56. Maybe he DOES have perspective
He's a frequent traveler and I'm sure has been through many pat-downs and security checks of varying degrees. This one was clearly different for him. IMO it's wrong to simply dismiss his complaint based on your conjecture. How do you know this wasn't different? You have nothing to go on save for your bias.

I appreciate you standing up for people who've been sexually assaulted. You are, however, dismissing someone here who may well have been assaulted. I can very easily imagine a pat-down conducted by a pervert hired by the TSA that goes way over the line and would, indeed, be sexual assault. What, that couldn't happen?

Bull.
