Barack Obama says it’s OK so just shut up and take your groping little boy
The TSA is now strip searching little boys.
Is there anyone else in America outraged by this?
From the video:
Lets get the facts straight first. Before the video started the boy went through a metal detector and didn’t set it off but was selected for a pat down. The boy was shy so the TSA couldn’t complete the full pat on the young boy. The father tried several times to just hold the boys arms out for the TSA agent but i guess it didn’t end up being enough for the guy. I was about 30 ft away so i couldn’t hear their conversation if there was any. The enraged father pulled his son shirt off and gave it to the TSA agent to search, thats when this video begins.
Just last week TSA administrator John Pistole told a Senate committee that the Transportation Security Administration that children under 12 would not be subject to enhanced pat downs.
Yahoo reported:
Pistole announced there would be some method of screening in place that allows air crews to move quickly through checkpoints. Children under age 12 are not subject to enhanced pat downs.
But he didn’t say anything about strip searching children.

How did that father not get medieval on those pr*cks? I don’t think I would have been able to control myself in that situation.

This psychological and physical rape of America MUST STOP NOW!!!!
The power-hungry control freaks of the regime must be stopped in their tracks. ENOUGH!
Robert commented:
The government is doing all of this so that they can remain “politically correct”. Rather than profile and also have officials confront the ideological support within islam for terrorist attacks, the government would instead violate our Constitutional rights against unreasonable search.
In yet another circumstance the federal government is the greatest threat to freedom and prime violator of the Constitution.

Well, tourism employment was looking up in September so they had to do something to stop the evil capitalists. Not to mention, they need to get that 1 in 5 Americans have psychological problems up to support the American Psychological Association (APA), which has little professionalism but lots and lots of progressive nut cases as members.

Is a concerted effort on the part of Obama and his minions to stop people from flying, drive the airlines under and use it as an excuse to nationalize them, a la Hitler.

It would appear to be just that, also allowing the Reich, er, Regime to push its rail programs. All in an effort to control just where Americans go and how they get there. Don’t forget Ray The Hood and his plan to force people out of their cars and presumably into their choo-choo trains and light rail systemsm both black holes for taxpayer dollars.
Say “Sieg Heil” to the nice people. Nazi bastards.

I am betting the TSA agents are as disgusted as the rest of us about this crap but are doing what they are ordered to do by the powers that be.
Don’t go after the guys in the blue shirt. go after their PC higher ups who are enacting policies which force them in to these unfortunate circumstances.
And for the record, this shyte has got to stop, NOW!!! Search the people who are in the group most likely to be a threat and this pc crap be damned.

Redwine commented:
Please read “The degradation must stop” by Lee DeCovnick in American Thinker (http://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2010/11/the_degradation_must_stop.html):
…
“Make no mistake, these direct physical assaults on American citizens flow directly from Obama’s increasingly dysfunctional narcissism. This carefully crafted (post election) lab experiment has a dual purpose. American air travelers, primarily white and upper middle class, are targeted by the Soros/Obama thugocracy for collective punishment stemming from their overwhelming rejection of his socialist redistributive policies in the midterm elections. The second part of this Orwellian test is to determine exactly how far Americans are willing to surrender their personal freedoms and privacy in name of safety and security.
Obama and his ideological stooges (those shadow government czars) are in a desperate panic to start cooking us frogs before we jump out of the pot, turn off the stove and restore order to the kitchen. We are in a deadly serious race for our freedoms and our country. They have a two-year head start. We must continue to roll back this madness, and to excise the people who are willing to compromise our Constitutional freedoms.”
Just_Saying commented:
As has been said, they’ll try to nationalize the airlines after they go under because people won’t put up with it. And where are our reps? On military or charter planes that don’t require this foolishness.
No more flying (except on regional airlines, which haven’t yet added this TSA stuff). Sorry, America. I have no clout, but will stand with others against this outrage!!

