Are Six-Year-Old Girls a National Security Risk?

Thank God we are safe from 5 year olds in this country! How stupid can you get? We ought to be ashamed of our government, for putting these children through this.  Is there no end to it?

start taking names of tsa molesters and put them on a sex offenders list website. The chief pervert in charge seems to think it is ok to molest  children maybe we should start with hers.
They have caught ZERO terrorists and harmed many children.

WOMEN WITH INTELLIGENCE AND EXPERINCE,MEN WHO SUPPORT THEM AND COUNTRY BEFORE PARTY ALWAYS

PUMAS,BUBBAS,EQUALISTS AND THOSE CHATTERING PEOPLE RULE

The TSA has now become a real attractive employment opportunity for perverts of all stripes.  I mean, where else can you legally grope children and adults and not get arrested.

Indeed. Those with moral fiber need not apply.

Wow

I think the whole thing  is appalling and offensive.  I don’t know if I could have stood by and watched this done to my child.  No way.  They could throw me and the kid in jail. This is sexual molestation.

” this is going to get me in trouble but is anyone checking
out the racial percentages of these TSA ladies vs their victims? ”
———————
I  thought the same thing too…

How can these people look at themselves at the end of
the day, all people are not the same.
They could damage these children for the rest of their lives.

I know someone who is 80 years old, she said she was
humiliated and disgusted.

I don’t care what anyone says,  this is because of Obama and his
Homeland Security Chief Big Sis Napolitano
>:o

HOW CAN THESE PEOPLE LIVE WITH THEMSELVES!!!!!

They’re trash that should be hauled away to the nearest landfill for a proper burial.

“TSA AGENT SAYS- “HEY I THOUGHT I WAS GOING TO DO HER”

Some of these agents may prefer one sex to the other
or one race to  the other, “PERVERTS”
>:o

It’s sickening to see a 6 year old undergoing an enhanced “pat-down” by a TSA agent, or an 8 year old child for that matter. It’s just sickening to even contemplate that these things are going on in our country. Disheartening, sickening and disgusting. 

But I wish Americans would all just say no to flying, period. If they did, the airlines would demand that TSA stop this madness. Until Americans stand up and say NO by refusing to fly anywhere, this sickening madness will continue. 

Until Americans stand up and say NO by refusing to fly anywhere, this ickening madness will continue. 
====================================
I have, Noogan. My company wanted me to fly out of state for a conference. I told them I would not be subjected to sexual assault and would only drive. Funny thing is, they understood entirely and sent some other poor sap.

These TSA employees are the rejects form an applicant pool for gargage men, ( I do hate to make it seem tha I am putting down gargage men), garbage men and Port-a-John cleaners are held in higher esteem than TSA employees.   

This is disturbing on so many levels…As I understand it, the parents requested an alternative screening method, which was denied. No reason was given for assaulting this child.

As y’all know, I have had my own experiences with the TSA sexual assaults, the last one being particularly egregious (the agent used a known faulty machine, which gave a false positive. That landed me in a wood I can only describe as a storage room, where I was subjected to an even MORE invasive pat down. I admit, after I finally got away from those people, I was in tears.).

But this is a child. It is one thing to do this to an adult, which believe me, is horrible enough. It is quite another to do it to someone so young with NO cause.

The ACLU is finally getting into gear, and has an Action on this very issues as a result of what happened to this little girl. You can write your Congressperson HERE.

RRRA: I am so sorry that you were abused in such a fashion. This sort of government-sponsored criminal activity will cease at some point if all of us just say “no”. I write my senators and congressman each month with a laundry list of things for them to consider. This TSA crap is always on the list. No American should have to put up with this sort of violation of their person, ever. I am incensed at the gall of these perverts (yes, I said perverts).

