People complain all the time about the TSA, but I have not seen any type of replacement suggested by anyone. What should we do to replace the TSA?

I am not taking the TSA side in the least bit, but I am going to point something out people dont seem to understand about the TSA.
The Officers who conduct the security screenings are NOT comissioned Law Enforcement. As such, they are not prevented from conducting a search of a person as Law Enforcement would be. Private security has more authority to to make contact with an individual in their security area, to ask questions, and to search items, where Law Enforcement is restricted by State and FEderal Law.
With that being said, I will ask this question again.

It's about time people began being outraged over the TSA's sexual assualt and invasion of privacy in violation of the constitution. The more exposure this gets, the more people will begin to oppose this harrasmant, so S+F for you.
