They confuse a diabetic child with a terrorist when visiting the Eiffel Tower

Samuel, a 14 -year -old boy, has been treated as a terrorist at the Eiffel Tower.Samuel suffers from type 1 diabetes, despite certifying the disease, the guards banned access.
The child was treated as a terrorist after suspecting the security guards of his bag to guadar the material with the glucose meter, insulin .... The family of five Austrian members was in tourism in the French capital.
A security guard was checking the family's backpacks in search of weapons and explosives when he located the glucose meter inside the pocket of one of the children, Samuel, 14, according to The Local.
In addition, you must carry an insulin patch on your arm."They have even damaged a sterile emergency syringe (the glucagon kit), which was still in the package," the child's mother has lamented.
Although Samuel's father showed the international medical card certifying the child's diabetes, it was not enough for the guards to allow access to the well -known tower.
After the terrorist attacks that have shaken France, the country has increased security measures.
"We do not want other sick children to experience a similar fact," said Samuel's mother, who has written a lawsuit to the Austrian embassy in Paris.
Already, do you know where the card is achieved? I remember 10 years ago that at the Paris airport they did not leave us up to the plane until the commander did not give his approval, for the syringes.But in moments of extreme surveillance there are cases like this ..., and feel very bad ..

How strong right?I thought it was a joke ... but what happens that in France there are no diabetics?
I went up to the tower 4 years ago, and they did not slap me .... people with this terrorism are very susceptible.
In my experience very well, we even went with an insulin microinfusora, the emergency package and the glucagon, zero problems both the airport and in the same tower.In fact it is one of the few countries that do not ask me of insulin microinfusora.They already know her and for the inputs they do not put special.
En 1922 descubrieron la insulina, en 1930 la insulina lenta. ¿Que c*** han hecho desde entonces?
@Sherpa41, I agree.And here the superdiabetic mantra clashes. We are not normal people.To start an insulin ball can be a mortal weapon.I do not tell you with insulin bomb, continuous meter, conventional therapy, glucagon and all the spare parts that we must carry in the backpack ...
Let's see but what is being a normal person?: D There are people who go with adrenaline x if a wasp. This is total ignorance and wasting time, making people who are doing a super vigilance and to prove it to a child ... it seems unfortunate to me. I have traveled a lot x Europe, another little in America and recently I have returned from two countries in Africa, and see that we have spent controls, in none I have cache or asked x insulin, dexcom or glucagon ...

Well, they have blacked me every time at the Miami airport.And they pass me through my hands, body and pump insulin some paper detectors of something ... I have already assumed it, it does not seem aggressive or anything.
I went to Paris last month and went up to the tower, pass the backpack through the scanner and without any problem, a penalty for the boy, hopefully it does not affect him psychologically
