get on the bus without me. I’m a minor (15) and I think it’s cause I’m black :/ the airlines are so racist. Really it’s so embarrassing and uncomfortable.
Why is she crying? The TSA woman didn't do anything wrong to her. The woman being checked was being extremely rude and had a terrible attitude about it all.
The TSA agent did nothing wrong. What a cry-baby.
Now, having said that: I am all for having way better screenings, and I don't think the pat-down does anything. If you want to talk about removing it--great. But... that woman had no reason to cry or to be that antagonistic of a random pat down.
Epyrian if you believe getting your crouch touched is no big deal then your part of the problem. No where in that video was she rude or displaying an attitude problem I'm for better screening as well but I'm not gonna pretend to disregard the sensitivity of others like you did they grabbed her crouch twice for Christ sakes
Are you dense? You have absolutely no idea what her history is. She could be a rape survivor. She could be an incest survivor. You never know. It is not your job to judge anyone especially as it relates to their body being searched.
antoinehjl They patted her down, and she had a terrible attitude the entire time. I guess neither one of us is seeing something.
Kirk Staten It sounds as though you'd like to have a conversation about whether or not we should be doing pat downs. I'm all for that.
WTF are you talking about, and I'll only say this once. This wasn't regular procedure. She's wearing a dress, I know ppl that work as a TSA, no one pats like this..especially in a dress.
Lots of people here have no problem with this, as a non-American I have to ask those people: What are you so scared of all the time? Seriously, are you so scared at every moment of the day that you require so much more security than anywhere else in the world? I just see it as sad, I really feel sorry for your country :(
The US is number 1 for a reason. as much as you heckle it, it is a great country.
***** I don't mean to be insulting, but number 1 in what way? I know its a very American thing to say you are number 1 but I don't understand that at all...I'll never argue that for over a century the USA was without a doubt the best country in the world, but that hasn't been true for at least 50 years if not way longer and I want to try and understand what you mean. They were the best when they were founded because it was a new way of doing things, but over time it has become an empire and has abandoned most of their founding principals to become exactly like those they rebelled against.
Keatrith Amakiir a lot of people hate this country, and a lot of terrorist groups would love to come here and reap havoc, so that's why there is so much security, and especially after 9/11.
Is anyone going to answer this?
Keatrith Amakiir Don't believe everything you hear!!! America isn't what you think it is, and a lot of Americans don't see this country as #1. And people from the "hood" or ghetto, as one might call it are not scared as you put it because we have a lot of obstacles that we have to deal constantly. It's those proud white Americans who feel threatened by the rest of the 🌎 because they like their way of life is in jeopardy.
i just moan when they do it to me. "mmmmmm mami"
I think I want to travel with you.
Selma - ah, that made me smile. Thank you.
Tell them "I like it when people watch" and slip them $5.00 afterward.
selma, you should travel with me ;)
Selma hot and appropriately uncomfortable
Their intents just to make her feel humiliated and to embarassed her
This procedure sucks
J P Yes the procedure will always sucks. Does America need all these security giant check if your government lives withing their means? They invade many countries and take all their wealth to feed you people's excess and all we see is that you people applaud the them for invading these countries without a cause...and now your government lives in fear of attack or retaliation from these foreign countries and the effect of it is the rigorous head breaking body checks...well all I have to say is that you people should live with it .
Whatever your government does outside will bring the effect of it on you the citizens
Obama sucks. Obama was the crooked politician who imposed the so-called enhanced pat down after he had intentionally allowed the underwear bomber to come to the USA by plane. This case of TSA tyranny also happened when Obama was in control of the TSA. Yet the leftists just pretend this had nothing to do with Obama. Disgusting Obama minions.
Blame the September 11...
It;s the new world crap . BUT was watching her pat down, That is damn ridiculous patting on the arms where there is nothing there at all.
TSA is why tickets are so damn expensive. the pay for that service due to 9/11 ff attack. it's a money maker and a tax salary taker.