Outrageous!! I want to know the date this video was taken. Also, note that the description says the dad took off the kids’ shirt. Everyone who flies needs to be ready to take videos like this. When will we see a woman in a hijab frisked? Never.
Andreas K. commented:
Watch how three TSA goons face the father in the beginning. Three against one. And then there are like 10 to 15 TSA agents appearing in the scene doing their stuff, wandering around. In fact I see more TSA than passengers.
LadyImpactOhio, Hitler never nationalized the German airlines. There was only Lufthansa anyway, and in WW2 they could only maintain flights to neutral countries. They ceased operation when Germany was defeated and came back a few years later.
Nance commented:
Every elected official and their families should be put through the TSA new search procedures. Not flying commercial? Sorry, same deal. Once am aircraft is in the air, it’s a potential missile. No excuse for you and yours either, Barry.

Nance:
While I completely understand this “make ‘em suffer too” sentiment, it’s just as moronic from a security standpoint as harassing this child was. Not long after 9/11, Al Gore took a flight and put on this big show going through an extended search and patdown in some attempt to how ‘necessary’ random screenings of passengers were, as opposed to something effective like profiling.
Al and Barry may be threats to the nation, but they’re certainly not a threat to an airborne plane. It was pure theater then, just as it is now.

Now I could have SWORN that on Wednesday last -John Pistole testified to Congress that children under 12 were EXEMPT. That sure as hell does not look EXEMPT to me! Liar!
RE the father just taking his son’s shirt off, I’m OK with that. Obviously the TSA goons know little or nothing about how to handle children. That dad probably avoided far worse for his son, on the order of the manhandling that poor hysterical little girl endured. THAT was a practically a rape of the child. This little boy & his dad are much more of an F-you,

Enraged!? You will be more angry by the end of the year. These stories continue to pile up and will continue.
Time to mount an offense. The TSA cannot be directly refused without punishment.
Are there unknown laws on the books the TSA cannot circumvent?
Can we march on the Airports?
We can keep the cell phone cameras rolling, for now.
We can publicize every humiliating TSA occurrence.
I, for one, would just love to see the preferential treatment certain lawmakers receive from TSA screeners. Does anyone think Mccaskill, Carnahan, Waters, or Rangell will be subjected to the same humiliating treatment as the american public at large? If it could be caught on cell cam, get it.
crosspatch commented:
Does this mean that if my neighbor is suspected of dealing drugs, the cops have to search every house in the neighborhood equally?
crosspatch commented:
Using TSA logic, every house in America would be subject to random search for illegal activity.
What is TSA’s probable cause for searching someone like that?
This administration is absolutely insane. They are enabling exactly the sort of response that the terrorists are trying to elicit.
Jud Mac commented:
So let me get this straight, we hammer “do not let people touch you on your private parts” into our kids’ heads but let this angry looking TSA agent do it while I’m standing there. Enough!
apodoca commented:
They’re trying to be outrageous to force us into the scans even though those are potentially dangerous. Obama’s trying to force us to stop flying to put the airline industry out of work. It’s part of his plan to crash the American economy. The solution is to revolt against both gropes and naked pix.
Vrajavala commented:
Interestingly, in Michael Savage’s book, which came out prior to all this, He cited a couple, Nob and Leona Thomas, taking their 4 yr old crippled son, Ryan, to Disneyland. The kid’s metal leg braces set off the alarm, so they forced the kid yo take off the braces and walk through the metal detector. TSA wouldn’t let the parents help the kid who was crying and really can’t walk too well. .p 282 “trickle up Poverty”

TSA, another broken Federal institution…It’s clear that Washington can’t get anything right…Millions of illegals pour across the border. Criminals control large parts of our major cities.

If Obama wanted this madness to stop he could.

