Tyranny for Toddlers:TSA Pat Downs for Kids
David Horowitz's NewsReal Blog ^ | Stacy Webber

Posted on 11/17/2010 7:32:03 AM PST by Michael van der Galien

When I saw the video of the three year old girl screaming “Stop touching me!” as the TSA agent was administering her “pat down”, I have to say that I was proud of her.

Here was a little girl with common sense enough to know that there was something inherently wrong with what was taking place. In any other setting, besides the doctor’s office perhaps, having a stranger touch EVERY part of your body (against your will) would be considered an assault. But we all know that radical Islam would not shrink away from using a child as a bomb delivery system so this kind of action is necessary to keep us “safe.”

Right?

The recent changes to airport security feel more like a class on tyranny than any true measure of security. The changes have left me with some unnerving questions about the message we are sending America’s children.

What are we teaching our children by subjecting them to this kind of search? Make no mistake, infant to adult, the TSA is sending a message. The option of walking through the body scanner or consenting to an invasive, demoralizing pat down is no option at all. We are guilty until proven innocent by these bizarre methods that would have shocked George Orwell. The word is still out on whether or not a scan of a child is considered child pornography. I have seen the images of the body scans- there is nothing left to the imagination and it is a fact that these images are not being deleted but stored despite the governments promises to the contrary.

The nation and the world are completely insane. It has gotten so bad that nothing short of a civil war and the death of millions can purge this country. Obviously that’s not going to happen. Nothing can ever stop this and it will never end.

What I’m about to say will once again offend people on this forum but that’s just too bad:

Do not have children! Do not conceive them! They have nothing to live for in this hellish world. If you deliberately bring a child into this world then you are a FOOL!

I’m sure the public school system is looking forward to this.

Libs have been trying to sexualize kids for awhile, going from sex ed encouraging risky behavior to explaining to kindegarteners that gay is normal.

Teacher needs to be sure your not smuggling in aspirin, you know.

Are you kidding? The affirmative-action, third grade dropouts that comprise the TSA are enjoying themselves.

These “devices are designed and deployed in a way that allows the images to be routinely stored and recorded, which is exactly what the Marshals Service is doing,” EPIC executive director Marc Rotenberg told CNET. “We think it’s significant.”

William Bordley, an associate general counsel with the Marshals Service, acknowledged in the letter that “approximately 35,314 images…have been stored on the Brijot Gen2 machine” used in the Orlando, Fla. federal courthouse. In addition, Bordley wrote, a Millivision machine was tested in the Washington, D.C. federal courthouse but it was sent back to the manufacturer, which now apparently possesses the image database.
The Gen 2 machine, manufactured by Brijot of Lake Mary, Fla., uses a millimeter wave radiometer and accompanying video camera to store up to 40,000 images and records. Brijot boasts that it can even be operated remotely: “The Gen 2 detection engine capability eliminates the need for constant user observation and local operation for effective monitoring. 5, Using our APIs, instantly connect to your units from a remote location via the Brijot Client interface.”

ONE THING is certain and that is change. Yes this will be stopped and it will too end. It will likely by something terribly unpleasant such as you mentioned above.

All that said and your advice about not having children to the contrary, many children are born each day and will continue to be born until the end of time.

Really nasty difficult days ahead - yes. Should we panic and put our heads in the sand now - heck no. Just prepare both physically and mentally.

Saw a TV anchor this morning commenting on this story. He said it was unlikely a 3-yr old would be a terrorist. What he missed is that a terrorist could hide contraband on a 3-yr old.

This is Germany and it's 1930-ish. We only have two choices: leave the country or stand and fight. This is about control, and the humiliation of giving up privacy is a calculated part of the plan.

Like Hitler and the Nazis, American socialists are working hard to register and confiscate our weapons, limit our speech and right to assemble, and fill us with propaganda. Please, God, don't make us learn the lessons of World War II all over again.

Charming. Desensitizing little kids to think it’s OK to be touched by stranger.

___________________________________________

In the government schools they are teaching them to chant

“Dont touch my NoNo Square”

and then they are demanding to touch that same NoNo Square when the children are to fly off to visit Grandma or Mickey...

Child psychiatrists please chime in

The other thing missing is the 3 year olds Fourth Amendment rights.

I don't see that as obvious at all.

Let's cut to the chase here.

The National and TSA leadership have, by the demonstrated actions of their subordinates, decided that young children are a direct threat to the safety of air travelers.

The national and TSA leadership are, by reports from various media sources, considering allowing Islamic women, identified by the wearing of their traditional clothing, are going to immune to the same level of security forced on two year old children.

BTW - were there a few Taliban male senior leaders captured in Afghanistan attempting to evade detection/capture by wearing traditional Islamic female clothing?

Oh, yes. I forgot that one size doesn't fit all.

If there is going to per full scale body scans and physical fondling of people lets do it to the people most likely to attempt terrorist acts.

But I forget, that's so judgmental.

Maybe they like their new function in their jobs?

I wonder how many of them are light in the loafers?

(That’s a new angle I am sure they will love- If I worked as one of this paid mall cops I would NOT agree to grope anyone)

This has got to stop! The only reason it’s being done to innocent American children is so as NOT to ANGER the people who plant bombs on their children.

Normal people don’t put bombs around their childrens’ waists. Got it? White, Christian or Jewish Americans don’t sacrifice their innocent children to some crazy ideology! Got it?

The people who DO put BOMBS around their childrens’ waists are the very ones who need to be checked! Look and see what Israel does. Do the same thing here. Any questions?