Untrained uneducated gestapo tactics to keep fear in the public.
Yeah, I think it's time to lighten up on these laws just a bit. Land of free sure has a lot of rules and conditions. You wouldn't get this in Australia.
Well, yes, you wouldn't get this in Australia. However, there's a simple reason for that. Nobody is looking to blow Australia to the moon. Jihadists are concerned with the U.S. and Europe.
cocacola150dr why do these so called "jihadists" want america and europe burnt to the ground?...can u answer me that question im from South Africa, i dont really know about these things
Dr. Music: Our culture goes directly against theirs. They hate our way of life essentially. They believe that women should be controlled, not allowed to show skin, etc. They believe that all "infidels" (those they view as inferior to them) should be killed. They target the U.S. and Europe specifically because those are areas leading the charge against them.
Dr. Music same as the crusades/ concentration camps not just for Jewish but anyone that wasn't fitting into their mold that's why ...Its because we all think we're right when the facts are we have no f****** clue. you may think it's because we're invading their Nation but the truth is if the shoe was on the other foot they would do it to us. people or gullible and the only way that they know how to control masses is to divide them against each other so that they don't focus on the fact that they're being fooled by someone ....who has absolutely no proof of their religion being the only one to their salvation. believe me love brings us closer fear drives us apart. no one is right just and only love is ...
ricomajestic you have no idea ... have you ever heard the expression stupidity is more dangerous than malice
Its more about taking away your dignity. Women are sensitive to random strangers touching your privates. Some people could just abuse there power and go overboard with the touching and if you or a loved one reacts to it your the problem not them. Not to say that happens everytime but its much more likely now.
Ariel Rodriguez I doubt what you say , there are too many witnesses around for that to be true , they'd all have to be in on it .
@@mikeevans7560They are.
6:07: it’s not about “public safety”, it’s about belittling subjects. I will never fly in the US. I drove from California to Pennsylvania to see my sister and am so happy I avoid the airport.

Joey Barz where's your proof
how often do they change the gloves they are touching you with
They are supposed to change their gloves whenever screening a sensitive area. If you ask them to change their gloves, they will.
everytime they shoot up. but she had ben-wa balls in so....her bad
I wonder if The TSA pervs Sniff the gloves?
They will change the gloves any time a passenger requests it.
Ewwwwww. Wh6 did you say that I fell uncomfortable because you said that.😬🤮🤮🤮😬😬😬
"I dont want to be sexually assaulted"
"Oh no I'm a TSA"
"Oh okay my bad"
You’re a buttplug
This is what passes for news these days? lol
There is a difference between news and commentary. This would be commentary. collegian.com/2013/02/the-difference-between-reporting-and-commentary/
Nature Boy
Is this what happens on a comment on a comment ??
This is the problem with the world today. We deem stories like this as things we should ignore when these are the EXACT things we need to be discussing. Our freedoms are slowly being walked all over and you have idiots on the internet saying "This is what passes for news!!! lol"...SMH imagine some TSA agent groping your mother or your girlfriend/wife in front of all these people. How would you feel about this "non news story" then?
how many terrorist have the TSA found with their patdowns?
Surely there can be a greater use of surveillance technology that would further minimize the need for physical contact. An airport security check is not a circumstance where a person's dignity or sense of personal affront should come into question. Granted, you cannot please everybody, but I feel confident that TSA can do better than this.
They did. But since it virtually removed the clothes, people found the machines a violation of privacy, because the screener basically saw the person "naked". Now we have this.
Anyone condoning this for the sake of safety, do not deserve freedom nor safety.
Can I request a woman to grope me? It's not a sexual thing, I just don't want a man groping me.
Is the airport a sufficiently sterilized place to put hands on someone's genitals. Knowing that with the same hand gloves, hundreds of people's body passing the border have been touched. Therefore the chance of infection and transmission of dangerous diseases is 100%. How on hell a border police gets the right to touch your intimate body area. It is an airport not a gynecological hospital. If you eager to touch or control genitals, you better install the hospital at the airport's border and have the specialized gynecologist to do that in this way people's health will not be put at risk.
