I opted out at LAX on 7/21 and got a retaliatory, supposedly pre-enhanced, grope and a buttload of attitude from TSA. Posted about it on FT. Lodged a complaint, no response.

I flew out of LAX T6 on 10/30. Self-selected the WTMD line without a NoS. I watched the security area from the other side for 20 to 30 minutes. I couldn't tell from that vantage point if there were any opt outs. Everyone who went through the NoS closest to me got a cursory pat down afterwards. I saw 8 people get the grope: 5 men, 3 women. All except 1 of the women (mid-20s) were mid-50s or better. 1 was a frail elderly Asian in a wheel chair. If TSA is correct, these were all, allegedly, "random" selectees.

As they were facing away from me, I couldn't tell if they got the front of the hand breast/genital grope or not and I was too far away to hear what was being said. Every TSO (4 different ones) appeared to explain what they were going to do at each step. Genders were appropriate. I didn't see any b*** crack poking. Nevertheless, by the expressions on the gropees' faces it was not well received and a total shock.
