TSA to review frisking for kids

[S.Belle]

BOWLING GREEN, Ky. — A Kentucky couple wants the TSA to change how it screens children after their 6-year-old daughter was frisked at the New Orleans airport.
Selena Drexel told ABC's "Good Morning America" Wednesday the family was returning home from a vacation earlier this month when their daughter Anna was selected for a pat-down. She said she asked for her daughter to be re-scanned, but was refused.
"We struggle to teach our kids to protect themselves, to say 'no, it's not OK to touch me in this way in this area," Selena Drexel told the network.
The incident drew attention and outrage after the Drexels posted a video of the search on YouTube.
The girl's father, Todd Drexel, said Anna was confused by the search and started crying afterward because she thought she'd done something wrong.
In a statement, the Transportation Security Administration says the officer followed proper procedure but that the agency is reviewing its screening policies.
NBC's Pete Williams reported that while the TSA didn't want to exempt an entire category of people from pat-downs, the agency's boss John Pistole wanted to move away from the one-size-fits-all system and improving screening of low-risk passengers such as children.

here is the vid that her parents posted on youtube


This is quite ridiculous as well.

well after we've seen the shoe bomber, the underwear bomber, the Christmas tree bomber and the Easter egg bomber

Any sort of bomber might emerge so we must do everything we can to protect the people.
