Hmm where were you when the white tsa officer did the same to the little boy near thanksgiving time.
Or is it ok for white folk to "feel up" kids....edit on 11-4-2011 by TheLogicalist because: (no reason given)

I like how he brings up race but when I reply to hom regarding the white officer doing the same thing he goes quiet and ignores my post.
Hmm maybe in his mind it is ok if just whites did that.
I'm not black but it ticks me off when someone tries to pull the race card
For unneeded reasons.

What exactly do you expect them to do? Three points:
1) Like it or not there are people who can and will use children and our sensitivities to them against us by hiding items on their bodies. There are a fair amount of people in the world who would do some very sick things to a child to accomplish the aims of the almighty god.
2) This is far from "groping", by definition.
3) If the issue is that it's the government doing it, fine, I tend to agree and I'm no government apologist. However, if we removed the government and required airport owners and airlines themselves to provide their own security (which would be fine with me) provided they took the burden should they miss anything, it would be whatever security company these companies would hire doing the exact same thing.
Would it be different if it was a private company?

I won't fly, my husband won't fly we gave up vacations where we can't drive and have not seen the kids far off fow some time. i refuse to be put through feeling like a criminal.
As i mentioned on another thread, my daughter in her late 20's young and beautiful with a little baby in arms u nder a year old, flew with her running club and husband to a race. She was singled out for a full body search and it was very upsetting for her...all the running club in their matched tops and hats are these a lickly terrorist and if so why were they not ALL searched the whole thing was weird! And WRONG!!!

metal detectors are fine i never complained about them. i would even opt for sniffer dogs that can sniff out anybody carrying something banned over a pat down as long as the dogs were not intimidating in any way.

there is no excuse for pat downs, at all.
and if you think the only thing you have lost in 10 years is the ability to not have a pat down, then i cannot help you. if we focus only on airports i would agree, but you have lost way more than that due to 9/11.

Either there's too much security or when something happens there isn't enough. I agree that it is pretty much taboo for this. I work in this industry and we have been informed via internal memorandums that there was an incident in England where a mother had strapped an IED on her child, whether that's true or not or just created to condone additional screening, it's still terrible. It's really sad to see what this world is coming to..
However, I would like to add that this TSA agent went about her job very professionally and made every attempt to explain the procedure to the family and the girl as it continued, and no, it's not a drug test (like stated by the mother at 1:25). Anyways, that's just my 2 cents.edit on 10-4-2011 by kathael because:

Apparently you already made up your mind rather she had a racial motive..
you called her a "racist child molesting bitch".
And went to talk about her welfare check.
Basically you insulted someone for only doing her job.
Which I believe is unfair.
