TSA Pats Down 3-Year-Old 1135

3-year-old Mandy Simon started crying when her teddy bear had to go through the X-ray machine at airport security in Chattanooga, Tenn. She was so upset that she refused to go calmly through the metal detector, setting it off twice. Agents then informed her parents that she "must be hand-searched." The subsequent TSA employee pat down of the screaming child was captured by her father, who happens to be a reporter, on his cell phone. The video have left some questioning why better procedures for children aren't in place. I, for one, feel much safer knowing the TSA is protecting us from impressionable minds warped by too much Dora the Explorer.

Excuse me sir while your groping my nuts could you please scratch the back of the left one I don't want to get my hand all sweaty.
I'll drop my pants in front of the whole airport before I go through one of those machines. Might as well let the whole airport get a laugh instead of just one or two TSA agents.