Bill Mitchell commented:
Well, the most damning in all this is that it really does no good. Any self-respecting terrorist is gonna give themselves a C4 suppository and no pat down will detect that. Since their argument this is all necessary to protect us and yet is utterly ineffective, the next logical step would be full body cavity searches.
A normal x-ray machine that shows bones and any solid objects would give less radiation (since it is spread over the whole body) and detect any “butt” or “breast” bombs. No patdowns required and no porn-scanners.
It is so damned easy.
P.S., Where the hell is the CLU in all this? If Bush were POTUS they would be marching in the streets.
Bill Mitchell commented:
The fact you aren’t allowed to smoke a cigarette in the terminal after your pat-down really makes the whole experience unsatisfying
I would be curious to see a study of how many shapely 22 year old females are chosen for pat-down vs 400 lb 55 year old women?
Granny commented:
Not entirely so easy Bill Mitchell. State and Federal laws require that you be trained (takes a minimum of two years), certified and licensed in order to operate an X-ray machine. TSA has escaped this only because there is no law covering the full body scanners and they have not yet been classified as a medical device.
bigL commented:
I calif I read that the Police had this van tha could drive dn the street and measure the heat signature of each house. IT may have bee used in otherareas too. The Police were lookig for Meth labs, inside pot farms.
But the courts said NO due to iirc no probable case. Maybe something else too.
So wouldn’t the X-ray at airport also be no probable cause as well?
Gregory of Yardale commented:
The TSA is being somewhat disingenuous when they claim that the pat-down (grope) is an alternative to the scanner. That’s not true. If you go through the scanner and it goes off, you get the grope. That’s what happened to my 14 year old son, yesterday. He was wearing a belt that made the scanner go off. So, a TSA agent took off my son’s belt and proceeded to give him a feel around his waist and groin.
Viv commented:
Not sure if this has been mentioned before but I haven’t read or heard anything of what the gay, lesbian and transgender groups think of this. Do gay men want men groping them? After all a male cannot pat down a woman or vice versa. Do lesbians want a woman touching their private parts? My son is a gay man, he is horrified at the thought of a strange man groping him.
Strange silence from these normally voiciferous groups.
archer52 commented:
Here is the latest on this from my website.
http://truthandcommonsense.com/2010/11/21/jumping-back-into-the-tsa-issue-again-for-the-third-time-they-need-to-get-a-grip-and-not-on-three-year-olds/
I’ve commented on this from a constitutional/police power perspective several times before on my site. I’m actually pretty familiar with the whole issue of detainment/reasonable suspicion etc since I plied my trade as a detective for nearly twenty years.
Here’s a few points to remember.
1- They can search you at the airport and it is NOT a fourth amendment violation (at least not now). That is settled law with a long, long record of supporting case laws.
2- That said, common sense HAS to prevail as the TSA agents do their thing. Bombs or threats do not come in the form of three year old children. They don’t, and they never will.
3-The TSA was doomed from the outset because it was cobbled together with parts from special interest groups, affirmative action, unions, liberals, political correctness, etc. It will never work. As I told a buddy, it would be like asking from someone to build you a car and they design and build a boat- because THEY wanted a boat. Now, you could put wheels on the boat, but it is still a boat and will always be one. Simple. To get proper security in place, the feds would have to gut the whole thing out.
4. The TSA was never about real security. If it were, it would have been designed by the Israelis. It is about making busy work for the feds so you think you are safe. That way you’ll give up more of your freedoms willingly and more of your tax money- willingly or not.
5. Any good cop stationed at the airport has to be very careful not to get caught up in the madness infecting the TSA. What we are seeing is a power play- them vs us. Good cops know when to get scarce and this would be a good time. As I say in my latest posts, detaining a citizen based on the fact they changed their mind and decided not to fly is dangerously close to a lawsuit and the loss of your job. And here is a good point to remember. The TSA agent that orders you to violate a person’s civil rights will NOT get fired or sued, but you will. If I were stationed there (obviously after I suffered a severe blow to my brain and was brain damaged) and the TSA agent called me over to detain someone, I’d ask this one question- “What did they do?” If the answer was anything less than a crime, I would wave them on and apologize. “You have a nice day and drive safely.”
Idiots.
Bill commented:
When will the soldiers (TSA) quit assaulting their fellow citizens?
Granny commented:
archer 52, I’m sure you are aware that congressmen, the ACLU (compiling complaints) and even HSA itself say that the current TSA procedures ARE a violation of the Fourth Amendment but that they are “necessary anyway.”
the_moll commented:
Ok, enough is enough. What’s next? What can peaceful, law abiding, citizens do to stop this?
southernsue commented:
if the tsa agents don’t like what they are doing why don’t they revolt against it? we are not sheepal that we go along with what whatever. we are strong people and should stand up against this.
watching this video, along with the one where they search the three year old, enrages me. we teach or kids to not go near strangers and here we have strangers touching them in their private parts. unbelievable. grab your kids and run the other way. if they try to stop you yell out see you in court, but your not going to molest my child,.

