I really don't see a lot wrong with that. Yes it's quite silly that a child's doll must be scanned (cue the 'teddy bear gun' story), but it's just one of a number of silly things.

The girl was obviously tired and threw a tantrum. That's what children do . Don't see how CATSA screwed up, and using UGLY to describe it is just a tad histrionic I think.

Nobody's going to get fired over it. Over what ? Calm down.
