Dad “Sick to his Stomach” after 10-Year-Old Daughter’s “Invasive” TSA Pat Down
Daily Sheeple ^ | 1/7/2016 | Melissa Dykes

Posted on 01/09/2016 5:17:21 AM PST by HomerBohn

(Watch video at link)

Father Kevin Payne is outraged after what he has deemed as a line-crossing two-minute pat down of his 10-year-old daughter Vendela by TSA at the Raleigh-Durham International Airport. The additional security was triggered by a juice pouch Vendela accidentally left in her carry-on bag.

"It was excessive, it was invasive, I was pretty much boiling in my head," he told ABC News. (source)

Payne recorded the pat down on his phone and uploaded the video to YouTube despite the fact that the TSA agent lied and told him that filming was not allowed (it absolutely is).

"While there was a SHOE BOMBER, Agent completely ignores shoes & quickly focuses on my 10 yr old child's buttox, thighs & pelvic areas," Payne wrote in the YouTube video of the incident he uploaded to YouTube.

It's tough to watch the part where it appears the agent is going to lift the girl's shirt. The girl reaches for the hem immediately, a pained look on her face at potentially being undressed in public. The agent pats down her thighs front and back multiple times and around the little girl's breasts.

It really is hard to watch. Her father wrote that he felt like he was watching his 5th grade daughter get assaulted.

And yet, he stood by filming it and watching it happen...

It's a wonder if Americans will ever rise up in mass and simply stop allowing themselves to be subjected to this guilty-until-proven-not-a-terrorist behavior. If everyone across the country simply refused fly for even one whole day to boycott this, it would stop. Instead, our nation's citizens continue to diligently trudge through the airports and subject themselves and their children to be groped and in some cases sexually assaulted by government goons day in and day out.

It's ridiculous, especially considering the TSA has already been found to completely fail at doing its job 95% of the time...

I was so angry watching this, I found myself shaking—having to walk away.

I have a son. But I also have a niece. Had I seen some character doing this to her when she was that age, I’d probably be in prison right now, doing time. Of course, I’d be in line behind her dad, who would be on death row I’m sure.

He needs to find out if that TSA agent is a lesbo, she sure looked like it to me!

I think "No Fly Day" is a good idea. If even 50% of travelers stayed home, the airlines would be on the phones to the Senators they own and operate demanding changes.

One of the many reasons why TSA Pre-Check is worth the time and trouble.

I get your point, but I’m speaking to the mindset of the little girl

caveat.....I didn’t watch a video, I just saw pictures

If the father said to his daughter ‘I’m going to post this to the internet ‘ and she said ‘Sure dad’....is one thing.

But if he didn’t tell her, and her friends tell her what they saw on the internet.....I’m concerned for the girl’s dignity being compromised a second time.

Most of us know the liberties taken at an airport....
...would it not have been just as helpful to only take his video to the head of that airport and complain.

Setup - parents didn’t take responsibility for the suitcase. Parents insisted the girl be embarrassed in public. Dad’s a jerk.

The father “felt like he was watching his little girl get assaulted”?

Well; he definitely was.

I despise the TSA people! The only respectful ones I’ve run into are in Knoxville. LAX agents appear every shift, emerging from the gates of hell. The nastiest was at PIE — St. Pete/Clearwater.

Hope a new president will consult with Israel, train people in appropriate profiling, and make air travel almost tolerable again.

I see; I don’t believe “just doing your job” is any more of a defense today than it was in Nuremberg. Here in NJ our public employees are in open warfare with the taxpayers, and their sense of entitlement to our wages for their ridiculous salaries, benefits, and retirement packages is enraging. I have voted against every school budget and tax increase when offered the chance because I know spending more isn’t making the schools/town any better, cleaner, etc.

They have become an incestuous caste apart (the only upper middle class in many areas here as their costs have driven many employers away - and they take their jobs with them); many teachers marry other teachers or cops (cops call them “holster-sniffers”), and government workers tend to have more children than others because they alone have solid job security for life after a couple of years on the job. You can’t even speak to them because they are so out of touch; contributing a small amount towards their health insurance while most of us already pay a lot more than that (and pay for the balance of theirs on top of that) drives them into a frenzy.

15 years of this nonsense is enough. We have to push back against them.

From your keyboard to Trump's ears.

There is also a Wright house in Frankfort, Ky that he built probably as a fast payday. It sold for 70k back in the 90s and didn’t make the paper till after it sold. I would have tried to buy it myself but knowledge is power and I didn’t have the knowledge. I drove by it and it didn’t really look like a Wright house. I no longer fly either and I am a private pilot.

Alright, I just watched this video and it looked like a good, standard patdown looking for a small item, such as a razor blade or a small knife blade ir drugs. If searchers overlooked various hiding areas such as under the breasts or crotch, how soon before that vulnerability gets exploited? If complete searches are not carried out, how soon before the bastards who put bomb vests on Down’s Syndrome sufferers spot the vulnerability?

The slow motions segments are pure exploitation by the filmmaker designed to make it look like the TSA agent was taking her time. His accusation of constant groping of the buttocks cannot be determined from the video since the agent’s hands were behind the girl.

Again, this is a competent search. We really need stop the mass knee jerk contact paranoia that happens too often on FR. Get real, people, this is idiot.

This, idiot, is NOT a competent search!

I sincerely believe that you are a stinking Muslim plant on this honorable website!

Get on your knees and pray to Allah, the magnificent!

Stick in your White Hut basement and continue selecting posts on the internet to convolute.
