It's interesting that the 'redress' process is so deliberately difficult.

#1 - 'Discrimination'? Since when is confiscation of medical supplies considered, in and of itself, 'discrimination'? It was a strict application of a zero-tolerance rule against some substances that appeared (to several layers of TSA) to conflict with and over-ride any medical exemption.

#4 - What exactly does 'disability-related basis' mean? I am not disabled in the ordinary (ADA) sense of the word. How do I prove the 'disability-related basis'? Prove that I collapsed because TSA took my pills and I didn't have one when I needed it? Provide statements from my physician detailing my private medical history, a medical history that TSA already deemed irrelevant at the checkpoint?

Brother.
