TSA video aimed at kids
 
Sorry if this has already been posted, I have been traveling a lot and haven't been here in a while.

Lovely video to help kids feel at ease with TSA screenings. Makes me want to vomit.:mad:

Totally disgusting. The child has to have her baby bottle screened, "but don't worry, she'll get it back." Yeah, right. Tell that to all the mothers who've lost their breast milk.

And what's up with the wtmd? The father announces that "it's a metal detector." More than likely, it's going to be a nude-o-scope.

I wish I could animate, then you would see a video that shows what really happens.

This showed up on the TSA Blog over Pistole's name on December 18th. Only 21 comments were posted and it took 6 days to post 10 of them. Most of the posted comments are asking about the lack of comments.

From your link:


TSA’s new website for kids offers children and parents of young travelers important security information in a fun and engaging way and encourages children to learn more about TSA procedures prior to traveling. The website features travel security activities as well as security related videos and information to teach children and their parents about the security process. This website will not only keep young travelers informed, it will make traveling more enjoyable for the entire family.
bolding mine.

Yeah, sure, being molested is so much fun, and while you're at it, let's brainwash the chilluns.

Yes, with a cameo by Goebbels. He was good with kids.

A couple of thoughts on this video:

1. The dad uses the term "officer" for the document checker which for a child would seem no different from a police officer who should always be obeyed.

2. Both parents use the slogan "Stop, Screen, Go" which is very close to the easy to remember jingle that small children are taught in case their clothing should catch fire, "Stop, Drop, Roll."

3. From their tails they look like foxes which certainly seems fitting for the TSA agents pictured since in many ancient culture's myths and folk stories foxes represent animals or spirits that are cunning, crafty and use trickery and are not to be trusted!
