The U.S. Transportation Security Administration is taking the unusual step of posting security camera footage on its website.

It comes as the administration denies allegations an airport screener seized a toddler's cup and mistreated his mother.

At issue is whether Monica Emmerson, a former Secret Service officer, was improperly detained June 11 after she spilled water out of her child's cup at Washington's Reagan National Airport.

The regulation says no liquids! Period! It was a $2.00 sippy cup, toss it in the trash and say OOPS! Crazy fool. She should be added to the "NO FLY" list at least 2 years for being a stupid mom. I believe we should give her a break for being a former SS Officer or that would get her 5 years on the NFL.

What is it with people , there are two ways of looking at this, 1 the TSA needs to have just a touch of common sense.
And 2 so does this woman, when told she could empty the cup if she wanted to keep it then she could have either drank the water herself or just found a plant or gone to the bathroom and dumped it, then got some more water for her child after she had gone thru security, would that have been so hard. Now as for the TSA they have some people on the payroll who are on power trips and let their authority enflate their egos. While i'm not saying this is the case with this TSA agent, this seems to be the exception not the rule.
