Excerpt from her blog:

Quote:
It shouldn't be emotionally easy, earning a living by violating people's rights.

On March 31st, when I came through the metal detector and realized that everyone in the TSA line to my United flight was getting searched, I got teary. I was teary at the prospect of being touched by a government worker -- entirely without probable cause. I was very upset, both because of the physical violation and because I love our now too-often-crumpled-up Constitution and Bill of Rights.

I can hold back the tears...hang tough...but as I was made to "assume the position" on a rubber mat like a common criminal, I thought fast. I decided that these TSA lackeys who serve the government in violating our rights just don't deserve my quiet compliance. And no, I won't go through the scanner (do you trust the government that they're safe?) and allow a government employee to see me naked in the course of normal and totally ordinary business travel: flying from Los Angeles to Binghamton, New York, to attend an evolutionary psychology conference for my work.

Basically, I felt it important to make a spectacle of what they are doing to us, to make it uncomfortable for them to violate us and our rights, so I let the tears come. In fact, I sobbed my guts out. Loudly. Very loudly. The entire time the woman was searching me.

Nearing the end of this violation, I sobbed even louder as the woman, FOUR TIMES, stuck the side of her gloved hand INTO my vagina, through my pants. Between my labia. She really got up there. Four times. Back right and left, and front right and left. In my vagina. Between my labia. I was shocked -- utterly unprepared for how she got the side of her hand up there. It was government-sanctioned sexual assault.

Upon leaving, still sobbing, I yelled to the woman, "YOU RAPED ME." And I took her name to see if I could file sexual assault charges on my return. This woman, and all of those who support this system deserve no less than this sort of unpleasant experience, and from all of us.


She later was sued by this "person" (to be kind with my words), for "defamation", demanding US$500,000 in damages. Link: http://feralgenius.blogspot.com/2011/09 ... -sues.html

Thedala Magee..... what a pathetic person. :roll: Apparently, the rapist is the victim, in her little (more like large) state-sanctioned world. Ugh. People like her make me want to throw up.

Does anyone have any more TSA rape stories to share? Threads on Wrong Planet get a lot of hits, via Google and such, so having a thread about the countless, worse cases of abuse, than the regular ones of the TSA, could be a good idea, in order to spread the word for its eventual abolishment. What the U.S. government is attempting to do, with these countless, and increasing, violations, is to make every American submit to this, and more to come, to make them ready for the fascism that so clearly is taking over the country. And if you'd think it only was for airplanes, think again. Introductions of nude scans are getting ready for shopping centres and high schools, and already are for some sports events, and it, along with the "enhanced"/"extended" pat-downs, soon will be for ferries, trains and other forms of mass transit, as well, as per the word of Janet Napolitano, chief of the Department of Homeland Security: http://news.antiwar.com/2010/11/25/napo ... s-transit/


When is enough enough? When they start with cavity searches as a regular activity, or sometime after that? Or is the time to react perhaps now?

Wow, that's horrible. And clearly, all they care about is that the guy stops filming. God, it makes me shake watching it. :( And both Obama and Mitt Romney support this sexual abuse.

Links to leaked nude scanner photos are welcome, too... as long as they are censored in "sensitive areas", anyway.

So... I'll try to rewrite the events of what happened from a more neutral point of view. The blog writer refused to go through that scanner I've been hearing let's see people naked, and make a big spectacle out of it, so she was manually searched instead, and during that process the one doing the searching touched her genitals, and spent more time there than she should. Then, after the blogger wrote about it, the searcher sued.

Yup, it's outrageous, but I don't see the blogger being completely innocent either. I've been through international airport checkpoints, two of them in U.S. airports, and... I've not had any problem at all, being a Colombian and everything. The key was... just doing what they say, raise my arms, take off my coat, let them touch me a bit, none of it near my genitals, and sure as hell it's annoyimg but I don't get all teary eyed and make a ruckus, that would only make them take even more interest (wow he refuses to be searched, he must have something!) and besides, I might be bringing in a bomb or drugs or weapons so I understand why all the security. If they just let go someone who refused to be scanned it would be just dumb.

