Over the weekend, a group of (portly, I'm assuming, they all are) power hungry idiotic TSA agents took it upon themselves to remove a 95-year old, wheel chair bound, cancer stricken woman's adult diaper. You know, because it was "stiff."
Here comes the TMI part: my grandmother has recently traded in her Jockeys for Depends, I've got a niece and nephew in diapers (and pull ups),...and lemme tell you, ...urine hardens. Proms.
A few weekends ago, I went on an airplane for the first time in a year (I know, woe is me the poor law student) and I was subjected to the patdown on one leg of the trip, and the body scanner on the other. Woof. Talk about feeling like a criminal/Venezuelan drug lord.
See, this is where Congressman turned presidential hopeful Ron Paul and I agree: the TSA has got to go. Yes, I understand the TSA is here to protect us...but since the agency has invaded airports across the country...attempted terrorists have made it past their invasive measures. Ahem, underwear bomber?
I hope the ACLU and several others jump all over this to help pay for this poor woman's chemo sessions. Surely there's a 1983 action to be had, right?
Srsly.

The kicker that wasn't mentioned, Granny only had the one diaper on...it was soiled. The "caring" daughter didn't have any spares. Granted, the TSA was so completely in the wrong on this one. We should have the Israelis come in and handle our security.