But justifying inappropriate behavior of yours by saying ''This is just a standard check and you either let me touch your vagina or I'll arrest you'' it is nothing else but a CRIMINAL ACT and abuse of authority to threaten someone.
We should raise our voice to keep those hands from our body. Thank you Rye for letting us know how police sexual assault is protected by law.
They literally are required to change gloves after touching groins, doing a full body, and whenever a passenger asks
I get "randomly singled out" 85% of the time I go in the airport. They search my hair and everything. Feels dirty. Being a brown folk, I expect it. But I don't understand why it happens to her, since she paid for all the extra clearance and has all those credentials..
Toad Medicine same.. being a brown person who has to travel can be nerve racking today. it's horrible
Toad Medicine It doesn't matter if you pay extra for the TSA Precheck program. If you alarm any of the machines or are selected randomly you must go through some form of secondary screening. Some TSA officers may be doing their pat-downs incorrectly but most of them do it according to the Standard Operating Procedures. This is the dangerous world we live in and they have a difficulty job with a lot of responsibility. Either go through it and toughen up or don't fly.
+Nastafar I've been going through it several times a year since 9/11. That doesn't mean it isn't getting old. If it happened to all my white friends as much as it happened to me, I wouldn't even bat an eye. I just know there's no point in getting any extra clearance.
Being a "Brown folk", lol.
She's been a victim for years now.
I can't look in this comment section. It's disgusting to see what some of you have to say.
WEH
I've gone through the patdown numerous times, but if an agent tried to stick their hands inside of my underwear, you can bet I'd be dragging that agent out by the neck to meet the cops and gleefully be arrested for showing them the light at the end of the tunnel.
I am a 76 year old white lady who has never been treated like that in my entire life. I think that says a lot.
Each person I see complaining at search could have minimized the issues with TSA by putting jewelry, watches, big or loop earrings, etc into a carry-on bag that will go through the metal detector ahead of you. I travel frequently and the usual line delays are caused by those who are wearing all of their hardware - which they know will set of the detectors. Plan ahead, put all of your "junk" in the carry-on bag so "you" don't hold up the line for the rest of us.
Angela Rye is FINE, that's probably why she was singled out...
She's probably like 75% of the reason I watch CNN. In all seriousness though, she may be a target.
This has been going on for years. Everyone was more concerned being safe, while letting our rights be demolished.
Something people don't bring up is these gloves are being use over and over without being change. You might be being pat down with a glove that has been used on dozen of people. Yuck !!!
Nothing inappropriate about the actual pat down. That journalist should win an Oscar for that performance.
It's beyond a pat rown
It's really uncomfortable when it happens, but it's part of the world we live in now.
It's an illusion of safety.... doesn't really prevent terrorism.
TheDtfamu89 exactly
pure mental conditioning. we find terrorist. make up false enemies. kill them for Resources. and finesse your puny feeble minds with propaganda. like Wal-Mart plants.
a person is smart. people are pure stupid concentrated.
You mean terrorists, that does exist.
"It might be the shoes and the dress." Her shoes and her dress might have done... what? She didn't set off any alarms. And it was a thin wrap dress. So it is not like she could hide anything in there.
Remy, right. What gun fails to set off metal detectors?
That old lady was being sneaky when she brutally jabbed her thumb into her body cavity. You could see the lust in her eyes.
+ocky88 the plastic toy guns that gets us shot at Wal-Mart
+ocky88
There are guns made of other hard material. It doesn't have to be metal. Also, the point of hiding a weapon is to do it in a manner that would arouse no suspicion normally. People are able to conceal weapons with any sort of clothing on.
ocky88 you could fit enough explosives and a detonator into a tampon sized tube to bring an airliner down. or are you under the impression that there aren't any female suicide bombers... well you love your diversity, this is what comes with it..
