Three weeks ago my wife and two children flew to the US to visit their respective parents/grandparents.
On arrival in "The Country Formerly Known as Land of the Free." the two children were seperated from their mother by a "security goon" and had an explosives sniffer pointed at them.
When the six year old became hysterical at having a "gun" pointed at him and screamed for his mother the said goon ordered my wife to keep away from the children and then started shouting at her and the crying child.
I do hope this intellectual pygmy feels proud of himself for following the rules, to the letter, without the need to ever worry his tiny brain with the concept of "interpretation" "common sense" and that he displayed that customer first attitude that characterises much of the United States. My wife is disenchanted with the US these days because of oafs like this and she is a citizen.
