TSA Takes a Tough Stance Against Breast Milk
Breitbart California ^ | July 13, 2014 | Robert Wilde

Posted on 07/14/2014 11:55:50 AM PDT by Tolerance Sucks Rocks

The working mom of a seven-month-old son alleges that she was detained for an hour by TSA officials at San Diego’s Lindbergh Field as they meticulously scrutinized the bags of breast milk she was carrying. The heavy scrutiny on a working mom’s breast milk and, as Breitbart News has reported, the lapses of scrutiny on illegal aliens who have been able to fly on commercial airlines without identification is mindboggling.

ABC10 News reported that Nicole Moberg, a sales director for a medical company, travels extensively on her job, so she comes prepared with pre-pumped breast milk. She separates the milk into individual plastic bag servings and then puts these into larger, one-gallon Ziploc bags. Moberg says that typically security agents check the large bags, determine their content, then let her on her way.

This time, however, the TSA officials made her take all the approximately 50 individual baggies out and examined each one. She recounted the experience: "It's a little swatch, and they attach it to a handle, and they kind of swish it over the bag and a little over the milk, and they run it through a machine, and they let me go most of the time," Moberg said. "This time… they checked every single bag."

Good thing they were unionized so they’d be more professional.

The TSA is everybody, favorite Royal Pain in the Arse, tis true, but this time, they may have a point. One could easily smuggle some liquid explosive in one of these bags. Too bad there is no way to give the Moms that will ‘certify’ the contents as what they are said to be, mother milk, nothing more. I’m told the children really do benefit from the concentrated nutrition in their early years.

Well the only way to solve that problem is to have mothers pop those twin babies out in public even if a liberal whines.

It will be part of TSA’s “Enhanced Groping” program.

They’ll just sqeeze them dry.....

I look forward to getting the heck out of this country during the coming elections..

Of course, we’ll be cruising thru a hotbed of Asian conflicts, but hey, at least we will escape ProgressiveCorruptionism for a bit, albeit to commie countries..

Life is a carpshoot!

lee, we got 10 billion freaking people piped into the US via Mexico and we need to be concerned that “terrorists” are going to use breast milk?

I worry more about the dead coming back to life than I do about ME “terrorists”. We have enough terrorists inside our borders (Govt and illegals).

TSA agents are morons. Their procedures are moronic. Limit you to an ounce portion of liquid? So ten associates board a plane, each one carrying an ounce of liquid that can be mixed onboard the plane to produce whatever. They think terrorists haven’t thought of doing that? Instead, they terrorize moms who breast-feed their babies, in order to justify having their “jobs”.

That assumes that the agents you get can read.

Pffft....who needs all that 'equal protection' nonsense.
