TSA Detains Wheelchair-Bound Three-Year Old Girl
Took her stuffed animal and made her cry, apparently for giggles
The parents of a toddler with spinal bifida are outraged after TSA officials forced their daughter to undergo a series of additional security measures ahead of their flight to Disney World.
Nathan and Annie Forck were flying out of their home state of Missouri on a February 8 flight bound for Orlando, Florida with their wheelchair-bound daughter Lucy and their two other children.
Mrs Forck took a six-minute video detailing their toddler's cries as she said through tears that she didn't want to go to Disney World anymore, and is claiming the TSA discriminates against people who use mobility devices.

I can't think of anything nasty enough to do to someone who makes little girls cry without Damned Good Reasons. Please list suggestions below.
Disgusting troglodytes, the whole lot of them.
