Bob Thomas, a Camden police officer was with his wife and their 4 year old "developmentally delayed" son at the airport, taking him to Walt Disney World for his birthday. The term applies to children that were prematurely born. The child was in a wheel chair or stroller and has leg braces which he needs to walk. He was just learning to walk, and he had weak ankles and leg muscles; thus the leg braces.
His father and mother got to the TSA security check point, and the stroller was collapsed and put on the conveyor. The son walked through the metal detector and it went off. The TSA screener told them the braces had to come off for inspection. The screener was told that the child could not walk without the braces, so would not be able to walk through the detector. The mother said she would have to help her son walk through, and the screener said the child has to get through on his own. Mom in front, dad behind, he stumbled though.
The father, Bob, asked to talk to a supervisor. The supervisor said "You know why we're doing this." The father said he was going to file a report, and the supervisor walked away.
The supervisor should be fired, the screener should be fired.
When are we going to get serious about protecting this country? We are screening moms and dads, disabled four year olds, grandmas, white WWII veterans.
