The problem is this secondary screening process, and the policies enacted in it. It's a child. Yes, it's possible the child could be carrying for someone else, but it isn't worth the trauma to thousands of children just because something is possible.
And above all, no police officer would be permitted to conduct that type of search on a little child. Why would we permit those who have less authority, less training, and less answering to the public conduct searches a police officer is forbidden to do?
This is the conversation that you or your wife IS going to have with YOUR CHILD_ _
Mommy to her little girl: Honey, if anyone ever touches you or even tries to touch you between your legs I want you to immediately tell me or Daddy, your teacher or the police officer.
Little girl to Mommy: Last week Dr. Miller had me spread my legs she could look down there.
Mommy to her little girl: I know Honey, I was right there with you. Dr. Miller was looking to see if the red marks on your leg were healing okay.
Little girl to Mommy: OK, Mommy I’ll make sure nobody ever touches me there.
Mommy to her little girl: Well, that’s except when you fly to Aunt Margie’s in the summer. The TSA ladies at the airport are allowed to touch you anywhere they want to. If they want to they can put their hands down inside your panties before you get on the plane. You are supposed to feel better after they squeeze your little behind. I don’t know why but that’s what the man on the TV news station said. President Obama says it’s for your own good.
_ _ UNLESS YOU CALL YOUR REPS AND COMPLAIN! The TSA is going to become the Gestapo if we don’t resist this molestation of our wives and children. I suggest calling your Reps office every day until they stop this. Be sure to call the airlines asking them to protest.