She's hot and really smart I like her and i'm a gerbil.
Sir Gerbil Macintosh SHUT UP GERBIL THIS IS A WEBSITE FOR HUMANS
Get out of here lol go chew on paper towel rolls
ugh you have such low standards
This is horrible. They have no sensitivity training. I’m appalled.
awww, did she have to be a regular citizen? sucks don't it?
she said she flies all the time. in any case this shouldn't happen to anyone
agreed that the TSA is useless and needs to be disbanded, however, being a journalist nor flying all the time makes you exempt from a random search. While being a corrections officer and also a gate guard at a military instillation, the term random search means mostly that you are to pull over every ? person. (? = whatever number is deemed necessary) for instance we have to pull in every 10th car for random search at the front gate. no one likes to be the 10th car but it is not the fault of the officer that you happen to be #10. DEAL WITH IT OR DON'T TRAVEL.
scott davidson i'm not against the search itself, but rather the intrusive way they conduct it with, which seems more vindictive than it is helpful or practical. at times you wonder what it is they're expecting to find in the tight space between someone's legs that a metal detector can't find. at least in her case they tried their best not to offend her and were making small talk, an average person would be treated much rougher and if they dare protest they'd be kicked off their flight
jeff kennedy it's called cooching! many women put illegal drugs up there to get through security. FACT...I've seen it done!!
Submitting to a field sobriety test because you're the 10th car in the line is not the same thing as having your body searched. Stop falsely equivocating. Searches can be done in ways that are not so invasive and humiliating. This is an absurd standard to set for trying to ensure airplane safety.
I was flying home and LAX tsa told me I had to take off my wig to be “checked”. I’m a brain cancer survivor and removing in front of hundreds of people sent me into a panic attack. I was to remove the wig or miss your flight. I was sobbing and the tsa agent says If you had just done what we asked you would already been done. Next time do as you’re told. Also, going to a private room is even worse. Its your word against theirs.
There is no one way to feel about getting body search. Everybody have different life experiences and that can shape how you respond to this.
Women on their period frequently get flagged due to bulk or perfumes in the tampons or heavy pads. Men get flagged if they are wearing depends. Tell them before you go through the metal detector/body scanner what they should expect to see on their screens. This usually helps to reduce the pat-down issues as a hand wand detector will not buzz for any of these personal use items. However, if you have one of the metal IUD's inserted, the metal detectors may flag you. Carry your doctors prescription for IUD's, metal bone plates, or other prosthetic devices.
I'm heartsick for my fellow Americans and country.This isn't about safety its
About control and humilation.
I can almost understand and tolerate the checks but sometimes the attitude of the officers make the difference. I remember being screamed at when i visited Statue of Liberty, the female officer was so nasty that i swore never to return to this attraction ever again.
On top of that, I used a TSA suitcase at the airport but instead of using a TSA key to open my suitcase, TSA just ripped my suitcase lock off and told me they had the right to do so.
Imagine feeling secure in your own country. Find some real news.
Didn't seem ,like a grope to me. Just because you cry doesn't make it sexual assault. i've had a pat down at an airport, a guy touched my crotch. Big deal. Toughen up you libtards!
The InfamousCanadian
Wow, just wow. I'm not sure what shit you're into but I'm glad I don't fly with you if that's the treatment you get at airports!
Wrong. They ask you if you would like to be examined in private.
Even though I can't stand Angela Rye or TYT..I have to agree with them here. I've been opposed to this whole TSA thing from the start. If they're going to spend all this money hiring many 10s-100s of thousands of TSA employees, maybe we should just put more air marshals on planes. And vastly increase the security and safeguards on the plane itself to make it virtually impossible to get to the cockpit and hijack. I'm sure there are much better ideas that wouldn't invade the privacy and violate so many innocent Americans, like the TSA does on a daily basis.
Ben Franklin was right when he said, "Those who would give up essential liberty to purchase a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety." If this country becomes a full-blown security and surveillance state, then in my view, the terrorists will have succeeded in destroying the country that we love.
