In Brief:
During a recent trip through the JFK Airport, a man claiming to be a woman was left crying accusing TSA of assault after his genitals were accidentally hit during a screening.
The Background:
An unidentified “transgender woman” has claimed that an encounter with TSA caused “her” to cry for hours and posted on social media “my balls still hurt so bad,” after an unsuspecting TSA agent accidentally groped them while screening this supposed woman.
In the now-deleted Tweets, the passenger claimed the TSA yelled at her for having a penis and then followed her into the bathroom. She states she was “humiliated” by the whole ordeal.
According to the New York Post she does not want the TSA agent to be fired, she said in a separate post, but wanted “her educated and the entirety of TSA abolished altogether.”
JFK Airport has apologized for the incident.
