TSA under fire for 6-year-old patdown attitude

One of the real dangers of this thing called the 'Net and its related "blogs" is that it lets all sorts of people anonymously express opinions. The TSA is the one of the more frequent targets of the opinionated, and for good reason, since it continues to show all the sensitivity of a gang of bulls at a maximum-security prison in the name of keeping flying safe. For more background see the post on this blog below on the patdown of a 6-year-old. I give TSA credit for not censoring more of the comments posted on its blog about this. As you can see, parents in particular are outraged about the TSA's lack of sensitivity, to put it politely, about frisking small children. (I only read the first third of the blog posts, but I doubt if the tone changes.)
