A former TSA screener at Denver International Airport says colleagues who conspired to grope male passengers viewed what they were doing as “just a game.”

He opted to speak after a CBS4 Investigation earlier this week revealed two TSA screeners were fired for participating in a conspiracy to allow a male TSA agent to grope the genitals of male passengers.

“There was more people that knew it was going on,” the former worker told CBS4.

He asked he not be identified as TSA forbids current and former employees from discussing security procedures.

So I get it, when a male gropes another male it's just a game. When a male gropes a female it's sexual assault.

Your hate for anything Christian comes thru loud and clear. Preaching tolerence by being intolerant. Gotta love the hypocrisy!

Here is what I don't understand Dell, you accuse Danzig of hating "anything Christian" because she points out specific facts about so-called "Christian" ideology that quite frankly deviates from mainstream Christianity...radical viewpoints that dwell on a narrow interpretation of a specific passage (interestingly usually from the Old Testament) while ignoring the teachings of Christ (you know, stuff like love, forgiveness, equality, tolerance of others etc). Often times I get confused by the religious right's focus on the Old Testament (understandable for Jewish folks but Christians??). We are very critical of Islamic fundamentalists but radical "Christians" are admired for their steadfast belief that words in a 2000 year old book written by men is somehow the indisputable truth word for word...stone any adulterers lately?

Thanks somer.

I have no issue with christianity. I do have issues with those who are trying to tear down the separation of church and state, and those who twist jesus' teachings of love to justify hatred and discrimination. And I certainly do not support inequality, like that woman is espousing. She has a right to her opinion, I have the right to disagree.

Radicalized Christianity is just as twisted as radicalized Islam. I was raised a Catholic as a kid and this form of Christianity in no way whatsoever resembles the tolerance that I was taught.

You're right. Putting Moses in a text book or denying a gay wedding pizza and cake is the same thing as beheading someone or flying planes into buildings.

Imagine a world where radicalized Islamism imitated radicalized Christianity in that instead of killing gays they refused them cake and pizza at their weddings. And instead of beating/killing/castrating their daughters for dating/driving and just being women, they protested them having abortions!

What a wonderful world it could be!

Oh, oh look a squirrel.
