![]() He obviously is not capable of rational judgment. The person who came up with that concept needs to be removed from his position… now. I *do* care that groping children would be referred to as a game. When push comes to shove… most likely a harmless scan is not all that major an issue. So we need to either remove that empowerment (which frankly is probably not going to happen)… or live with the consequences. We’ve screamed about terrorism and planes (probably to paranoia pitch) and have empowered the government to take what is in truth probably ridiculously excessive steps. Security or freedom folks we can’t have both. If they’re willing to take that risk… then I feel they’re confident enough in the scanner system and how it works.Īnyone out there want to tell their doctor he can’t see them naked? Maybe the TSA needs to wise up (as in get a grain of sanity people)… and maybe the general public needs to stop going drama queen over what is an apparently necessary step IF they want actual security. And if a picture of me appears anywhere, I will sue the airport involved to the last available dime. Myself, I will be willing to step through a simple scanner check and avoid the entire patdown process. It seems there is lack of common sense, and over-reaction, on all sides of this issue. ![]() So why are people so extremely vehement about this issue? ![]() We don’t complain when a doctor sees us naked. That said however, it should be realized that security scanner guards… after seeing thousands of such scans every day… would become extremely jaded to these things. One would have to believe there is a way to scan people quickly and efficiently without their picture potentially winding up on the internet or being drooled over by a perv security guard. This is wrong in so many ways, we have to wonder who is making $$$$ off this airport scanner deal. I am as much for airport security as anyone else… but there is NOTHING about this current situation that is logical, sensible or right. It has gotten to the point that the TSA itself has become the terrorists. Like the right of association, … it is a virtually unconditional personal right, guaranteed by the Constitution to us all.” It is interesting to note that the Articles of Confederation had an explicit right to travel it is now thought that the right is so fundamental that the Framers may have thought it unnecessary to include it in the Constitution or the Bill of Rights.Īre these people totally insane? What we are seeing here is uber-paranoia at its worst. 618 (1969), Justice Stewart noted in a concurring opinion that “it is a right broadly assertable against private interference as well as governmental action. 745 (1966), the Court noted, “It is a right that has been firmly established and repeatedly recognized.” In fact, in Shapiro v Thompson, 394 U.S. The presumed right to travel, however, is firmly established in U.S. The right to travel is described as:Īs the Supreme Court notes in Saenz v Roe, 98-97 (1999), the Constitution does not contain the word “travel” in any context, let alone an explicit right to travel (except for members of Congress, who are guaranteed the right to travel to and from Congress). I can’t tell if you’re being facetious or not. “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.” “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?” Wooden asked in an email. Ken Wooden, who runs an organization to try to stop sex abuse of children was not pleased: He also said that the idea of making it a game would become a part of the TSA’s training. If you can come up with some kind of a game to play with a child, it makes it a lot easier.” “You try to make it as best you can for that child to come through. Apparently TSA agents are being told that one way to handle the new groping pat downs for children is to try to make it out to be some sort of “game.” This is apparently horrifying some sex abuse experts who point out that a common tactic in abuse cases is to tell the kids that they’re just “playing a game.” The TSA has said that the newer patdowns will not apply to children under 12, but the rules have been somewhat unclear - leading to the statement from a TSA director, James Marchand: MHRA 'GOP - General Operations Plot', All Acronyms, 6 July 2023, Bluebook All Acronyms, GOP - General Operations Plot (Jul.
