But is there no law that outlaws groping. I understand that the passenger has to provide consent, but he/she is not exactly in a positive or healthy frame of mind about it. Like the other day I read about a rape victim going through emotional trauma when subjected to the pat-down. Aren't a collection of such incidents, along with medical reports and/or proofs enough to at least warrant challenging the existing law?
- pedrocr 16y agoThe fourth amendment: The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized. What unreasonable means is up for debate but the line is somewhere. And my understanding is that you can't even "consent" away the bill of rights as much as that is argued by the TSA. My opinion is that groping someone's genitals is clearly unreasonable and that the gradualism of the TSA rules has made this pass by unchecked. You might disagree with that though.
