RSSCould This Have Happened Differently?
J.J. Jackson | April 3, 2006
An infuriated Denver woman has filed a complaint with the Transportation Security Administration after a security screener forced her 83-year-old mother to get out of her wheelchair and walk to a pre-flight screening area, despite doctor’s orders not to stand and an orthopedic card saying she had a metal plate in her hip.
The incident at Denver International Airport occurred eight days ago when Sally Moon, her sister and a Frontier Airlines employee were transporting Bernice “Bea” Bogart to a special security screening area. Moon’s sister, who did not have concourse clearance and the Frontier employee were left behind as Moon pushed her mother to the screening site. – WorldNetDaily
The incident escalated from there
“There were no grab bars,” Moon told the Rocky Mountain News. “What I could see really was her fingers trying to hang onto a little ledge.”Moon says she instinctively reached out to assist her mother, fearing another fall and another broken hip.
“Don’t touch her!” Moon says the screener warned.
Moon attempted to tell the young screener, a woman in her mid-to-late 20s, that her mother was under doctor’s orders not to stand without her four-wheeled walker, but the screener shot back, “You’d better change your attitude. Or do you want me to make it so you don’t fly today?”
Now, let’s imagine the scenario if American citizens actually were allowed to partake of their Constitutional rights in this country shall we?
In an airport filled with diligent American citizens the scenario might have unfolded as follows:
Moon says she instinctively reached out to assist her mother, fearing another fall and another broken hip.“Don’t touch her!” Moon says the screener warned.
Moon attempted to tell the young screener, a woman in her mid-to-late 20s, that her mother was under doctor’s orders not to stand without her four-wheeled walker, but the screener shot back, “You’d better change your attitude. Or do you want me to make it so you don’t fly today?”
At that point 15 patriots pulled out a variety of side arms and pointed them directly at the shocked TSA screener who promptly proceeded to wet her pants. “Now I know you didn’t just tell this young lady what I think you did little Miss,” one of the armed citizen said. “Apologize please.”
Witnesses confirm that the young socialist fell on her knees and begged for forgiveness from the lady and promptly returned her mother to her wheelchair. Immediately afterwards the screener was placed under citizen’s arrest and taken away on charges of harassment.
But like I said that would only be possible in a world where citizens are actually allowed to partake of their Constitutionally guaranteed rights – not in modern America.
