(CNN) -- The Transportation Security Administration has denied that its agents required a 95-year-old woman to remove her adult diaper last week before allowing her to pass a screening checkpoint at Northwest Florida Regional Airport.

"While every person and item must be screened before entering the secure boarding area, TSA works with passengers to resolve security alarms in a respectful and sensitive manner," the agency said Sunday night in a statement. "We have reviewed the circumstances involving this screening and determined that our officers acted professionally, according to proper procedure and did not require this passenger to remove an adult diaper."

A response released earlier Sunday by the TSA said that the agency had reviewed the circumstances "and determined that our officers acted professionally and according to proper procedure."

The woman's daughter, Jean Weber, told CNN on Monday that the TSA agents acted professionally and never ordered the removal of her mother's diaper. However, Weber said the agents made it clear that her mother could not board the plane unless they were able to inspect the diaper.

the options offered them were to remove the diaper or "she was not going to get on the plane."

How do these people lie with a straight face?

Why was a leukemic woman’s diaper of interest to the TSA?

Answer: There were no little girls or playmates to fondle.

I don’t know what it is exactly, you may be very accurate here for all I know. My concern is what happens as the accurate figure grows. If it’s this bad now, what will it be like when doubled, tripled?

Now is the time to think about that.

We are going to diversify ourselves right out of existence if we’re not careful. We’re certainly on the path to that right now.

The sh*tty diaper just hit the fan.

Fascist double speak will not wash off the manure.

"...determined that our officers acted professionally..."

Professional JBTs and Perverts.

Just wait until the Amalgamated Union of JBTs and Perverts is in charge of the TSA.

In fairness, there could have been quite a bomb in that diaper.

[Molon Labbie]

Yeah, lets offend the sensibilities of 99 percent of America to placate people who are absolutely hellbent on destroying our way of life...

What will happen when the first TSA agent gets beaten to a bloody pulp over something like this? You will notice it’s always White people who get screened like this. Racism????

All right now, it is not just white folks who are getting thugged at the airports. Last time I flew the line was about half and half. ALL grannies in line were getting felt up, black and white. Doesn’t matter. The only ones who are getting a pass are young arab males.

barak may hate white folks, but his stasi is not discriminating. They are picking on the path of least resistance.

That is exactly what they are hoping for. They are intentionally proving the peace loving American public into enough rage to create a public event.

Only then, do they have the excuse to bring in heavy fire power, revoke even more of our freedoms, and shove us all into the cages they have prepared.

I still have over 200,000 air miles saved. They may go to the Soldier/Marine pool. I enjoy driving and live pert-near the center of the country(Texas).
