It always comes back to the personal attack with you people.

For your information, I was in law enforcement for 15 years and what you call "perversion" I can appropriate and legal. I conducted many pat-down searches in my day, on both males and females. Properly conducted, a pat-down search doesn't come close to the type of "perverted" behavior that you claim it is.

And as for my wife, she's conducted pat-down searches of others as well and has, herself, had pat-down searches on her. If she had such radical objections to the searches I haven't heard about it. Beyond that I'll let her speak for herself. You can contact her via my web site (tsa-screeners.com) if you like.

It's always personal attacks with 'you people?' What was that one about stones and glass houses?

Blindly and irrationally defending something that is clearly wrong will never make it right.
