Woman With Cancer, Asked To Lift Shirt, Bandages At Airport

Sad but necessary.If they start making concessions because of people like her with major health issues an entire planeload will eventually die.

its not needed none of the TSA nazi's are.... they havent found anything on their own .... two fat cops a box of doughnuts and a metal detector would work about the same... be just as efficient and stop the same amount of bad guys trying to get onto a plane
