Americans who drive trucks and perform surgery and have little six year old daughters aren't safe to travel by air unless we have something in place. It may not be the best something, but we can't just read and hear what commentators have to say, we have to think for ourselves.

It isn't as bad as it could be. It isn't as good as it could be. Neither is cancer treatment, but we can't just not do something. I really do NOT think that woman who was giving that child a physical search was at ALL sexually motivated. I think she could have been showing her authority or she had her orders wrong. OR maybe they do searches like that sporadically to show that searches like that are done...

It isn't right and it isn't pretty.
Sexually motivated or not, that woman is priming that little girl to relinquish control of her own body to someone who seems to be in an authority position.

Why are you so dead set on continuing these procedures that degrade people? Why can't you a least agree that all avenues should be explored, and in particular the one that has the most successful record in the world without degrading it's population.
