Doctors Question TSA's Use of Pat-Downs

Horrible, absolutely horrible.

Thomas Sawyer, a cancer survivor, has worn a urostomy bag for the past three years. Yet, he says, little could have prepared him for his recent airport pat down, when an officer broke the bag's seal and urine spilled out "onto my shirt and down my pants."

That really had to be an awful experience. You'd think that common sense on the part of the TSA personnel would come into play at some point, but that doesn't appear to be the case.

Common Sense and the TSA are contradictions in terms.

Per media accounts, they didn't even have the grace to apologize - the poor man was in tears. Sickening.