“Write your Congressperson….”  Rand Paul is this little girls congressperson.  In fact I would bet that this father and Rand are good friends.  He is a doctor, Rand is a doctor, both live in the same city (same as myself).  We need to hear from Rand concerning this.  There should be an outcry throughout this country concerning this.  Makes me wonder if this little girl’s father was singled out being a doctor and coming from Rand’s hometown.  Sorry, but I don’t trust anyone anymore.  We are about to self-destruct here and there is nothing we can do.  The budget compromise is just what I had feared, we were sold down the river by John Boehner.  This is just my opinion but the Repubs have their problems in the party with the entrenched “Rino’s” vs. the freshman class vs. the tea party.  We are going to “hell in a hand-basket” and there is NO ONE out there to help us stop this now.  All of them should be impeached.  JMO >:o

So glad you wrote about this Pat!!  Love your toon!  That little girl is a delight – even if the topic is disgusting and the video is sickening!  

I might be afraid if the girl was wearing a burqa with a big bulge under it…. O:-)

“Say What You Will…It Feels So Good”

I just sent this to DeJarlais:

Issue: WEBHOM
Message Subject: TSA Assaults
Message Text:
Congressman: The subjection of American citizens to felonious assault or irradiation by scanners at airports are both direct violations of civil liberties and should be condemned by anyone with a capacity of both reading and comprehension of the Constitution. I voted for you because I personally thought you would work towards getting both the nanny and pappy government off our collective backs. I do not need felonious assault by TSA or irradiation by the same agency in order to fly. There are alternate means of implementation, which apparently have been overlooked by the federal government, which has once again decided to punish everyone for the actions of a scant few. I expect you to work to change this TSA policy as soon as possible. I will not fly now or at any point in the future so long as the federal government is intent on violating my person rather than performing actual profiling on those who would actually commit crimes. Irradiation via pornographic scanners and sexual molestation are not keeping this country safe and are an anathema to a free society. That you do not have to suffer such indignities is no excuse for inaction. Either we go after the actual terrorists or we stop the hysteria. your choice. Sincerely, xxxxxx

What “teachable moment” was that young girl exposed to?

That this a constitutionally acceptable behavior???

What do I think Rev.Amy? …….

Ok, I’m back…I literally had to walk away for a spell. To tell you what I think I had to get past how I feel, and that ain’t easy.

For anyone who has spent anytime in an airport, looking at the mom and the baby carriage and a 6 year old….with some training in basic profiling this would not be happening and should NOT be happening…
Is this TSA agent aware of what she doing? Does she even give a shit?

On what “resonable” grounds does she have even the right to touch that child?
What is the coast emotionally to the worker? This is BAD.

All I can tell you is if this crap is allowed to continue, I ain’t gonna be standing in some institutionalized line in Metropolis, as oowawa correctly nails!

I am not sure I could retain any measure of civility if I was witnessing that video. I do not think I will go to the airport anytime soon. I do not wish to be arrested for vocally protesting such treatment. How fast do you think one could insite a riot over something like that? Not that I would seek to, it is just that the volitility of the situation is increased without ANY eye to the dangerous possiblities that may occur as a consequence of this girl being battered.

I am thinking on two tracks….Johnny Jihad is doing intelligence runs and observing the fact that this agent is not focused on individuals who DO present a real threat. The possibility of a diversion is present, especially if a scene breaks out. The security in that grid could be yanked. I know we have had binary liquid threats and serious wardrobe malfuntions, but as a security matter the only way this young angel could be a threat is if her parents were being jammed up or she was strapped up with a vest.

Second, what oowawa said. Not ever. I know what pornograhy is when I see it and this disgusting. What does that family tell that child?

So how many criminal cases are active in this arena? How many state AG’s are prosecuting? How is the DOJ civil rights division, the department that Holder came from, involved? Does have to be ” my people” instead of some “corn on the cob” white folks, for him to get of his ass and do his job? (not dissing any one group)

I want to see Barry’s daughters go through this. (not really, I wouldn’t wish this on anyone) but maybe it would get throught that thick head of his what his job is about.

I was having a difficult time with the audio, has anyone seen a transcript of that clip? I would transcribe it but I fear I would puke if had to stop and restart it to do so. Is there a transcript to be had that anyone has seen?

EllenD—I think your question is a valid one….and  it’d be interesting to know the answer.

oowawa—that “metropolis” tape is amazing…and scary! Wow!
Ol’ John Henry Faulk told us 30 years ago that he was becoming concerned because all of the local newscasters across the nation were beginning to look and sound alike. It was downright spooky, once you started observing that.

