ReplyDeleteThe TSA Needs To Fund This Little Girls Trip Anywhere She Wants To Go This Is Total Crap And Further Proves That Americas Government Is Going To Hell
ReplyDeleteThe old "baby in the wheelchair" trick, eh? Thank GOD for the TSA (said no one EVER)
ReplyDeleteIm thankful for tsa....I like knowing there is less likely a shithead on the plane im on. So YES THANK YOU TSA!!!
DeleteWelcome to the "New World Order." And as the sheep that we are, we will continue to let things like this happen......
ReplyDeleteUntil somebody gets fed up enough to do something about it.
DeleteThis happened to us as well... my son was 3 when he was picked for the "extra screening". I also put up a fight and said that that would not be happening. They then told me that he was then going to have to go through the xray device. I said NO way he will freak out as soon as you close the door and they still have not determined how much radiation goes through your body. After speaking with two managers and explaining my reasoning they said that my husband and I would have to be patted down (which we agreed to) Just Ridiculous!
ReplyDeleteWow. I have 10 month old and I cannot think any mom would want to do something crazy to harm her baby. What were they thinking? We all want to protect out babies and what kind of chemical is a mom going to put on her child or her child's things that is so bad for the plane? Wouldn't it be harmful to her baby in the first place? Your little girl is gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteStandard procedure is great and all, but there's also a little something called "due process" in the United States. Because this child is obviously too young to make a cognitive decision, the TSA would have had to have the parent's consent to put their hands on the child at all. Seeing as how they did not have the consent of the parent, the TSA is actually violating a constitutional right, unless they had a warrant or reason to believe the child was, in fact, a danger to other passengers or a threat to security. I have a hard time believing that they had either of those things, which goes against the essence of justice, which their very "procedures" are built on in compliance with United States law.
ReplyDelete(Source- Law school graduate. These are the cases I work on.)
unreal. and disgusting!!! id love to do that to them and see how they feel afterwards! low life's!
ReplyDeleteYou're* safety*
ReplyDeleteIf you're going to insult somebody and call them stupid, at least use the correct form of the word...
This is outrageous that they wanted to take a three year old handicapped child into a separate room to use a "swab machine". Is that a joke? Simply an abuse of power with that whole "it's illegal to video record TSA" bit. If you think that this protocol is completely okay, than I think that you're an illiterate, closed-minded bafoon.
So who's stupid now?
Thank you for reading.
As much as I hate the TSA in its current form, I see nothing wrong with wanting to search the wheelchair for explosives, nor the girl's possessions. Extremist terrorists think nothing of strapping bombs to children and sending them to suicide for glory, I'm quite certain they'd have no problem filling a little American girl's wheelchair with explosives. I can even understand not wanting their procedures to be recorded. They don't know this woman, don't know if she's gathering intel on the screening process to review later for weak spots to exploit. These are actually pretty reasonable procedures.
ReplyDeleteWhat I *DO* have a problem with, is how these agents (really, the vast, VAST majority of TSA agents) act. Not once do they handle the little girl as if she were, you know, a LITTLE GIRL. They do nothing to reassure her or her mother, they do nothing to help them be comfortable with the screening process, they're perfectly content to just bully them around like cattle or cargo, with little regard. I have dealt with children in stressful situations before, such as being lost, being hurt by medical procedures, etc. If just one of these agents, at any point, took a knee to be at the girl's level and spoke in a soft, reassuring voice, explaining everything they were doing in a simple manner, I can promise you that the girl wouldn't have been reduced to tears.
KINDNESS, people. The first step to ensuring public safety is KINDNESS. When the people don't feel like they're being victimized by those responsible for their safety, it makes everyone's lives easier, *including* the safety personnel.
But will they ever learn? No. So long as Joe Schmuck can walk into an airport and get a job pushing authority around on others, we'll still get these useless douchebag asshats treating women and children like absolute garbage, and it sickens me.
