TSA agents make fun of cavity searches for children

[Melensdad]

A manager for the TSA has some explaining to do. Perhaps its nothing more than a sick joke but honestly the TSA has become pretty intrusive and pilots and travelers alike are beginning to complain.

The TSA didn't create this graphic, but one of their managers proudly displays it for passengers to see at this airport. Our liberty being raped is just a joke to them. The full body scanners have an alternative, but its pretty clear that the opt out procedure is being made intentionally unpleasant for one simply purpose, to herd people through the full body scanners.

. . .Since the introduction of airport scanners, there have been countless complaints regarding privacy issues.

Earlier this year, a TSA employee in Miami was arrested after he physically assaulted a co-worker who had joked about the size of his penis.

In March, a TSA worker who conducted so-called patdowns was charged with multiple child sex crimes targeting an underage girl. “The bust outraged privacy and passenger advocates who say it justifies their fears about Logan International Airport’s full-body scanner,” the Boston Herald reported.
. . .
As the neocon Jeffrey Goldberg wrote in late October, the TSA considers the backscatter scanners and the “opt-out” manual search comical. Goldberg asked a TSA officer if the new Department of Homeland Security guidelines include a cavity search. “No way. You think Congress would allow that?” the TSA employee responded.

In addition, the Atlantic’s Goldberg was told by the TSA agent directly that pat downs were made increasingly invasive not for any genuine security reason, but to make the experience so uncomfortable for the traveler that they would prefer to use the body scanner, despite the fact that scientists at Columbia University and the Inter-Agency Committee on Radiation Safety, along with other scientific bodies, have all warned that the devices increase the risk of developing cancer. . .

This is an abomination of our rights.

We need to all grow a pair and properly profile the real potential criminals.

Old people and children are no threat. Unless they are travelling with some extreme Muslim types or fit the profile of true terrorists.

We need to remove the uber-pc people from the equation. This is a disgrace.

I won't fly commercial until this is not the policy any more.

The first TSA agent who would touch me or my wife would wake up from their coma in a hospital. So, I just won't go there any more...

These pieces of shit are just doing the bidding of the pieces of shit who run the organization, and are appointed by the arrogant bastards who gave us health care, a trillion dollar debt, cap & tax, etc, etc, etc. Just more spitting in the face of the American people. I got $100 that says they would not even dream of patting down a Muslim woman in a burka or some towel head in his turban. Non citizens are treated better than American citizens because the administration and their minions fear the camel jockeys.

Ahhhhhhh! There, I feel better getting that out.

Glad I'm not the only one who thinks like that! I was so enraged the day my 2 year old nephew's stuffed elephant was wanded at the airport I could have punched out the first person who told me to take off my shoes!
