Everyone probably has their own story about the transport security administration that has mortified them to no ends. The TSA has been quite notorious for their enhanced pat downs and full body screenings which many regard as a form of harassment. These tsa horror stories will show what exactly goes on in the airport security checkpoints and how people are affected.
From those who come from different cultures or religious backgrounds, it is definitely possible to experience some sort of discrimination with these procedures. One man, Gurdeep Singh Bawa had to remove his turban when he went under the scanner even if he passed the metal scanning. In his culture, it is rude to allow others to touch the turban, as per his religion.
There is also a story about this woman who was on a flight from Texas who was stopped by the agents. The agents sexually harassed her by forcing her to take off her blouse, exposing her breasts to them so that they can thoroughly check her. This made her file a complaint which was not reciprocated in anyway. So she just filed a lawsuit against the agency and kept her name anonymous from the reporters or news channels.
One Redditor who had sleep apnea complained that a security agent even tampered with her sleep apnea machine because they thought it was some kind of strange device. Eventually, they disassembled it, prompting the Redditor to get the name of the supervisor in charge to file a case in the event she died because they broke the sleep apnea machine. Needless to say, they had the machine replaced afterwards.
Cathy Bassi, who is a proud breast cancer survivor and a carrier of a prosthetic breast, was stopped by agents because they suspected the breast to be something dangerous. The agents first groped her beast and asked her if she felt anything. After that, they asked her to show the prosthetic breast.
Children were also heavily victimized by the agents as a six year old boy was sexually harassed. His father wrote an anonymous blog stating that his son was not given a choice but to go through the enhanced pat down. During the pat down, the agents grabbed his testicles, which obviously made him feel uncomfortable.
John Tyner was a little bit different as he did not want to cooperate. He was interviewed by fox news wherein he stated that he refused screening and pat downs. Because of this, the agents told him he was not allowed to travel and was brought out of the airport.
These nightmare stories are definitely enough to discourage people from traveling to the places that have these sort of strange standard operating security measures. While there are a few agents who do not have any malicious intent, surely there are those who actually like to abuse their power because of the position they are in. These tales definitely show how bad it can get sometimes.
