I’m getting really tired of reporting these disgusting tales of TSA abuse. They are enabled precisely by those people out there who say “there’s nothing to” the new TSA security theater and “anything to make us safe!” Anything? Even removing a disabled boy’s leg braces and telling him to walk under his own power? Has the TSA merged with the charlatan faith-healers? Has their god complex gone so far now that they think they can heal the sick? But can they heal their own sickness?

    The TSA is WAY OUT-OF-LINE!!:((

  2. David Sjolander says:

    The TSA is **way** **out** **of** **line!**:((

  3. vladko says:

    Look at Pistole, he looks sick. Napolitano is another weirdo. Removing a boy’s braces, is their no limit to their sickness

  4. Robert says:

    The absolute, God forsaken, horriffic mentality the TSA now operates with. This is unspeakable insanity. At this point I’m ready to believe that the only way people are going to finally stand up and put down this beast called “TSA” is when the TSA guns down a school bus full of children because the children refuse to be molested by the TSA agents.

  5. Dale says:

    Our family doesn’t fly anymore. We lossed $400 on a plane ticket because Delta wouldn’t refund us due to the policy change “not being their fault”. I am a father and husband, and I refuse let my wife or daughters to subject to such things in order to fly. Its a major disappointment.

    • CLARE says:

      Good for you Dale! I’m sorry you were out the $400. I think someone needs to file a class action suit for all those in your same position, as I know there are many.

    • S.M. says:

      It may not be their fault, but the illegal searches without probable cause are NOT what you signed up for when you bought your ticket! Good for you for taking a stand, and it’s completely unfair that you were out any money.

  6. Snowflake says:

    This is absolutely horrible! My brother is disabled and will never be able to walk. We will never fly again because not flying is the only way I can fully protect him! We’ll drive or take a train instead of flying.

  7. Sandra says:

    People say the TSA agents are just doing following orders.

    That’s what Nazi officers said.

    • S.M. says:

      That’s exactly what I thought, too. But you know how they say “Those who don’t know history are condemned to repeat it”…it’s doubtful the people implementing these policies made it far enough in school to learn about the Nazis.

  8. CLARE says:

    Does the question really need to be asked???? Are they going too far? Who in God’s name would say no? We refuse to fly until the TSA and it’s security theater is abolished.

  9. LCap says:

    “The stupidity is breathtaking.” No kidding.

    He suggests “a class in common sense”. A class? Dude, it’s going to take far more than a class to pound some common sense into people who are starting so far below the bar.

  10. Michael Pizzo says:

    WHere are all the comments that say “whatever it takes to make me safe?” These would be the losers who ripped out a wound pump from my foot leaving me bleeding in Ft Myers a year ago.

  11. tankfixer says:

    Apparently TSA now thinks they are Jesus ?
    That’s the only rational explanation for commanding the boy to rise and walk !

  12. Gayle Martin says:

    I think it’s been proven that the TSA targets the elderly, the disabled, small children and pregnant women. In other words, they target the weakest and the most vulnerable among us. Someone said it so well on Facebook, “Flying while disabled is the new driving while black.”

  13. Minimum wage workers. Big Sis mentality. Demands this protest continues. Cool Runnings!

  14. Joe Jericho says:

    Amen. The stupidity is breath-taking.

  15. JSM says:

    Morons. Cut and dry. These people are “protecting” the skies.

  16. Kim B says:

    Be assured this is still going on with other passengers in recent weeks…..Cannot go into details,law suit pending..TSA is in possesion of device, custom made and will not reliquish. Passenger forced to fly without prostethic and TSA will not return…look for law suit in following weeks

  17. Karl says:

    What’s long and hard and screws officers in the TSA?
    Elimentary school.

  18. The kids who had to walk into the gas chambers had to remove their leg braces too…

  19. christopher grogan says:

    I feel so much safer knowing that a 4 year old who can’t walk without braces is not carrying a bomb… the TSA really has our best interest at heart.
    Now, why can’t the government stop a low level military schmuck from dumping national security documents and correspondence? We must be really safe now.

  20. J.J. Davis says:

    The TSA website “Assistive Devices and Mobility Aids: Travelers with Disabilities and Medical Conditions https://www.tsa.gov/travelers/airtravel/specialneeds/editorial_1370.shtm#0 specifically states:

    “Security Officers will not ask nor require you to remove your prosthetic device, cast, or support brace.”

    Someone needs to tell the so-called “Security Officers” about this.

  21. Jeffrey says:

    TSA is absolutely out of control!!! This is exactly what the terrorist want you dumb @$$es!!! I travel for a living and find it absolutely miserable to fly any more. TSA should stannd for TOTALLY STUPID @$$HOLES!! I have to fly with a bag of tools and supplys for my industry. Some of the products we use we have to travel with. So what I do is leave them in the same bottles I purchased them in and put a MSDS sheet with every product showing these dumb @$$es they are not hazardous, but 9 out of 10 times they throw them away, costing me more money! TSA needs to go!!!!! NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!
