Not THEM, the hijab and headdress wearers. The BABY. It sounds like a name confusion.

The baby was likely a name match to a record and they had to check it out.

I would have laughed it off and considered it a great adventure, but then I’m a little weird.

Mall cops are never wrong. Don’t tell them their job.

Everyone under 15 should be on a no-fly list.

"TSA did not flag this child as being on the No Fly list,"

"TSA determined the airline had mistakenly indicated the child was on a government watch list."

Classic doublespeak going on by the dipwads at the TSA.

I just do not want to fly anymore...planning a cross country trip and I'll probably drive the entire way by myself...hubby can't get as much time off and he'll fly and drive back with me....

its bad enough that the planes cram you into tiny little seats with no leg room, and make dozens of people use the same tiny little br, but now the feds are making the getting on a plane a nightmare...

A 2011 poll from the Pew Research Center found that Muslim Americans say they believe they are disproportionately singled out by airport security officers.

I can't imagine why that would be!

I bet it was the 2-year long al-queda training camp the 18-month old went to...

Whoever is to blame, the parents say they believe the incident began because they are both of Middle Eastern descent and because the wife wears a hijab, a traditional headscarf.

No! No! No! TSA is EEOC compliant. They treat everybody equally stupidly. "We'll have to question the baby some more."

What’s next, the unborn child registry at the White House becoming the no-fly list?

I’d have asked the TSA agent:

“What’d you do? Pack you brains in with the checked luggage?”

“Did you even stop to ask yourself whether there has ever been a toddler on a no-fly list?”

“It’s for the children.” Don’t fight wars. Start police states, instead.

I don’t think it was an accident. I believe the parents were up to something and needed to be checked out. I am glad that TSA was doing their job for a change.