Dave commented:
I am a frequent flier (1,000,000 plus miles since 9/11) and I’ve been increasingly frustrated and then infuriated by airport security–both the private and then the Thousands Standing Around.
I had occasion last year to argue with a group of TSAs who ‘randomly’ selected me for extra screening and as a result of my arguing they were going page-by-page through my papers, making me turn on my iPad and my laptop and, of course, doing a detailed search of my person. It got heated and I was saying how ridiculous and wasteful it was searching a 48 year old American, former Marine, father of 8 from Utah and one of the TSAs said “you think you could do better? You think you can pick a terrorist out of group?” Of course I said that I could absolutely do better than them because I would not waste time searching little old ladies, 5 year old children and 48 year old American, former Marine, fathers of 8 from Utah. The TSA agent screeched (really there is no other way to describe it) “WHAT PROFILING? YOU’RE TALKING ABOUT PROFILING AND THAT IS UNCONSTITUTIONAL!” I was stunned by the statement but responded that she obviously hadn’t read the Constitution if she thought that.
As we kept arguing we attracted a crowd including the police and it was getting more and more heated. It was one of those times when I wished I could just shut my mouth, but I couldn’t. All of a sudden this little old guy, about 80, stepped up behind me and said “if you just wore a robe and turban they’d let you right through.” Talk about screeching, there were repeated screeches from the TSAs of “that’s NOT TRUE.” but it served to break the ice and I was able to shut my mouth, gather my stuff and make my escape. Interestingly enough, I’ve now been ‘randomly’ selected for search 8 of the last 9 times vie flown.
Sturgen commented:
I’m thinking that if they want to ‘gang up’ and bully the Father of a child into giving up that child’s rights, we also have the right to ‘gang up’ and get them the Hell out of the airports!
There is strength in numbers and we need to find a way to use that for our good of America and to push the TSA out of airports. Even if that means physically doing so. Am I inciting violence? No. More like an eviction.
Political Lobotomy commented:
This is unbelievable! I’m totally convinced this Administration is out to destroy commerce by keeping us from traveling and moving around. America spends money when moving around, and these Marxist are hell bent on making change.

Get that fraud out of the white house and this will stop! It’s all about money folks! Churnoff Soros and members are going to make millions off those machines plus give cancer to many many people. They have already recieved millions of our money buying these machines. Has any one heard yet how much we are paying for each one of the machines? It’s going to make us real angry.

Dave, 8 out of 9 isn’t “random” by any scientific definition of “random” I’ve ever heard. I suspect you’ve been placed on a watch list. Might want to consult a lawyer about your rights. You might also consider shipping every last thing you want to bring with you overnight FedEX or some such rather than letting them rifle through it.

In that fathers mind was that to protect his son he had to stay in control because he would of been forcefully taken away from his son and that would had harmed his son more.