My conclusion, it was very very wrong for the TSA worker to search her down there apparently out of spite but... the blogger gave me the impression of being way too whiny for everything that happened before she was actually searched.

Wow, good for you. :evil:

And too whiny, huh? I'm not even sure what to respond with, to that, as your comment is so outrageous. And she isn't innocent? You mean, she isn't innocent, like those who get raped after dressing "too provocatively"? Is that what you mean?

Not me. She just gave me that impression, from my point of view where nobody I've ever known has gotten all teary eyed at the thought of going through a security checkpoint.

I repeat, it was very very wrong for the worker to touch her there. But if she had just gone through the scanner, nothing of that would have happened.

This may also be just me. I don't like people who complain about everything instead of understanding that some things can't be helped and got to be endured. I hate security checkpoints, but I understand that it's either that or not traveling so I just shut up and go through the motions and stay out of trouble. I have experience from seeing people dealing with the police around here, not that they are that bad but if you give them a reason to hate you, they can screw you up. Better not give them that reason,

[Nude scan image removed due to privacy concerns. It was a mistake of mine to post it, uncensored.]


Here is a link to a case written by another victim of these violations:

8O

Now I feel a bit like a douche. How did those scanners get allowed anyway, weren't good old metal detectors enough? That looks like an invasion of privacy that should only be used on high risk travelers, instead of everyone. I'd already seen low res non-inverted pictures, which didn't look like a big deal, but th is different.

I maintain that it's better to keep a low profile to avoid getting into trouble, and if I ever go into an US airport I'll probably still go through the scanner anyway, but what the blogger did doesn't seem like an overreaction to me anyway.

One image is bette than a thousand words indeed.

Damn I hate being in the wrong side of the argument :x

NO "buts"!

There was no excuse or justification for a TSA agent to insert her fingers into this woman's orifices. Nor is their any reason for TSA agents to do it ever. This agency goes to show just how out of control US government bureaucracy has gotten to be. There have been whistle blowers reporting that REGISTERED SEX OFFENDERS have been hired by the TSA to work as airport screeners at security checkpoints!

I realize that you come from a part of the world where peoples privacy isn't respected and rape is a crime that your society doesn't take seriously but thankfully, things are different here in the US.

I just stopped myself from saying something rude. That comment was quite remeaning. And rude.

Where did you get that idea about my country? There are many things wrong around here, but lack of privacy is not one of them. And rape not being taken seriously is DEFINITELY not one of them.

All I meant with that comment was to say, you should not piss off someone who has power over you. Like you should not go around the bad part of the city at night, sure, the muggers have no excuse or justification for mugging but hey, you could have avoided it.

I think in state it's just much less trouble to take a bus or train. They cost/less the same as a plane, but without the drama. I don't know, I'm I guess a relatively patient person, though.

For international, it gets trickier. Boat trips via freighters cost usually more than a plane, and take longer. Heh.

What I meant is that the fact that there are no restriction on the power wielded by TSA agents is completely unacceptable. Sweeping changes need to be made; and they need to made now. Your statement sounded like something the TSA would say to cover their ass and excuse this kind of behavior.

There's only one thing that can be done...form a foundation to fund large groups of really flamboyant gay guys who didn't shower and took a mega-dose of viagra to regularly fly them all over the country to pass them through airport security.

If something similar was done with some really butch lesbians, statistics on how many TSA agents consider it their dream job might be obtainable! :lol:

Those flamboyant gays and vagina poking butch dykes you're talking about are EXACTLY the kind of people who the TSA hires. Go figure.

I dunno, I get the strong impression that the author of the article is a bit of a diva who created a problem out of thin air by acting suspicious on purpose. If she didn't come across like that, I would have more sympathy. But by the time I she used the privilege-revealing phrase "like a common criminal" I was kind of hoping that something bad would happen to her.
