So now the TSA agent is a pedophile? You guys are retarded. Read the youtube comments...the father was mad so he ripped the kids shirt off. I guess he must be a pedophile too?

From the youtube comments:

This was taken TOTALLY out of context. I was there and witnesseed the ENTIRE incident - from BEFORE the video starts. The young boy was selected because of his bulky sweatshirt. The FATHER, NOT TSA yanked off his sweatshirt and t-shirt, while the third party was filming, a set-up all the way. The young man was NOT required to remove any clothing.

Says an anonymous youtube commenter. Even if he is right, patting down 7 year olds is still disgusting and unnecessary. Clothes on or not.

But the TSA agent did rub all over his waist, and looks like he rubbed the inseam up to the crotch. Anyone that supports this BS, especially on children, needs to burn in hell.
 
It took them going THIS far for you to go WTF?

Yes. I have only flown twice in my life so this doesn't affect me. I try not to get caught up in debating things that I have no experience with. Plus people always complain about the TSA, the government, the airlines...much easier just to ignore them. But now the government is condoning pedophilia in the name of not insulting potential terrorists. If you want to take naked pics of me or touch my junk, I don't care. Touch my kid and we're going to be fighting.

When my son was 3 he needed stitches. I was standing right beside the doctor ready to lay him out if he messed up and hurt my son and I am not a violent person. I can only imagine what I would do if some glorified meter maid tried touching my son or tried taking his clothes off. I can promise that I would make the news.

Good. We need to do whatever it takes to take down the TSA. Fire everyone and hire consultants from Israel to do our security. TSA = fail.

At least in the case of the doctor, I doubt he would have intentionally tried to hurt your child but I still understand the desire to respond regardless of intention.

That TSA agent didn't "slip" and accidently start stripping the 7 year old kid though. Those two situations are miles apart and personally I think the parents should be jailed for allowing that to happen to their child. That is pure negligence by every definition.

Oh thank God. I am really glad that the TSA is protecting us from 7 year old kids with "bulky sweatshirts". Wooh, glad they prevented that potential crisis.

Right. My point was that a parent has certain instincts to protect their children. If they don't protect them...then I don't know.

There would be no way to jail a parent for allowing a government official to do his job. That official and the official's boss that ordered him to do that should be stuck in prison.

All we need is one local police department to grow some balls and arrest one of these people.

And risk their Federal monies? I doubt it.

What its going to take are a few people beating the shit out of those assholes for doing those types of things to their children. When a high probability of an asswhooping come with a $12/hour job, you quickly find out that those people don't feel the $12/hour worth it.

We are way to far to the "sheeple" side to simply refuse to do business with the airlines until the loss of revenue (both private and public via tax revenue) forces them to change it. I am not a big fan of violence but you mess with my children and that is what you will get BUT I am also willing to face the consequences of my actions.
 
Terrorists could never hide anything on a child, if children were not searched. The child would always understand all items on them and their luggage, and say nothing until the search when they would alert authorities to the threat, who would arrest the terrorist who tried to use the child.
For the greater good! Terrorists! Non-organic fruits and vegetables!!!! Think of the children!!!!!one11!
 
Fucks sake. Will you guys do something about this or stop whining.

I've had to hide every American on my facebook page already about this.

You know your all going to make a fuss until its you, then you'll buckle down and do what you're told.

Whinging on a forum(or my fucking facebook page) is not going to change this.

You want to see some real shit go down in the US, let the .gov turn off facebook for a few days. We might allow you to strip search/molest our wives and children but if you fuck with our facebook you have gone way to damned far!
 
When I heard strip searched I figured he was stripped as in naked. It looks like he took off his shirt, got patted down and then the guy who searched him patted him on the head and then he was off.

There's a lot of problems with the TSA situation but let's describe what happened accurately.

This. I was outraged when I heard strip search. Now that I took the 10 seconds to watch the video, who cares?
