Default Woman in Underwear at Will Rogers AP

Yep, TSA is searching women in wheelchairs. This lady got tired of their crap and showed up at the OK City airport in her underwear.

Quote:
Tuesday night Banovac said she chose to wear her underwear because of an unpleasant experience two weeks ago at airport security. She is typically hand-searched at airports because she uses a wheelchair, she said, and she felt violated by the more invasive searches employed at airports recently.

Such complete BS. They wanted to pmake a point so they held her up at security, plain and simple. I remember last year my rucksack set off the chem alarms. I told the screener I frankly had no faith in their equipment. He pulled all my crap out, sent it back through xray and along I went with my body and suitcase not rescreened and/or checked for the chem test. So tell me how good this system is?

I brought a laptop through recently and they were giving me problems with some sort of chemical test from swabs as they ran them over the keyboard. Something about explosive residue or something like that. Not sure what they were picking up but at times I handle different powders for bullet loads, black powder and the like. I think it was all BS and feel they don't have a clue what is going on. Mrs. CI flew to DC earlier this year on a one way ticket and no checked baggage and she got red flagged and had to go through about a 30 minute screening. All crap...and I hope that butch that patted her down got a rush.

I travel a lot and seems I'm always the guy that gets his carry on bag searched.. But I guess I may look suspicious, I'm 61 traveling with a lap top and business suit. I guess I should sue them for profiling.

Bingo, that's your problem, easy target. I travel like I barely have 2 nickels to rub together. I'm upgraded all the time to first class. Other than the books I read, big give away if you see the title. I'm the one you walk by and ask, why the heck is he sitting there. I don't talk business on airlines or at restaurants. Too many eyes and ears around. However, I'm not above eaves dropping on my competition if they choose to do so.
