Quote:The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) is defending its agents after a woman complained they forced her 95-year-old mother to remove her adult diaper to be screened before she got on a plane earlier this month.

The woman's daughter, Jean Weber, filed a complaint with federal authorities after a TSA agent at Destin-Fort Walton Beach Airport demanded that her mother take off her adult diaper because it was soiled and impeding their search. Weber's mother, who is battling leukemia and in a wheelchair, did not have another diaper with her.

"It's something I couldn't imagine happening on American soil," she told the Northwest Florida News.

Weber told CNN she burst into tears as she took her mother into the bathroom to remove her diaper and bring her back to security agents for more searching in a private area.

Sure, lets not check old ladis with diapers or people who are mentally handicapped. Lets just give the terrorists an avenue in which they can blow up a plane. Of course, it is all the TSA's fault. These people couldn't possibly be terrorists(or at least "forced" terrorists).

The Israelis do not operate the way the TSA does.
