Rand Paul Continues War On TSA, Groping Of ‘Toddlers And Grandmothers’
Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) continued to rage against the Transportation Security Administration on Tuesday, encouraging supporters to join a campaign to get it to stop “groping toddlers and grandmothers.”
“The American people shouldn’t be subjected to harassment, groping, and other public humiliation simply to board an airplane,” Paul writes in a press release. “It’s time to END the TSA and get the government’s hands back to only stealing our wallets instead of groping toddlers and grandmothers.”
The Kentucky Republican goes on to encourage recipients to add their names to an anti-TSA Campaign for Liberty petition.
In a subsequent release, Matt Hawes of the libertarian-leaning Campaign for Liberty says the push is necessary because “the government literally has its hands in our pants.”

Did Rand Paul just argue for a TSA citizen database?

Watch this clip:
When speaking about potential alternative solutions to TSA “strip searching” and 4th amendment violations for the very young and old Rand Paul suggests a frequent flyer government database as a means of helping along the screening process.
No way Rand Paul!
Subjecting Americans to another government run database (voluntary or not) is simply unacceptable. Only the private sector can create a frequent flyer database and that database should not be shared with the government in any way shape or form — unless specific data on specific persons is requested via a court issued warrant.
We don’t need the reaction to the problem of TSA privacy violations to be solved with more TSA privacy violations. What we need is for you (Rand Paul) to be arguing that the TSA should not be conducting these searches as is directed per the constitution you gave an oath to uphold.
Rand Paul, remember your oath and represent the constitution in all cases without exception.
