TSA Confused by Braces and Crutches

Chris Morran at the Consumerist:

The tiny (potential) terrorists of the world continue to wreak havoc at airport security checkpoints. We already brought you the story of the 4-year-old who dared to hug her grandmother in view of TSA screeners, and now comes the tale of a 7-year-old girl with cerebral palsy whose crutches and leg braces reportedly confounded security personnel at JFK Airport.

As I’ve mentioned before, my son has partial hemiplegia due to his brain cancer, and walks (with a limp) with a brace on his left leg. If we ever had an issue at an airpot like this family did, I would lose my shit.
