TSA Fears 90 Year Old Woman! Maybe Their "Profiling Process" Is A Bit Wrong!

TSA Goes Way Too Far…Here’s What They Demanded This 90-Year-Old Woman Do

"no sanity or sensitivity at all..."

Over the years the TSA has exceeded its authority many, many times, and people have called out the government security agents for grossly inappropriate behavior. But what TSA officers demanded that a 90-year-old woman in Portland do was beyond the pale.
According to KATU-TV, Alan Charney said that his elderly mother, Harriette, was put through the full body scanner at Portland International Airport when the alarm sounded. TSA agents ushered the woman to the side and made ready to perform a more thorough search.

Charney said that he understood that a more intense search was about to occur, but he wasn’t prepared for just how invasive the search was to become.
Apparently the TSA said that his mother’s bra was suspicious and that the woman was going to have to disrobe to prove that she wasn’t some sort of terrorist.
As Charney explained, his mother had sewn a small pocket into the bra where she secreted a few extra dollars in case of an emergency. But the man’s explanation was disregarded by the security agents.
“They wanted her to take, I guess, take all of her clothes off from her waist up,” Charney told the ABC affiliate, “and so she took off that and took off her bra … and I’m like ‘what??!!'”
The TV station asked the TSA why it demanded that the 90-year-old woman completely disrobe over the bra issue and were told that usually officials just ask for a quick visual check in a private room and that forcing the passenger to totally disrobe seemed beyond the normal procedures.
As far as the woman’s son was concerned, the whole thing was outrageous. “There was no sanity or sensitivity at all to the work that they were doing,” he said.