Patting down American youngsters is just as necessary as the stupid threat-level color scale was necessary during Bush II’s terms.  In other words, it’s all smoke an mirrors for political gain.  Only difference was that somehow colors and numbers were not as perverted as the daily assault on citizens the TSA workers carry out.

My heart goes out to the little one in the video; she is very confused as to what this person is doing to her! Thank goodness her mother was close by to at least give her some sense and comfort! It is an outrage to put a small innocent child through these horrendous pat downs!
I can assure you it’s no different a feeling when your child is 12. My daughter was taken to a glass box and a TSA guy stood in front of it with his arm across the entrance, I take it so she did not try to get out! She had to wait around until he found a free female worker, to do the pat down so she became confused! I was motioned to go through the security line and collect our belongings and wait at the end until the pat down etc was complete….All I remember were her eyes popping out of her head!

~JustMe~—-I’m so sorry that happened—how horrible for both of you!

As a foreigner, I had to look up EO, Ferd. THe first thing that came to my mind was the Edmonton Oilers Hockey Team.

and I’m sure the victims are of all races.
And the TSA agents?

 The child groping by TSA is outrageous.  Perhaps more people should take the lead of Jesse Ventura with a lawsuit.

Thanks JustMe.  I was going to say, one has to copy the link into the address window of your browser to open it, but you fixed it.

And another thing….

I’ve been paying attention to systems and devices we pay for in our municipalities and states that spy on us to keep us in line; things that taxpayers pay for in order to “keep us all safe” from the actions of a few.  Do the cost in dollars and in privacy warrant them?

More importantly, how do we teach personal responsibility, impelled discipline or conscionability to our children when, in fact, they no longer have to hold the reins of their own behavior or suffer the internal pangs of personal regret for wrong-doing?  Why should these things matter to them in a world where, if they do something wrong, it will be caught on camera or recorded to a remote system which triggers a gov’t worker at some level (from grammar school to department of motor vehicles) to issue a citation?  These things give Marx’s “alienation” an entirely different hue.

Ridiculous….

Your excellent letter motivated me to write one of my own borrowing, er stealing from yours. I sent one to each of my Senators and to Paul Ryan who is my congressman.

They can ignore us if they only get a few letters. They can’t ignore a deluge. Let’s make it rain on their parade.

You know, this is not the TSA workers’ fault; they are simply trying to hold on to their job.

It IS is the fault of the federal agency (TSA) which put these ridiculous, horrible, unconstitutional procedures in place, and the irresponsible cabinet secretary (Napolitano) who approved them, and the goddamned f*cking president of the United States who appointed the cabinet secretary.

AND Congress, which has the power to outlaw this TODAY, and refuses to do so.

And another thing:  Paying for a war of choice like Iraq or Libya is bad enough, but the idea that my tax money is paying for VICTIMIZING AMERICAN CHILDREN AND ENCOURAGING PEDOPHILIA really, really, really pisses me off. 

You know I am already in trouble for this and I don’t really care…I would like to know that my family and I are safe when we fly. Even if that means my small great grandchildren and I are groped before we get into the plane…
 
Yes it is sick that our children have to go through this type of groping to fly with their parents. Maybe it should have been toned down a bit.  But your child blown to pieces by some weird bomber…Take your pick.
 
How soon some of you have forgotten how the  terrorists have used young boys, pregnant women and old women as suicide bombers in our wars in Israel and other places…
 
What is to prevent them from using a young white Caucasian child, or maybe a white Caucasian preteen that looks very young for their age. I know the child on the video was not acting but believe it or not I know many 6 -10 year olds that could look and play that part very well.
 
The terrorist  have been actively recruiting for Caucasian American Women in the states.  Already several American Caucasian women have be caught, but how many are still out there. How many might have or will have children they will brain wash to the Terrorist thinking…
 
Look at Israel’s airlines and their record…How do you think they keep their airports and airplanes safe…Yes a lot is profiling but a lot is similar to what we are doing now.
 
Remember every time the terrorist see a loop hole they will try and use it…The shoe bomber, the underpants bomber, the UPS package bombs around Christmas time…
 
IF we get  careless and lax at that airports, I bet you that the terrorist will hear and see it and try and use it..What you be saying when they succeed because we were negligent.

