Authorities: TSA agents rescued kidnapped woman at Miami airport
A woman who was beaten, kidnapped and brought to Miami International Airport by her assailants could have been forced to fly with them to New York, but two alert Transportation Security Administration agents noticed that something was wrong, authorities said.

i used to say TSA stood for a Thousand Standing Around. i stand corrected now, make that 998 standing around.
I honestly do not understand the almost religious fervor that folks have for railing the TSA. I fly every week and I have always found them to be professional and thorough in their duties.... Not a pleasant job but I think they do it well.
you think kidnappers will go back to court
Congrats to the TSA agents for finally doing something helpful and getting something right
Interesting. Perhaps after thanking them for saving her life she should sue them for profiling. I mean, if it weren't for TSA having to crotch grope every 3yr old they'd never have noticed that she was in trouble, right?
What in the world did you read that put that idea into your head? You must have read a different article than I.
Sorry for not being more specific.
"That's when the two TSA officers, who are trained to detect suspicious behavior that could be an indicator of a terrorist attack, used those skills to save the woman as she was about to go through the security checkpoint.
'The way that she was acting, we actually thought it was a case of an abduction because she looked very young,' Danielle said."
See... profiling. Somebody should sue for not being equally inspected.
[Oh, I'm being sarcastic here as well, by the way] :)

So you're saying the fact that she had bruising all over her face, that made it all right for them to save her. But because she was young, it wasn't...and they should not have stepped in to help her because that was profiling. Is that what you're saying? They should have let them pass through no matter how terrified this young woman appeared, no matter what message her expression was sending. Heaven forbid we should watch after our young? Mr. Padgett, your thinking is twisted.
Upon reflection, letting her pass through because she was young - seems to me THAT would also be profiling. I guess what you're saying is we aren't supposed to use our common sense and come to the aid of someone who looks as though they're in dire trouble. It's a world gone mad!
