Hey, Look: The TSA is Still Patting Down Toddlers

Profiling

04.23.2014 | News | Matt Fox |

Here’s a viral video that was posted on the kooky website of Alex Jones called Infowars. But regardless of the source, the point is taken.

TSA claims they rolled back their policy of patting down children under the age of twelve way back in 2011, but this video, purportedly taken just a few days ago, shows the Agency giving its full attention to a pair of helpless toddlers, aged two and six. The pat-downs administered include chests, inner thighs, and backsides. In the clip, the kids are clearly terrified by the invasive policy, with the young boy nervously stating “I need to go.”

Thank God for the TSA, though, right? Terrorist toddlers are clearly on the rise!

Nope, it’s just another moronic judgment call from an equally moronic agency that claims it’s all in the name of keeping us safe. Meanwhile, I’m waiting to see a companion YouTube video, in which a man sporting a full turban breezes right through security without so much as a question. Because, you know, that whole racial profiling thing is wrong, or something.
