Could this be going a bit too far?

Jean Weber has filed a complaint with the TSA over the way they treated her mother prior to boarding a Northwest Florida Regional Airport-Michigan flight last weekend. Weber's mother is 95 years old and in the terminal stages of leukemia; she was flying to Michigan so as to be closer to her family in her final days. The woman, who is wheelchair bound and weighs 105 pounds, was made to remove her adult diaper during the pat-down procedure.

They went way too far when I personally saw them make a 2 year old take off his sneakers at midnight in a snowy seattle airport. I think they are a forerunner of very bad things.
