The TSA detains one of their critics with a full body pat down

Sen. Rand Paul, a critic of the TSA, is being detained by the TSA in Nashville. He refused a full body pat down. See also here.

Paul has been a vocal critic of the TSA. At a Congressional hearing on TSA practices and policies last summer, Paul criticized the agency for its controversial searches of children.
“You’ve gone overboard and you’re missing the boat on terrorism because you’re doing these invasive searches on six-year-old girls,” he said. “I think you oughta get rid of the random pat-downs. The American public is unhappy with them. They're unhappy with the invasiveness of them.”
