(Newser) – Not a big fan of full-body scans or TSA pat-downs, a San Diego man chose Option C: Stripping down to his Calvin Kleins to demonstrate he wasn't carrying anything untoward in them. Samuel Wolanyk was told to put his clothes back on for a proper pat-down, but refused to dress, reports MSNBC. A woman watching was charged for taping the incident on her phone. Wolanyk faces charges for refusing to complete the security process.

"TSA needs to see that I'm not carrying any weapons, explosives, or other prohibited substances, I refuse 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."

An airline passenger opted to strip down to his Calvin Kleins rather than undergo a pat-down. This, however, is Kellan Lutz.

the government is dead set on making sure all of the travelers of the world 'know' who is really in control, kind-of the same way a rapist inflicts power onto their victim. Or the way abusive parents try and avoid allowing their own children simple and minimal freedom. Lets get the real reason the feds wanna touch up the spots they need not be feeling up......they want to make us ashamed! Mormoms...u should drive to ur destination. They arent tryna prevent anything. Imagine the truth behind this whole problem, they want to make u feel unsafe; that's y they "must" grope (pardon me, 'search') u! They arent tryna make the journey as quick as they make out, they're tryna show off "power"....molesters!
