Jean Weber filed a complaint with the Department of Homeland Security after her 95-year-old mother was detained and extensively searched last Saturday while trying to board a plane to fly to Michigan to be with family members during the final stages of her battle with leukemia.
Her mother, who was in a wheelchair, was asked to remove an adult diaper in order to complete a pat-down search.
“TSA cannot exempt any group from screening because we know from intelligence that there are terrorists out there that would then exploit that vulnerability,â€said Sari Koshetz a spokeswoman for the Transportation Security Administration in Miami,who also said she could not comment on specific cases to protect the privacy of those involved.

As said before, no public employee was ever disciplined for following orders.
Just whose privacy is this monsterette protecting?
At what point do we say that we’d rather take our chances with hijackers and such rather than put up with muggings on the ground?
