TSA strip searches young boy.
ok...I just got really upset with this video.
Sarcasm may not be the right word though.
The fact is main stream America has chosen a security State.
All the assumptions of normalcy I find appalling.
The fact that Police at the municipal level have wide discretionary powers and a code book so big they can’t stuff it into the back of a squad car appalls me.
The fact that municipal judges are otherwise unemployed lawyers appalls me. The fact that the prosecutors are otherwise unemployed lawyers who play golf with judges and defense attorneys appalls me.
The fact that this country has more cops per capita than any first tier western country than Italy appalls me.
The fact that we have more people in Jail than any first world country appalls me.
So sarcasm? No. Reality. Law and Order conservatives built this mess.
great idea!
Ditto — I’m a survivor of sexual abuse. I don’t even want to think about the risks I would take in trying to fly. I’m doing fine in my daily life, but seeing it happen in front of my eyes? I’m getting sick just reading the articles. I’d end up in jail if I went into the airport and saw this going on. There is no way I could witness this and NOT say or do SOMETHING to atop it - especially if it were a child.
How can the people who work for TSA even GO to work everyday? I’d imagine more than a few of them are going to end up with mental issues as well...
I understand the sensitivity this issue cause, but the title suggests that the kid was completely naked. Not true and misleading. He had his pants on. Why they took his shirt off I don’t know, but unless I missed something, he was dressed with pants the whole time.
I agree. We [Conservatives] have no one to blame but themselves.
Same as liberals do blame Bush for everything.
Here's a clue: Obama is in power . So it, Obama is ultimately responsible for it's TSA molesting children and taking away our freedom and rights. This is an impeachable offense. The House must impeach Obama for this and other crimes. Clinton got away with burning 100 people at Waco , the media blaming it on the victims and Reno getting the blame. Now Napolitano getting most of the blame when all of them should be blamed mainly Obama , not Bush get it yet?
Bush is not in power , got that yet?
And another thing... our highways and bridges are overtaxed already, in disrepair (since fake stimulus money did nothing about that), etc. How much more of a burden can our roads take?
I-10 through much of AZ is worse than any 3rd world highway I’ve ever been on. Flying tires, overcrowded loads of illegals, narrow and insufficient lanes, no escape lane, no divider, so on.
And what will prevent the TSA from hiring 10,000 more workers to include those riders for the new post-election thug treatment?
The TSA does what it does to keep us SAFE.
um... I was pointing out that Americans will accept any amount of inconvenience and tyranny to be kept safe.
Hello...
You guys are really fired up tonight!!!
Reminds me of Hitler’s reign....first order was to dehumanize the Jewish people. It worked. If we stand for this abuse we’ll become desensitized to it as well...then on to the next “control” of the populace.
I am shocked that no Menatl health , psychological or the social Work national groups (NASW) are not out there screaming about the groping being upsetting to children but also to people who have been abused or raped?
WTH is going on here that this isn’t stopped immediately!!
And....save to hd....
Sigh,
Lets try this real slow...
1.Bush built TSA with the approval of most conservatives. Conservatives need to accept responsibility for this and use it to shape future decisions. BECAUSE we have a government that will swing from conservative management to liberal management every decade or so. BUT the power you give to the government does not easily go away. So don’t empower the government to do much more than count beavers in New York State. I can’t conceive of how anybody could get hurt doing that.
This is my last shot at being conciliatory with you. If you don’t get it now you just won’t.
That demotivation poster is hilarious.
Well tat list of TSA criminal activity makes one real safe in the ol’friendly skys. So in other words...before you fly get patted down by criminals!
I often wondered how the Nazis convinced so many Germans to become Gestapo. Now I know. The TSA training manual must have been written by Adolf Eichmann.
We can only hope that in January the new Congress begins mass arrests of these government goons and perverts. It certainly won’t happen with the lame ducks and Obama.
The TSA needs to be dissolved and done away with. We are Americans not criminals. The criminals are the people in TSA uniforms.
Sigh...
Maybe, but did you hear of this stuff happening when he was in office? I didn’t!
