I always opt out of the scanner (even have a special shirt [1]), and without fail they always stand me by the intake (radio-leaky-end) of the baggage x-ray machine for 5+ minutes.

LOL I need to buy that shirt. I'm disabled and kinda dark so they're always "randomly" going for me.

How do you know the dude in blue is a fascist, and a jerk?

		To be fair, I think most of the TSA agents are not, many are just doing their job and trying to bring some dignity to a tense situation. I travel a lot and have met some very kind TSA agents. But as an organization, they clearly have a culture that allows or even encourages people to openly abuse and harass travelers, and punish people for exercising their rights. When I was being sexually harassed by a TSA agent, the other agents standing nearby allowed it to happen and said nothing.

lol

I had a phase where I would always wear this "cease your investigators" shirt, never had any comments but yea stood by the machine for 5 minutes or so, never considered the machine would be radiating outward as well as inward, but yeah, mostly did it as a small protest, thought it worth demonstrating you don't have to comply.
