“What on Earth does the TSA have to do to bump up against some serious resistance? If you feel like you’ve been sexually molested, you can go and cry on YouTube, like Miss USA did, but that’s about as much sympathy as you’re gonna get. You were molested for everyone’s protection. And let’s not forget the recent firing of 400 TSA agents for massive theft. If Americans are OK with a genital grab here and there, why not expand it to other places besides the airport? The longer that this goes on, the more emboldened the state will get, and that’s exactly what they’ll (slowly, of course) start to do.”
