Video Camera And Phone Used To Record The Incident Also
Confiscated
Well, the theater of the absurd that TSA screening is rapidly
approaching was taken a step further when a passenger in San Diego
stripped to his underwear prior to and "enhanced" pat-down search
on Friday at the San Diego airport.
This time, it was Samuel Wolanyk who was arrested, handcuffed,
and escorted to the Harbor Police Office in no more than his
underwear. MSNBC reports that, according to its San Diego
affiliate, Wolanyk opted out of the full-body scan, and when told
he would need the pat down, started taking off his clothes. He
eventually wound up standing in the middle of the TSA screening
area in just his underwear. He said Sunday in a statement that he
is a frequent flyer, and he is "not willing to have images of my
naked body viewed by perfect strangers, and having been felt up for
the first time by TSA the week prior (I travel frequently) I was
not willing to be molested again.” He reportedly refused to
get dressed when asked to do so by TSA screeners so they could
complete the pat-down. It was then that he was arrested.
Adding to the situation was the fact that a person apparently
traveling with Wolanyk reportedly was recording the scene on a
video camera, which was confiscated by police along with Wolanyk's
iPhone. That person is being charged with "unlawful recording
within an airport without permission." TSA's website says it is not
illegal to record such images in a screening area as long as it
does not interfere with the screening process, but local law does
apparently prohibit such recording in the airport.
