Dr. Ileana Johnson Paugh Thursday, August 11, 2011 Last week, at Reagan National Airport I was chosen in line to be screened by the naked scanner. I knew that this technology had been rushed to market and had not been properly tested for the amount of radiation exposure and its concentration in skin, which increases the risk of cancer.
AIT (Advanced Imaging Technology) uses backscatter x-rays, which emit ionizing radiation. The cumulative effect is absorbed almost entirely by skin and underlying tissues. The dose is believed to be 20 times higher than estimated by the manufacturer. Repeated scanning may cause significant health risks particularly in people who are more susceptible/sensitive to radiation and are prone to DNA mutation.
A couple of burka-clad passengers were waved through from the line behind me; nobody touched them or x-rayed them. Here I was, waiting to be sexually touched and violated in front of dozens of people. I did not want to go to a private room, I was afraid for my safety.
I did not wear loose clothing, just Capri pants and a fitted shirt. There was obviously nothing that I was hiding beneath my clothes. As I clearly recall, most of the recent terrorist acts and failed attempts involving aviation were committed by Muslims or converts to Islam, not middle-aged women in modern clothes. My religion celebrates life in all forms and does not wish death on humanity.
The TSA agent repeatedly touched my crotch, my buttocks, my breast, and pretty much every inch of my body for 15 minutes. Why must they touch my body in every way? Why are children and toddlers in diapers groped inappropriately? How is that making everybody else safer to fly?
We teach our children not to talk to strangers, much less allow strangers to touch them in such invasive, pedophilic ways. By the time my TSA tormentor finished, I was in tears, I never felt more utterly violated except under communism. I felt stripped of my dignity, my being, my soul. This is what slaves must have felt like when they were sold, felt and prodded like cattle.

The American traveler is being punished for the failure of the FBI and CIA to share information and stop the 9/11 attacks. It is both stunning and sickening that so many people are willing to allow a government agency to sexually assault their children a just so they can fly somewhere. Under Pistole’s policies, TSA screeners have been turned into de facto child molesters and sexual assailants. They have admitted that the pat downs involve direct contact with passenger’s penises, testicles, breasts and vaginas which constitutes sexual assault. By their own calculations, TSA gropes over 60,000 passengers every month! This week Denver TSA Area Pat Ahlstrom said of the scans “They were graphic, no doubt about it. Now, they don’t have to be concerned that a private image will be viewed by a TSA officer”.
The agency has repeatedly lied about their procedures and the level of the personal invasion and arrogantly dismissed victim complaints as either exaggerations or necessary to assure aircraft security. TSA has now become a criminal agency headed by unethical and arrogant bureaucrats only interested in furthering their own fortunes. According to Pistole we should be thankful that they will feel up fewer children than they do now. This of course implies that child molesters who only assault a few victims are somehow more acceptable than those whose attacks are more frequent.
If TSA actually provided security instead of theater people might be inclined to support them. As is stands TSA is the most hated agency in government and the majority of travelers want them to be reformed or abolished due to the agency’s incompetence. Even Rep. John Mica who headed the TSA formation has described TSA as “completely out of control” and called for their closure.
Since December 2010 there have been 42 screeners arrested for crimes ranging from rape and child pornography to drug trafficking and theft from bags. In the same period, there have been 40 security breaches or failures, dozens of lawsuits and thousands of groping and abuse complaints. Most recently the pat down of a six year old girl and removal of a dying woman’s diaper made headlines. There is clearly a problem when an agency this size has this level of job-related criminal activity and passenger abuse.
TSA has needlessly molested and traumatized thousands of children since November and many of these abuses have been caught on video making national news. This agency is violating passenger rights on a daily basis, committing crimes and endangering airline security with their incompetence. Nothing less than the complete elimination of this agency is acceptable. If there is any justice left in this country those responsible for this criminal malfeasance, particularly Pistole, will be prosecuted by the next Administration.
