I'm even less surprised that they made a feeble octogenarian submit to a full-body search: the same thing happened last summer to my Alzheimer's-afflicted father, when we flew to Minneapolis from Jacksonville to visit our daughter. <br /><br />Because he was in a transport chair, due to balance deficits, the TSA officers refused to let him go through the X-ray scanner--bad enough in itself--subjecting him instead to frisking. I don't know what he made of the indignity to which he was subjected; though he was obviously not pleased by the procedure, we were able to keep him calm, so that he did not become combative . . . I would not have been surprised, had he done so, to see the security goons tackle him to the floor and cuff him.<br /><br />Oh well, at least, as the sorry incident involving Dr. Kissinger shows, the TSA personnel are equal-opportunity morons and bullies.Carlos Pererahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00253355647824872032noreply@blogger.com