Faye commented:
#51, Dave, I think the little ole man has a point. Maybe the business I talked about on an earlier thread should include robes and turbans for men and burkas for ladies. Have a “rent a burka” shop off airport land and return in your robe or burka at you destination.
However this is unconstitutional, which seems to be the socialist MO.
I wonder why the libtards are not screaming their heads off like they did about Bush’s Patriot Act. I glibly suggested that it’s because the socialists are all closet groper, exhibitionist and voyeurs. Then Gloria Allred said that she enjoyed her public groping. Proved my glib remake, the socialists are perverts and they are still in control of this nation.
The first shot of this new revolution was fired at the voting booth,lets continue the revolution till all of the Rino’s are voted out in the primaries and all the socialist dems are voted out in the general. Make sure our votes to get them out and return this nation to the sanity of a constitutional republic is so overwhelming that it negates the grave yard voters.
Jesse Jackson commented:
We need the home addresses of those punk government employees. It’s time to stop this!
Faye commented:
I also wonder what the “other hand” is doing while we are watching what this “hand” with outrage. Usually this socialist regime is busy doing more unconstitutional things while we are looking the other way.
CrackerMike commented:
RE: #9, Kevin. It makes no difference if the TSA people are disgusted by the actions they are ordered to, and do, carry out. That’s the old Nurrenburg defense from 1946 used by lower level Nazi’s to justify their criminal actions. “I vus yust following ze orders”. This is all about humiliating the American People. Informing them in no uncertain terms that they are considered sheep, chattel and WILL do as they are damn well TOLD to do by their betters. King Louis 16th did the same thing until he was gullioteened! This may end in the death of a screener or one of the citizens they assault under Government orders.
Helen commented:
If our combat troops can be prosecuted for obeying the unlawful orders of a superior, then so can TSA agents.
Obeying orders is no excuse in combat.
Our troops are not allowed to body search random civilians at check points in Afghanistan, but their families are being searched at this very moment.
Dave-O commented:
If anything remotely like this was tried during the GWB administration, the ACLU would be in full litigation mode, the MSNBC people would be in full froth, the students would be rioting in the streets, the airports would be burning by now, the newspapers would be calling for his impeachment over 4th Amendment violations, and Congress would be holding hearings non-stop.
But Urkel gets a pass.

At which point you would have been arrested for resisting a Federal Officer and your child removed from your custody, likely to be turned over to Social Services – the usual MO in this kind of case. Worse, if you actually hit the SOB molesting your child, the penalty is EIGHT YEARS IN JAIL.
Kevin commented:
@CrackerMike- You’re stretching it a little bit there I think. To equate the TSA screeners to the Nazi SS is a bit much. I have a very close friend in Oregon who is a TSA agent and he tells me that they are as disgusted by what is going on as anyone but they can either do what they are mandated to do by policy or lose their jobs. And especially in Oregon, losing a decent paying job like that would not be a good thing. Oregon has ~12% unemployment, close to 20% in some counties.
he tells me that, at least at PDX, they try to be as discreet and respectful as they can, and they ALL think it’s a joke to pat down a young child.
IL.Vicki commented:
Dave #51 I stopped flying when that’s exactly what TSA did to me. 4 muslim men were yelling, speaking in a foreign language, acting drunk and they were allowed to walk on the plane. I was right behind them scared and TSA pulled me out of line for a search. I opened my mouth too saying, ” You’ve got to be kidding! You pull me out of line and you don’t stop them???” She snotted back to me, ” WE don’t profile!!” Our plane was delayed because they could’nt get those men to calm down on the plane…..flight attendants & the pilots all come over and talked to the 4 men…..and TSA pulled me out of line to pat down… idiots! So I stopped flying.

Notice the bit about a gentleman stripping off his pants and shirt and them insisting he put his clothes back on so that they could grope him, even though in his skivvies it was perfectly obvious that there was nothing to feel. This is about HUMILIATION and POWER. Nothing whatever to do with SAFETY.

Bull! It is NOT a joke. Violating a child like that completely undermines all other efforts we make to keep children safe from sexual assault. And for some children – like the little screaming girl – that is a memory that will mark that child for life.
Do we REALLY want to be teaching our children that somebody in blue gloves can walk up to them anytime and physically search them without a warrant? Because if you think it is going to stop at the airports you are an utter fool. Next thing you know our children will be being run through scanners and/or physically searched when they enter the schoolhouse doors each day!
Rock commented:
As noted earlier by #21 watch the video and count the number of officers who wander into the area, they know people are getting tired of this b/s and flood the area to protect their own, the fear and anguish the child is suffering is of no concern here.
Also agree Obama could stop this overnight. His children are off limits to the press, but ours must be terrorized any time they travel. I have written all my representatives, 10 days is the normal turn around on replies. If this nonsense is not turn around soon we must assumed this government is no longer responsive to the electorate and is in fact compromised by Socialist infiltrators.
We have seen our Manchurian Candidate, I’m at the point where a 7 Day’s in May option seems more tolerable. Obama has set the stage when he opted to tell the Hispanic voters to vote to punish the enemy (Republicans and Conservatives). Not the language one would expect from a President of a free populace.
Listen up commented:
This has little to do with security, it is all about control…control of the people. It is by design that children are selected because they want to teach them early that the state is in control of their lives at every turn. This is the Obama change for the American people. Obama wants to pay back all the white, non muslim, anti marxist populace, teaching them a lesson. Do you dare to disagree with his dream?, (our nightmare). Had enough yet America? This is only the beginning unless Americans move fast to take back the nation of their fathers fathers. Nov. was a start but more has to be done.

