1. I think the woman from the security crew WAS talking to, as the esteemed doctor so eloquently put it, "a retard."
2. Someone should teach the esteemed doctor not to call people "retards."
3. The esteemed doctor should be psychiatrically evaluated if she actually thought the puffer machine was a gas chamber, because we got rid of the on-site gas chambers in American airports at least 6 years ago..
4. Someone should tell the esteemed doctor to stop being such a freaking crybaby.
5. There should be a special line for all the people who bellyache about having to go through airport security: the line that takes them to the bus to the nearest train station/car rental agency/cruise ship port.
Most of the security people in the US are low paid and poorly trained.
Unfortunately, this is true. Many of them are retards. No tolerance TSA regulations are written so that security people do not have to think. Just blindly follow the rules and search 90-year-old grandmothers.
