Four Year Old Had Gun Says TSA
Of all the many complaints about airport security and the TSA, one of the most common is that they make little distinction between plausible security threats and passengers unlikely to be doing anything wrong.
And a recent incident in Wichita, Kansas has reinforced that argument, as a four-year-old girl was apparently subjected to a humiliating ordeal after she hugged her grandmother while she was waiting in line.
The girl was accused of having a gun and declared a 'high security threat', while agents threatened to shut down the whole airport if she could not be calmed down.
The family was returning to their Montana home after attending a wedding in Kansas.
It's another example of how people in this country, any country, don't care until after it's too late. This incident happened a month ago and the only reason MJH knew about it was because I read it in the UK Mail, a British newspaper.
Wake up, America!