You can’t let the terrorrists cow you into submission.  Yes, they would like to kill people.  But their main purpose in killing people is to instill an atmosphere of terror into the populace–that’s why they’re called terrorists.  Once they have terrified us to the extent that we are willing to hand over our little children to gestapo groping in the name of security, they have succeeded in cowing us into submission.

You want to do something useful in the name of security?  Inspect the ports and look at every shipment coming into this country.  Watch the borders.

kinthenorthwest — the Israelis do NOT grope people, they do not use intrusive scanning, and they NEVER treat children or ANYONE this way unless their behavior is suspicious.  At airports they do verbal pre-screening and sophisticated behavioral profiling of each passenger, and using these non-invasive, non-abusive techniques they have a 100% success rate.

I have been arguing here that Americans need to get serious and adopt Israeli methods. Treating every single passenger as if they are a likely terrorist is the opposite of getting serious.

Only a fool would think that child was a terrorist, and only a monster would say she or any other child should be treated like one. 

On the ABC news report about this, the mother said her daughter was trying to do everything “right” during the assault (my word, not hers), but that afterward she started crying and kept asking what she’d done wrong to be treated like that.

The parents also said that the TSA employee and supervisor made it clear through their body language and tone of voice that if the parents made any objection they would be put through hell.

Face it guys gone are the days we could just leave our doors unlocked or even open at night to let in a cool breeze on a hot summers night.
Gone are the days we just parked our car unlocked at home, at work, while shopping or ????
Gone are the days that we could let  our kids walk to school by themselves,  play in the park down the block without strict adult supervision or ???

Hey at 7 & 8 I was walking to the store close to a mile a way for my mom to pick up some odd thing for her or spend some money I had gotten…By myself…NO MORE….
I walked home from school that was about 10 blocks or so away in 1st, 2nd and 3rd grade cause my older siblings stayed later…NO MORE…

Times have changed a whole lot…And its not just the Muslim Terriorist…

My bad on the assault this was an assault and battery (touching is a battery).

Sick MF’rs all of them!

OOOOHHHH, the boogey man’ll get you.

As for adopting Isralie techniques, didn’t Larry & John Huey already explain how difficult (if not impossible) this would be since we have a bazillion more flights a day than they do. Israel is tiny, we’re a very large county.

Yes, the world is a more dangerous place.  I will lock my doors, and my car, but I will not let strangers at the airport grope my granddaughters . . .

Perhaps the whole TSA is a big mistake.  The airlines have a vested interest in keeping their passengers safe and making sure their planes don’t get blown up.  Let them do it.  Fire the federal gestapo!

 Fire the federal gestapo!
===========
I heartily second that motion.

All in favor say, AYE.

Aye Aye Aye Aye!

Love it, oowawa.

kinthenorthwest – I’m sick and tired of you slamming Israel and spreading false information. Yes, they have metal detectors everywhere, and people’s bags are searched when they enter malls or fairs or concerts or schools. But they don’t grope children!!!, because terrorist attacks occur everywhere, But the people manning those detectors have some common sense and know

I agree Ferd.  Going places is entirely overrated, anyway . . .

Don’t like TSA screening policies? You’re suspect then:

http://www.cnn.com/2011/TRAVEL/04/15/tsa.screeners.complain/

Hmm… one has to wonder what your motive is here.   There’s countries around the world that experience critical situations every day and yet not one of them does a pat down on a child.  My guess is that the TSA wants travellers to bear witness to the fact that they are willing to do it to a child.  Yet, certain groups such as Muslim women are exempt.  It’s complete BS that they are now targeting children and they are getting called on it.  Everybody knows it except it seems, you.

You can bet your bottom dollar the Israelis grope when profiling indicates they should. The difference between Israel and the US is that they actually deter terrorism by going after the real thugs and not by inconveniencing every fucking passenger on every plane so they can create even bigger fiefdoms for themselves and their progeny. Israel does it correctly. Our government is clueless.

“Attitude problem!  We have an attitude problem over here!”  I’ve been through that–for daring to ask a question . . . The woman shouting those words looked like Janet Napolitano in uniform.

My answer to TSA…..
