This is what our fucking tax dollars are going towards. Time to shut down the TSA. It's fucking worthless.

The dude is most likely a complete idiot. "I think I missed a spot on his genitals region."

You wouldn't be saying that if the little boy was harboringg a BOMB and went through UNDETECTED now, would you?!


Even if he had a bomb, the TSA would have failed to find it. Their failure rate is 95%.

You know whats funny and kind of sad. That in any other job market, if your failure rate is 95% then you'd like end up getting fired. Like even McDonalds and Wal-Mart workers get fired for having a 95% failure rate.

How do you even determine that? Do the have "mystery passengers" who try to sneak bombs onto planes and then report back to the TSA whether they succeeded?

Whats funny is that other countries who use the TSA don't allow them to do that shit. You can search a kid, but you can't touch all the spots that the dude did. They'd likely get fired on the spot.

Where the mother failed to follow simple directions, then acted like just because her kid has a problem, he should be exempt from being searched?

TSA is an absolute joke, but unless youre an absolute idiot, its not a problem at all.

I don't care if she's the most insufferable bitch on the planet, no excuse to feel this kid up multiple times in the same spot, especially the junk region.

Then she should follow simple instructions, which she failed to do.

Ive never once been felt up or searched like this in the multiple times ive been through tsa, the majority of the people who go through it dont. I feel bad for the kid because his mother is an absolute idiot.

What exactly was he supposed to do? I saw the kid standing there while the guy searched him. Isn't that what most people are supposed to do?

He left his laptop in his bag

Which, as i just went through tsa yesterday, they tell you specfically to take large electronics out of your bags and put them in seperately.

They repeat this multiple times
They have signs saying this.


And the mother failed to do this. Then when they got in trouble, asked them to not search the child as he has a condition thats rare and not to touch him. That could also be a warning flag that im sure tsa was thinking about. I doubt they have procedures in place for a rare disorder like this.

I feel awful for the kid, but if as a parent you cant follow clearly labeled instructions that are also getting shouted constantly by the multiple tsa officers, then you dont get to sit here and cry when it was your incompetance that lead you to that situation in the first place.

This doesnt mean tsa isnt a joke. Tsa sucks, but they did their job, the mother failed to follow directions.

I don't think any of that justifies what they did here. A further search was warranted, but they went way beyond that. The way you've worded this indicates that you feel this is an appropriate consequence for not following directions, but security screenings aren't supposed to be about punishing people.

It's their job to fondle boys? Did you watch the video? I don't think my wife has ever groped me like that and again, there's no excuse for that kind of "pat down" even if he broke a bag rule and the mom argued.

Child diddlers, molesters and people who like to steal shit. Basically, most of the ones in the USA/Canada are failures at life.

Yes, rather than taking issue with their ineffective techniques let's cry about how they aren't doing them to brown people more often.
