The TSA Receives Nearly 1,000 Complaints Since November 1, 2010

We aren't even through with the month yet, and the number of complains rolling in about the TSA has skyrocketed since new security measures have gone into place. The ACLU reports nearly 1,000 travelers have contacted them this month because of they way they were handled by TSA agents in the airports.

Complaints all sound similar to one woman who wishes to remain anonymous. “The TSA agent used her hands to feel under and between my breasts,” said one woman. “She then rammed her hand up into my crotch until it jammed into my pubic bone.”

An ACLU representative remarked:

"The government must keep us safe, but it must do so in a way that is sensible, effective and constitutional," Laura W. Murphy, Director of the ACLU Washington Legislative Office, said. "The new 'enhanced' security methods are far more intrusive than other methods but have not been shown to be any more effective. Nobody should be forced to choose between 'naked scans' and intrusive groping by strangers to keep our airplanes safe."
