The airlines are mighty gun-shy...
There is NO WAY in HELL they would strip search/violate my little daughter/son, touch them inappropriately, unnecessarily remove clothing, or treat them like terrorists!! Seriously??? Spoiled brat kid or not... Come on people.
The Jews lined up like SHEEP to be gassed/killed in Nazi camps too!!! No thanks!!! Right is right, wrong is wrong. If we let them... them will. My little 7 year old daughter is not a suicide bomber, Taliban, Ji-Hadist, or airline hi-jacker. She is a small town kid in AMERICA!!! If we have to violate our kids to be safe, then I WILL DRIVE the damn car. They are welcome to search us within reason, check the teddy bears, scan my luggage, see my shoes, etc... LAY A HAND ON MY KID INAPPROPRIATELY & I AM GOING TO TURN INTO A SECURITY THREAT. BY DEFAULT.
Is this what it has come to? Shall we just go ahead & get micro-chips implanted into our skin now??? Maybe we can have government installed cameras in our bathrooms for them to watch too. Have we gotten so desensitized to bureaucracy & shock of the government IMPOSING themselves on us that we accept this BS??? Crazy to me. JMO. Scoot
