250: Transportation Sexual Assault (TSA)
James Loomis, Lubbock Airport, TSA Groping Protest
James Loomis, the Director of Aviation for Lubbock, Texas, addressed a city council meeting to protest the TSA's "enhanced screening" techniques. Loomis argued that TSA agents are not law enforcement officers and that their invasive searches violate the Fourth Amendment. He highlighted the lack of probable cause for searching citizens simply because they purchased an airline ticket and criticized the "double-speak" of calling body searches "pat-downs."
