Angry TSA in my pants, literally

So, I'm a frequent (weekly) flier. There is almost nothing I've had to endure these last several years that had made me mad, embarassed, feel violated. Until tonight. I'm still in CVG and 30 minutes ago, the screener asked me during the "enhanced" patdown to lift my top (I'm female) so she could inspect my waistband. Okay, this usually gets done by hand, but I complied. Then, without warning, she yanked my pants forward and peered down the front of my pants. Truly.

I seriously considered going to the supervisor booth to complain about this but I think it needs to be done in writing and possibly also to my local news folks. I'd love to add my voices to those incensed by all this needless personal invasion we are subjected to when traveling. Heaven forbid we don't want to go through the nude-o-scope.

Any advice for getting this incident out there?
