In Defense of our Children: TSA is Out of Control
http://www.brasschecktv.com/page/978.html
=== It's sick - plain and simple ===
There's been little discussion about the euphemstically-named full-body "pat downs" taking place in US airports as they effect CHILDREN. We've put up numerous videos now of very young children being stripped searched in public, touched against their will, and, in any other place and under any other circumstances, molested by TSA screeners.

Parents are counseled to tell their children that these "screenings" are a game. The US news media's comment on this? Deafening silence. (VN: The good news is they will suffer the same penalty as the criminals doing this when brought up and proven they are complicit in covering up the criminal aspects of the game they are playing.)
Instead they ask us if we aren't being "too sensitive" and tell us there needs to be a "balance between security and privacy." Children are being taught that anyone in uniform has free access to their bodies...that they can't say "no"...and that their parents are unable to protect them. (VN: Remember our series on mind control and brain washing starts with little children to create a psychological split in their brain. If children can't feel safe because their parents can't protect them, then they will go where ever they are promised safety and one of the goals of the illums is to have the state raise a whole generation of children without their parents and then they can do as they did to Cathy O'Brien, is have them sexually assaulted and then designate one adult as their rescuer and hero who they will be safe with and that becomes their "handler". We showed all that on here in our very extensive series on this issue. OUR CHILDREN ARE AT RISK)
In turn, parents are being taught that they cannot protect their children. The only word that comes to my mind to describe this enterprise is "criminal." Did not the TSA, Homeland Security, and the White House (and the jackals in Congress that fund this insanity) anticipate this as an outcome?
There are two possibilities here: either this is official idiocy and arrogance of the highest order or this outcome was anticipated and deemed acceptable. (VN: or it was intentional) I don't know the answer...but I do know that as a governmenty agency that works closely with the CIA and FBI, Homeland Security and the TSA have access to hundreds of psychologists and psychiatrists, in their employ, under contract, and available at the drop of a dime.
I am not an expert in child abuse so I asked my friend and colleague Kenneth Wooden for his comment.
Wooden is a former journalist and author of the chilling and important book "The Children of Jonestown."
His experience covering the Jonestown story and seeing the hundreds of children's coffins that came back from Guyana motivated him to create a training company that teaches children how to identify and protect themselves from predators.
I asked him what he thinks of the TSA's policy of commanding its employees to strip search and conduct
full body "pat downs" of small children. I specifically asked him his opinion of the TSA advising that young children be told that these officially sanctioned intrusions of their bodies are a game.
Wooden's answer follows...
=== The TSA has crossed the line ===
As a national child personal safety expert, I submit the TSA crosses the line when it allows the patting down of children for security reasons, cloaked as a game. The most recent Gallup Poll on childhood abuse revealed that in just one year, more than a million children were sexually and physically abused.
Along the same lines, the American Medical Association has referred to the rape and sexual exploitation of women and children as a "violent and silent epidemic." Men increasingly reveal how they were sexually assaulted in their youth, by a rainbow of sexual predators, usually someone they knew.
Given that background - and the number of survivors that have been sexually abused and exploited - it is beyond comprehension how the Homeland Security Agency's TSA can conceive of such insensitive and invasive security checks on our children and youth. Even worse, they want to depict pat downs of children as a game!
As an investigative researcher/reporter who has interviewed well over a thousand sexual offenders, I can document that one of the favorite ploys to lure children and youth into sexual abuse is to disguise it as a "game." How can experts working at the TSA be so incredibly misinformed and misguided to suggest that full body pat downs for children be portrayed as a game?! (VN: That is what they are trained to say. Remember, he even said the CIA should know better given the massive number of psychologists on their payroll, well, if you want to mind control the children when they become adults this is how you do it, its classic mind control training for the victim.) To do so is completely contrary to what we in the sexual abuse prevention field have been trying to accomplish for the past thirty years.
Such policy could essentially desensitize children to inappropriate touch and ultimately make it easier for sexual offenders to prey on our children. This policy is also incredibly insensitive to the countless victims who have already been traumatized by unwanted touching in their lives and could be re-traumatized by such pat-downs.
In my judgment as a lifelong journalist and child advocate, such unapprised actions by the TSA borders on criminal negligence and, legally speaking, "deliberate indifference to the future emotional well being of millions of victims and the potential for far too many more young victims."

=== What you can do ===
Please - if you think this information is important - share this
e-mail far and wide.
As far as I know, this issue is not being discussed
anywhere else in a public forum in America...not
in Congress, not in the news media, not in the White
House, and not in the self-justifying press conferences
of the TSA. (VN: AND HOMELAND SECURITY NOW NEEDS TO BE SERIOUSLY LOOKED AT IN LIGHT OF THIS ENTIRE ISSUE. Something isn't right in that dept. )
The TSA, and the entire US government White House and
Congress, has crossed the line here.
Think long and hard before you agree to allowing the small children in your care to be subjected to these
searches.
Let the so-called public servants who conceived of and imposed this system - and now unashamedly defend it - know what you think.
Share this e-mail.
Thanks.