“Payback is a b*tch, isn’t it America,” says Obama in his sick little mind.

I’m inclined to spend my next vacation in the US. Let my beard grow out, run around in a robe and a turban, fly a few times, speak with a heavy foreign accent and greet the TSA people with “as-salāmu ʿalaikum” and watch if they pull me out.
I’m am almost 100% sure that I wouldn’t get pulled out even just once.
Joanne commented:
Obama is just pointing out that not even your children are safe – he’ll have them stripped and photographed naked until he forces Americans to blow a fuse, and then his militant minions will move in and show you where hell on earth is located.
Joanne commented:
Obama is a terrorist!!!!!!!

There’s no way in hell I’d let my kid get searched like that. I’ll go to prison, I don’t care.

Here we see the open disrespect of the American people by the thugs that some how got control of the White House. I remember the caterwaling that arose because it was learned that we listened in on phone calls from suspected terrorist over seas to some one in this country. Oh the crying and moaning about the constitution and that GWB was out to destroy American freedom. Now full body rub downs are for our own good and MUST be tolerated. They tell us now what we can eat and what we can’t, they tell us we can’t smoke in our own homes, they tell us that belief in the LORD must be kept to our selves and no open devotion will be allowed, nor any statue or written words extolling the virtues of the LORD can be allowed BECAUSE IT MAY OFFEND. Here we have people being searched on an every tenth system. Well Mohammad is #9 and he skates, your daughter is #10 and they abuse her, does any of this make any sense at all, if continue to allow this we are lost. I ask again, can we afford two more years of this cretinous cadre that has us all in servitude to their every whim? Can we?

Not so sure about terrorists but one of the favorite places for smuggling narcotics is in the baby’s diaper.

ENOUGH IS ENOUGH….THIS IS NOT….I REPEAT NOT BEING POLITICALLY CORRECT….AS ISLAMIC WOMEN WEARING BURQA’S ARE NOT..AGAIN NOT SUBJECT TO PAT DOWNS AS IT IS AGAINST THEIR RELIGION TO HAVE ANOTHER MAN TOUCH THEM….
SO EXPLAIN TO ME IF YOU ARE LIVING IN OUR NATION YOU ARE NOT SUBJECT TO OUR LAWS WE DID NOT BOMB OURSELVES AND YET WE ARE BEING CONTINUOUSLY SUBJECTED TO DIFFERENT FORMS OF HUMILIATION, EMOTIONAL AND PSYCHOLOGICAL RAPE, DISTRESS AND NOW WE ARE DOING IT TO OUR CHILDREN .
OF COURSE MEMBERS OF THE HOUSE AND SENATE ARE GOING TO SAY ITS NOTHING THEY AND THEIR FAMILIES ARE NOT SUBJECT TO THIS. WHAT DO YOU THINK WOULD HAPPEN IF MCCAINS WIFE OR “MRS OBAMA” WERE TREATED THIS WAY? OR THEIR CHILDREN AND GRAND CHILDREN….

Have decided NOT to visit the USA, tough on my son who lives in LA and was looking forward to seeing us! I am not prepared to put up with that humiliation, if tourism is down blame the TSA methods where common sense does not prevail.
Rachael Williams commented:
USA is a worse police state than Israel. It wasn’t like this before modern Israel and the USA got married (or subverted depending on your POV).
Makes you think, doesn’t it?
Who wrecked this nation?

You sed: “What can peaceful, law abiding, citizens do to stop this?”
Stop incorrectly assuming one must be peaceful to be law abiding.
