Texas House Passes Bill That Bans Offensive Security Pat-Downs
AUSTIN (AP) - The Texas House passed a bill that would make it a criminal offense for public servants to inappropriately touch travelers during airport security pat-downs.

It also prohibits searches “that would be offensive to a reasonable person.” (dfw.cbslocal.com) Daha Fazlası...One of the reasons why I'm glad I'm living in Texas.

NH is close to passing the same bill!
A good start but the story does note that it may be superceded by Federal Law
I think Federal Law will prevail but I agree it's about time that someone challenge this nonsense. Appropriate measures in appropriate circumstances with some common sense applied is not a problem to anyone. I hope this sticks and expands. It's about time!
