Singer Nicki Minaj Accuses TSA Agent of ‘Overtly Fondling’ Her at Airport Checkpoint

Pop singer Nicki Minaj isn’t too happy with the Transportation Security Administration (TSA). On Monday morning, she took to Twitter to voice her angst, while accusing a female agent of “overtly fondling” her at an airport security checkpoint.
“Pretty sure I was just overtly fondled @ this check point. By a very old lady w/an accent. Word?,” she wrote around 8:00 a.m. ET.
Minaj followed this tweet up by taking a picture of the woman’s back and sharing it on Twitter, exposing the agent to her more than 13.4 million followers. Here’s the image she tweeted, below:
But the dramatic tweets didn’t end there. Apparently, TSA didn‘t take too kindly to Minaj’s picture-taking antics, because she sent yet another social media message deriding the government institution.
“So TSA always takes pics of me while doing their job!,” she wrote. “But wld u believe they just told ME EYE couldn’t take pics???? Wow.”
Twitchy notes that Minaj may have a viable point. TSA policy, as the outlet notes, ”does not prohibit the public, passengers or press from photographing, videotaping or filming at security checkpoints, as long as the screening process is not interfered with or slowed down.”
Either way, it seems she‘s joining the chorus of Americans who take issue with the TSA’s methodologies.

Report Post »“You can smoke dope without Ron Paul being president.”
ALINSKY SMEAR OBJECTIVE:
FAKE-conservatives HATE Constitutional liberty and ESPECIALLY the 10th Amendment. So they position defenders OF IT, as selfish, hedonistic dope-smoker, under-aged prostitute-boinkers, etc. This tactic is designed to render Constitutional liberty… an ABHORRENT THING and detrimental to polite society. Democrats (fake-liberals) use the same technique with religion. They, SAME AS THE FAKE-conservative, will claim that the 10th Amendment, IF PRESERVED, would have blood smeared theocrats beheading their neighbors for saten worship.

Romney Security Policy Advisor Michael Chertoff Has Called For More TSA Body Scanners, Lobbies For Scanner Machine Manufacturers. For years, Chertoff has called for stricter TSA policies, including pat-downs and increased use of scanner. However, reports revealed recently that Chertoff, since leaving the Bush administration, has worked for several body scanner companies.
Again, Romney is on the wrong side of freedom. Who would have thought? Well there is that one guy.

Posted on July 9, 2012 at 12:03pmYou knew it was coming from this attention whore. She hasn’t been in the headlines in nearly a month so this was a natural.
So easy to make the accusation when you don’t have to back it up. Mark my words…..when this dies down in a few days she’ll make a statement about it being because she was black and that the TSA agent made a racial slur under their breath. I guess it’s what you have to do to try to stay relevant when you lack talent or substance and want to be famous.
Our culture is no longer swirling round the drain, it’s been flushed thanks to the mindless masses who make reality shows profitable and no talent trash like Minaj, Kardashian and Snooki celebrities.
Idiots. People who can tell you how many weeks pregnant Snooki is or who Kardashian is dating this month but can’t name the Speaker of the House or Senate Majority Leader should be stripped of the right to vote.

You are absolutely right! And disbanding the TSA is only one miniscule step to what has to happen. The entire Dept. of Homeland Security was a bad idea in 2001-2 and it’s done nothing but become more intrusive. Get rid of it. They’ve done nothing to make us more secure. Then we can get rid of ATC, ICE, the Border Patrol (if in fact we aren’t going to aggressively enforce our borders), and the DEA plus tons of others. I’m lazy today so I ran a quick search on federal law enforcement agencies. Here’s the link http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Federal_law_enforcement_in_the_United_States.
We may have more armed agents than than civilian employees in the federal government anymore. That’s not really true but I was stunned by the list.
Except for the defense departments, the FBI, the NSA and the CIA I’d say we would be just as safe, and much better off, if we just got rid of all the rest of them. Even the Bureau of Land Management has Rangers and Special Agents!
They have been getting ready for something for a long time. The TSA is just one very small piece of the infrastructure. Peace.

Posted on July 9, 2012 at 11:38amWho doesn’t want to be fondled a little before getting on an airplane. What I would be fine with is if the ones doing the fondling and groping would be the flight crew. At least with them doing it, it would feel more like a date. The flight attendent feels you up, asks you where your going, takes your ticket, and then, later on brings you a drink and at the end of the flight, they thank you for flying with them.
As it is, here is some guy who grabs your junk, and you know you will never see them again. See that is just wrong, where is the relationship, the connection, he should at least give you a bag of peanuts after the groping.
