My daughters are 10 and 13. We are flying to Orlando in December.
They will both wear sanitary pads and I’m seriously considering hijabs for all of us.
Our gov’t should never expose them to the possibility of being pawed in any fashion by an “official” for the “priviledge” of flying. obama should be asked by a reporter (with full detail of what occurs to these children) how he would “feel” if this happened to his daughter(s). As a father, he should be ashamed. (I know, I know, it’s obama - he doesn’t understand shame.)
Your post just shows how far we have sunk as a nation.
An American mother has to resort to extreme measures to protect her daughters’ virtue from United States government agents.
We have failed you. And for that, I am sorry. If we don’t move to correct this now, your grandchildren and mine will grow up in an Orwellian nightmare.
I have a feeling you’ll be reconsidering that trip between now and then — at least by air — but, if not, have a good trip! We are on permanent self-imposed no-fly status (commercial).
Surely there has to be a scripture we can stand on to not being groped. It is so wrong for you to even consider impersonating a cult just to get protect your daughters. This may backfire sometime in the future.
Maybe it's time for all of us to slow down, not try to get someplace ASAP. Maybe we should travel like they did in the fifties. Maybe it's time to stop and smell the roses, visit God's country by car.
