Grapevine, TX – A mother says she and her special needs son were “treated like dogs” after her request for alternate screening at Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport led an officer to closely pat down the boy.

Jennifer Williamson videotaped Sunday’s search of her son, Aaron, who appears to cooperate. The Facebook video was viewed nearly 6 million times by Tuesday.
Williamson, who didn’t give her son’s age or their destination, says he has sensory processing disorder. She says he didn’t set off any alarms through security.
A Transportation Security Administration statement says approved procedures were followed to resolve an alarm on the passenger’s laptop.
Williamson says they were detained more than an hour.
TSA officials say Williamson and her son were at the checkpoint 45 minutes, including to discuss screening procedures with her.
The TSA are idiots; worthless and useless. Some of them are common thieves, and are sexual perverts. In spite of their so-called screening, weapons and other prohibited items still get through.
I don’t know who is bigger scum
The moslem murderers who have forced us to get undressed prior to going on an airplane
Or the dozens of insensitive TSA morons I’ve had the unfortunate occasion to meet
The only government agency whose ineptitude approaches the brain dead TSA is New York City’s ACS. They have caused unlimited grief to innocent parents citywide, while they have missed the obvious true cases of abuse, resulting in deaths and serious injuries. It needs to be abolished and replaced. Same goes for TSA. In addition, the TSA rules need to be revamped completely. They are notorious for being ridiculous with old ladies, children, etc., while they cannot stop an Arabic speaking, Middle Eastern person because of “political correctness” – one of the stupidest ideas in world history.
