Changes made to airport screenings for young kids
The government's airport security chief says his agency has made changes to pat-downs for young children and more changes are coming.
Transportation Security Administration head John Pistole (PIH'-stohl) tells a Senate committee that airport screeners are now told to make repeated attempts to screen young children without using invasive pat-downs.
Earlier this year, a 6-year-old girl was given a pat-down because she moved during the electronic screening, causing a blurry image. There was public outrage that such a young child, who seemed to pose no terrorist threat, would have to go through what many consider an invasive search.
Pistole has said the agency is working on a modified pat-down for kids. He says terrorists outside the U.S. have used children as young as 10 as suicide bombers.







The question was inadequately phrased. Pistole is sick in the head. I would bet $500 that he does not have the ability to recite who is attacking America. He is a slimeball member of the Chuck meets Talking Tina and the Village People administration and he wants to molest us all. Personally or by proxy. He is sick and installed in his position by the same business cabal that funded Hitler from 1930 to 1942. If ou study history, you will find this info in books going back over 50 years.
