A woman made an article complaining about a surprise security check and having the employee's hand 'touch' her vagina.

 

Are you kidding me? This is the DUMBEST complaint I've ever seen(disregard my trollish complaint threads). 

 

1) she acts as though no one else has their genitals touched. It's not as if she went donald trump on her and grabbed her by the pussy. She simply touched it with her hand. I've had officers firmly patdown near my genitals. It was a bit uncomfortable, but they were kind enough to be more gentle if I said it hurt. 

 

2) oh no, a surprise security check? She's lucky enough she isn't a Sikh, muslim, arab, or jew. You know how often they get 'security' checks just because of their appearance?

 

3) Arguing over a simple patdown? She's lucky she isn't held back for an hour and given a stupid interview.

I was once pulled into a room in Tel Aviv and given a paper interview. One of the questions was "are you a nazi?". Was it ridiculous? Yes, yes it was. Did I complain and start a fight? No. Even though I have been pulled over for 1-2.5 hours and have received stupid interviews, I chose to not make it worse and shut up about it. Arguing never helps, especially at the airport.

 

Here's the thing. Either she's exaggerating, or I'm unlucky and have dealt with a bunch of jerks during my flight experiences. Not entirely sure anymore. 

 

Overall however, is it seriously the end of the world if the back hand of someone touches your private area? It's not like they're enjoying it. It's the same case for doctors too. They're not shrieking in joy to touch your lower region. Chances are they want to get it over with as soon as possible.

Wonder if she is going to sue for rape. To complete the picture. Anyway those people do their job if you don't like it file a complaint or don't fly anymore. Those security checks are necessary since plains are an intresting target for terrorists.



Please excuse my (probally) poor grammar

...is it impossible for a woman to stuff contraband down her pants? 'Cause I know from experience that a man can.



I do security in a nuclear power plant for a living. Usually it's just me and my rifle inside of a bullet resistant enclosure, posting on VGChartz and watching YouTube. Every so often, I'm searching personnel or vehicles and it's about the same as boarding a flight. We've got all kinds of detection equipment and if we're suspicious, WE CAN AND WILL SEARCH YOUR GENITALS. You can refuse but you'll be banned from entering any nuclear facility in the country.

I guess both of us like doing more important things at our jobs... XD



Made a bet with LipeJJ and HylianYoshi that the XB1 will reach 30 million before Wii U reaches 15 million. Loser has to get avatar picked by winner for 6 months (or if I lose, either 6 months avatar control for both Lipe and Hylian, or my patrick avatar comes back forever).

Lol! Sometimes, I'm ashamed to cash my paycheck! 

... That shame doesn't last long, though.

It's funny, because apparently she flies every week. You'd think she'd realize that they pat down people all the time. She isn't an exception.
