I think you sheeple drones need to wake up to reality that everything you see in the news on the internet and on TV isn't the truth your a sheeple kneeling to the government; cowards all of you.edit on 11-4-2011 by XRaDiiX because: (no reason given)
Really? Ok, you're right. We're not hated. Hell, the Muslims LOVE us and PRAISE us for bombing Afghanistan, Pakistan, Iraq, Yemen, Libya, etc.
Nope, no one wants to harm us. Not even when we support Israel. Nope. No hatred from Islamic extremists. No hatred from extremist groups when you illustrate Mohammad. Nope.

Yet for some reason, simply because they leave the ground, they are searched like this ?
The truth is that this is a method of getting your acceptance - next stop it will be the school bus, the theatre, the Grey hound.
Let me be very, very clear to Americans - these types of scanners are in Australia and many other countries - they are illegal to simply use on anyone - you must be suspected of first carrying a weapon or drugs and then AGREE to the search and if not you are taken to a hospital for an internal xray.
This is Americans, the people, bowing down and groveling like slaves. Americans have become weak.

Not that I agree with this kind of search, but after reading all of the replies here I have to ask,, Does it matter that this happened to a little GIRL. It seems most people are talking about if this happened to my daughter I would....So I have to ask,, Would we still be as outraged if this were a little boy?? I wonder...

So... Where was the groping? That was a search... Not an inappropriate touch. That said, I do hate what the TSA does and they do push the legal boundaries ( being kind on that one)... But let's be fair here. There was no inappropriate touching going on... And to accuse some one of touching a child inappropriately is not cool.... At all.
It is a sad fact that people will take advantage of children and hide drugs and weapons on them hoping that security will pass them up... It happens all the time....
Yep, it sucks, but there was no child molestation in this video.... So let's be careful not to accuse people of such a horrible crime, when it is obvious that it did not happen.....

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:
Hey, maybe I'll immigrate to Australia............Americans have become "compliant".
However, I think what happens in America is Ground Zero testing for the globe.
If this isn't nipped in the bud, if enough people refuse to be scanned and searched and it's going to have to be the majority, this will only continue, get worse and like a cancer spread.
