TSA pats down a screaming toddler

TSA pats down a screaming toddler

You might think a 3-year-old would whiz through security. A child is non-threatening, wears slip-on shoes, and carries little luggage.

Not the case for Mandy Simon who was passing through security with her dad at the airport in Chattanooga, Tenn.

A good Conservative Action Committee would file a FOIA to obtain the names and addressess of every TSA employee and publish it online.

I cannot believe how dumb many people are on this screening stuff. Lets assume we stop screening infants, little old ladies and men in walkers.

Who would then be forced to carry explosives on board?

Any TSA games turning up in schools or colleges or any such yet (”You be the respectable middle-class business-woman, and I’ll be the TSA agent...”)??

From the article:

...If the TSA is going to search kids, maybe they need a little training on how to do it--or at least employees should have a few lollipops or stickers in their pockets.

This makes me SICK!

We are not going to survive our own stupidity. It’s that simple.

Ever since a TSA employee tried to steal my video camera I haven't trusted any of them.

The background clearance process for most of them was entirely too polite, and some of these punks are clearly criminally inclined.

Doesn't take all that many such people to screw it up for everybody. Darned shame their Grande Jeffe, that Napolitano woman is among the more mentally disturbed people to have ever been a cabinet officer.

The TSA should hire gynecologists and proctologists who have lost their jobs due to Obamacare. At least we could get felt up by medical professionals.

Very funny!

Reminds me of the scene in Dirty Rotten Scoundrels when Michael Caine asks Ruprecht what he did when Uncle Whoever last visited and Ruprecht, with resignation, dons a huge latex glove and lubes it up.

What was that I heard on the last part of the video - ask the ticket people if your boarding pass has the code listed for your child to be searched and ask to be de-selected - what?

There’s a TSA selection code on the boarding pass?

Something like that was a plot element in "Unintended Consequences", only the federal agency was BATF.

Once upon a time, the oppressors wore bright red uniforms. Nowadays, if we want to engage in tar and feathers, we need lists on the internet to help us find the folks who need makeovers.

obama has exempted muslim women from scanning and full body pat downs. So what is to stop a muslim terrorist woman or man dressed like a woman from bringing explosives on a plane now, Ray?

Re #6

Oh dear heavens. Funny but so sad.

I made 16 flights to Baltimore and back due to foot surgery. Had 30 some nails going through the bones in my feet. They gave me a pat down every time because of the metal. The whole system is completely insane, but every insanity that drives our country comes from the left.

I’m hoping the little toddler did “whiz” through security - while they had her diaper off. That might teach ‘em.