Kaden O'Keene whats the use of the more air marshals if someones brings a bomb in there carry on
anthony cruz their carry on isnt in their crotch
Kaden O'Keene too late
Elite liberal journalist had to be like the rest of us... What is so special with this. No tears.
Only in US you have liberal idiots like these 4 morons...
She's not shoving a grenade up her vagina, so to think every women or even you had one up your butt, means everyone needs a cavity search is f'n bullshit. It's not like they're wearing a burka...she was wearing skinny jeans. TSA is a f'n joke and the Founding Fathers would take them out back and put them down.
Haha fondled like the rest of us. Maybe she wants a SAFE SPACE from sexual assault. Boo hoo, I get sexually assaulted all the time who cares
I feel for Angela, but unfortunately this has become a part of American Life. What I don't understand is if she had TSA Pre Check why was she randomly chosen? She should have been on a different line than the other passengers. I have one time or two had the TSA Pre Check on my boarding Pass and I didn't even have to take off my shoes. I just put my stuff on the conveyor belt and went through the metal detector. Done. I am not so sure she was randomly chosen.
4daluvofnikki keyword is randomly
What most seem to miss is that a certain portion of the population finds rules and regulations for the "'common people" okay and necessary ..... until it happens to them. Remember a few years backwhen this South America decided to check Senators & Diplomats at their airport, well it took less than a working week to get that turned over, because that was deemed inappropriate. Whereas the same people advocating for harsh regulations for safety reasons should lead by example
Looked like she had a good feel of that poor girl
Um, why is this a story?
How come no physicists or engineers agree with you?
Tim Bradley ikr the employee just professionally touched her private area. I don't mind being touch my private area if it's necessary and i believe in that ALL the people should feel the same level of discomfort, which is not a big deal.
Billy TheKidd meanwhile the right is losing their shit over the color of Starbucks cups and people not telling them Merry Christmas
ALL OF YOU PEOPLE who undergo pat-downs must get into the habit of asking *"Did you find what you were looking for? "*
Make this a NationWide habit.
Drive home the profound Absurdity of the TSA pat-down.
By the way I just have to say I enjoy watching people have discussions when they don't speak over each other I'm glad you guys allow us to hear what y'all have to say by giving each other time to speak. I refuse to watch any video where people are just yelling over each other. So thank you for being civilized.
I've had a few awful TSA Agents treat me like a criminal. You pay that $80-$100 preboard passage and are cleared you should get your money back.
My wife and I almost bought a preboard check in. I now know its not worth it.
Our government always has a kneejerk reaction.
I've been pulled aside and patted down many times. Since I am a young white man, I don't think that it has anything to do with race, color, gender or religion.
reason 412 why i would never go to America
SCORPIUS DRALL
ya sometimes the USA SUCKS
Please stay away
Scorpius D The authorities here ars severe & may be sadistic.
Its cool, we dont need anymore people. You're free to stay on the other side of the border.
Reasons 1-412 why we don't want you here in the first place.
it doesn't take a con artist to sell you absolute security, but it takes an absolute dummy to buy it.
TSA do not know what they are getting into when I am singled out. Thank goodness for the 1st amendment.
I know how she must have felt because this happen to me at the Philadelphia Airport. It is really embarrasing!
At least put her on a private room to keep her dignity
The problem is in a private room they can become even more unprofessional and it's just your word against theirs. the three times I got singled out for Pat Downs I made them do it right there in front of all the other travelers so there would be independent witnesses
Of course you need to check the hair you can hide blades in there. You can hide blades in your crotch too. But hey I'm sure the alternative (lets let people bring weapons on the plane so we don't make irrational people feel uncomfortable) is better. Don't blame TSA for the RNG.
To me the attitude of the TSA can make a big difference. They can say "sorry I have to do this" and treat you kindly and still do what they need to do. It is called RESPECT. A doctor has to do some embarrassing things to us but they act professionally and with respect.
