name TSA agents as the ones who tackled the girl. Even if they did not engage in the actual violent act, they were directly responsible for NOT listening to a disabled person's caregiver and for escalating her distress AND involving cops.

They obviously have zero training in how to handle disabled people, and this is in direct violation of the Americans with Disabilities Act, no?
