- ItendToDisagree 9y agoPerhaps they are confusing TSA with CBP?
- flopto 9y agoI couldn't find the story I was looking for but here are a few. Both TSA and CBP represented here; the CBP stories are closer to what the grandparent post describes. These stories describe sexual assault graphically (to various degrees). https://www.techdirt.com/articles/20110906/11065015824/tsa-agent-threatens-woman-with-defamation-demands-500k-calling-intrusive-search-rape.shtml https://www.techdirt.com/articles/20110906/11065015824/tsa-a... https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2016/06/woman-sues-border-agency-after-invasive-cavity-search-for-non-existent-drugs/ https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2016/06/woman-sues-borde... http://www.azcentral.com/story/news/politics/immigration/2016/06/15/us-woman-sues-cbp-hospital-over-body-cavity-search/85892920/ http://www.azcentral.com/story/news/politics/immigration/201... https://www.texastribune.org/2016/07/21/cbp-awards-us-citizen-nearly-half-million-illegal-/ https://www.texastribune.org/2016/07/21/cbp-awards-us-citize... http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/cnns-angela-rye-was-subjected-to-humiliating-tsa-vaginal-pat-down_us_5857ecbee4b0b3ddfd8d7e63 http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/cnns-angela-rye-was-subj...
- kyrre 9y agoReading these reports do you find the story 1) more likely or 2) less likely to have occurred? Remember, he (or rather his GF) claimed the Houston TSA were routinely performing prison type cavity searches, i.e., strip, squat (and cough).
