A mother who asked TSA agents at DFW International Airport for alternative screening for her son with special needs said they were "treated like dogs" and forced to miss a flight during an extensive security check, according to her Facebook post that has since gone viral.

But the Transportation Security Administration said in a prepared statement that it followed approved procedures to "resolve an alarm of the passenger's laptop."

Jennifer Williamson wrote Sunday morning that her son has a sensory processing disorder and that she asked agents to "screen him in other ways per TSA rules."

In America, this would be dealt with by patriots with pitchforks, tar and feathers.

That America is long gone.

Tell me where would we get that kind of tar? They don’t tar the outside of ships like they used to.

As for getting the feathers, even harder now with PETA, where would we get that much?

Can you imagine what we’d have been saying if the Cold War USSR did this to its citizens? We’d have rightly gone nuts about it.

What happened? (And don’t blame Obama. This has been building up since Ruby Ridge).

Give a badge and a little authority to certain people and this is what happens .... Not “unexpected” behavior.

Ruby Ridge caused us to start to mistrust law enforcement, it was the beginning. Then Waco, Texas happened now no one trusts them.

This TSA happened after 911. They pat down everyone but muslims so we know it’s a scam. Not only should TSA agents who grope people be tarred and feathered but people demanding an end to this. After all, once the muslims are gone, thanks Trump, America will be great again.

The TSA screener is a PERVERT! He was groping that kid’s crotch like Rosie O’Donnell sqeezing a jelly donut! That was not a search. It was molestation! Seriously. If you haven’t seen it.....beyond the pale.

If it were my son. I’d have tackled the PERVERT and I don’t know what else...

As the late Fred Honsberger of KDKA radio said

"We have to pretend that we're not looking for the people that we're looking for."

Yep, the pat down was only a couple of min. I have waited longer to put my laptop on the conveyor.

I used to have to fly several times a year to go to meetings. No longer, since I retired. I’ll never fly again.
