Conquering the Terrorist Threat by Terrorizing Little Girls
24th April 2012
Brademeyer and her two chldren flew to Wichita, Kansas, the weekend before last for her brother’s wedding. On the way back to Missoula, they shared a flight to Denver with Brademeyer’s mother, who lives in California. Brademeyer and her kids, ages 4 and 6, passed through the metal detector without incident, but her mother made the machine beep. Unable to determine what had triggered the alarm, a transportation security officer informed her that she would have to wait for a pat-down. At that point, Brademeyer reports on her Facebook page, her 4-year-old daughter, Isabella, noticed her grandmother and excitedly ran back through the checkpoint to hug her. “They made very brief contact,” Brademeyer says, “no longer than a few seconds.”
Brademeyer says the TSOs at the checkpoint reacted to this breach of protocol by screaming at Isabella, telling her she would have to undergo a pat-down as well. They darkly suggested that her grandmother might have passed a gun to her during their brief embrace, even though Isabella was not carrying anything or wearing any clothing with pockets. They refused to let her go back through the metal detector, insisting that she be frisked. Isabella began crying and ran away from the TSOs, enraging them further. They threatened to close down the airport in light of the “high security threat” posed by the terrified little girl. Although they at first insisted that Brademeyer keep her distance from Isabella, they eventually let her follow her daughter into a separate room for the pat-down. To the dismay of the TSO doing the groping, Isabella would not stop crying even when commanded to do so.
A President who wasn’t owned by the public employees’ unions would personally fire these assholes, much as Reagan fired the illegally striking air traffic controllers.

The TSA is worse than worthless. It should be abolished immediately, if not sooner.

Notice that the child in question was white. None of this would have happened if the child in question had been a member of a Preferred Non-Asian Minority. If we had a president who cared about anything except himself, he would put a stop to this kind of nonsense.
