Geraldo Details Graphic TSA Experience: ‘I Got Manually Raped by a Guy Who…Was Getting Off on it’

Fox News

On the heels of an 18-month-old girl getting kicked off a plane for appearing on the Transportation Security Administration’s no-fly list, Fox News host Geraldo Rivera shared his own TSA experience where he claimed he “got manually raped by a guy” who was “getting off on it.”

“I was on the no-fly list,” Rivera told the “Fox and Friends” hosts Friday. “For a long time when they first computerized the no-fly list, I would get my boarding pass and it would have three ‘S’s.”

He said every time he flew he would be “shuffled off” for additional screening and questioning until he started complaining about it on television.

“After enough kicking and screaming and embarrassing, embarrassment to the TSA of their utter incompetence in terms of managing this program – they talked about glitches in the computer program – at some point, they finally got it together,” he said of getting his name removed from the list.

But Rivera’s TSA woes weren’t over: “I tell you the last time I flew to Afghanistan I got manually raped by a guy who – the scanner wasn’t working.”

“He wanted to make sure…” host Steve Doocy offered.

“But making sure is one thing,” Rivera said. “This guy, it seemed to me, was getting off on it, I — ”

“Oh my gosh,” host Gretchen Carlson laughed.

“ — and the more and the tighter I got and the angrier I got,” said Rivera. “He just wanted to be a little more intimate.”

Sorry, but I just have so many questions!!! Geraldo, if the rape was “automatic” rather than manual, would that be acceptable to you? :-)

  Frisking Geraldo ensures I will be safe from a suicide bomber in my local mall and grocery store.
  
  Makes sense, right?
  
  Oh, I am so scared of the Muslim boogieman. Frisk everybody !!!!!

  What’s funny is that if this was under Bush, none of you would have a problem with it, or at least you wouldn’t say anything.
  
  Remember all of Bush’s warrantless wiretaps that all conservatives had no problem with?
  
  This is not defending things the TSA does, it is just pointing out that you are all a bunch of hypocrites.

  You claim that I am a hypocrite and have no evidence to substantiate that.
  
  I have evidence that you falsely assume and generalize.
  
  I am a libertarian and loathed the Bushes nearly as much as their family relative Obama

  You need to understand that you have been brainwashed. This 3 minute video will help erase what the global banksters have instilled into your mindset. This also shows that the left-wingers should embrace the Constitution.

  Remember that the conservatives are not the enemy of the liberals or vice-versa.
  
  Although, communists are the enemy of the capitalists.
  
  The Banksters have indoctrinated the left to help them to carry out their global agenda.
  These are the people that the liberals should focus their anger at:

  So if its a 90 pound women like Michelle Malkin Geraldo says he will spit in her face but when it come to a male TSM agent he loses his will to become violent.
  After the Malkin incident Orielly kicked her off the show and kept Geraldo. Go Figure.
  Nice to see Gerry Rivers getting some of the treatment he champions for the common man.

  I use to have a Top Secret Clearance not that long ago so the only thing that could give me SSS would be my NRA membership and gun ownership. Hmmm. Sometimes the TSA really squeeze your balls hard and it hurts.

  TSA has been making money by offering jobs to Pedophiles, Sex Offenders, and ex-Cons. The TSA workers actually pay TSA to work. Its a good thing Homeland Security has arrested those Amish Dairy Farmers who were selling fresh milk.

  At the very least, bring in the Israelis to train them. They know a bit about preventing terrorism on their flights.
  A GREAT idea I’ve heard proposed is to give TSA hiring preference to returning Iraq/Afghan veteran soldiers. They’re already specially trained, tested, and experienced at spotting the suspicious behavior that precedes an attack (they had to for survival!).
  This would hopefully lend the TSA at least some credibility and respect, AND would go a long way toward reducing the number of unemployed veterans. Why would we spend millions on their training and skilllsets, put them in harms way, then bring them home and say “Good luck!”? They are a valuable resource that deserves utilization, and I think that would be a perfect way to do it!

  The agent must have been white or something other than “Latino”. If the agent’s name were Juan or Felipe we’d have heard nothing about this.

What would the TSA do if, while getting felt up, you started acting like it was turning you on, and you started to giggle and moan. It’s almost tempting to turn the tables on these Robo-cops.

  Why there hasn’t been more TSA agents with smashed faces is beyond me.
  
  Why the sheep continue to pay outreageous fees to fly is beyond me.
  
  Why a private firm has not come in with a better, more cost effective plan is beyond me.
  
  Michael “Skeletor” Chertoff from the Bush admin & many in the current admin have shares in the body scanner & security business.
  
  Boycott flying, hit the airlines with protests for six months, refuse to fly, cause them to lose revenue and you’ll see the TSA get disbanded.

  If they ask you if you have a driver’s license you’ll just end up pushing a wheelbarrow. Don’t go snipe hunting and refuse to look for a bucket of steam, prop wash or left handed monkey wrench. And DEFINATELY don’t drink or eat anything there because of the salt peter….

  Yeah, I heard about that and it’s scary. There’s always that skeptism though from Prison Planet material. I mean, I’ll listen, but… I just like seeing other people talking about it before I give it much weight. Besides no one here will look at it anyway. They’ll believe teenage girls can exorcise demons from people on reality tv though.
