TSA terrorizes wheelchair-bound three-year-old traveling with his family to Disney World
Serving as yet another reminder of just how ridiculous the “national security” theater is in America today, a U.S. Transportation Security Administration screener at O’Hare International Airport in Chicago has been caught on tape patting down a three-year-old in a wheelchair, and swabbing the boy’s body, cast, and chair for explosives.
Russia Today reports that the boy and his parents, grandparents, and two siblings were on their way to Walt Disney World in Florida when a TSA screener decided to pull the boy aside. As captured by the boy’s father, the screener, who in all fairness was gentle and kind to the boy during the process, proceeded to pat the boy down, lift up his shirt, and swab his person and wheelchair for explosives.
Visibly shaken throughout the entire experience, the young boy is seen on camera shaking and scared while his father, who was filming the incident, repeatedly reassures his son that everything will be fine. However, the boy’s father was not allowed to get near his son and comfort him during the process, and was reportedly refused by TSA screeners from even holding the boy’s hand.
