I’m pretty sure people who work for TSA are in it for the groping and harassment, catching something every once in a while is just a cover
I once accidentally bought pepper spray I forgot was in my bag through TSA.
I’ve had ammo pass through before. TSA is useless.
TSA is not in a fun position.
They are literally dealing with “The Most Armed Nation … In The World.” /clarkson And that is not often given to them out loud as the reality of their working parameters. Statistically that gives them a magnified margin of error by sheer volume of gun owners in the USA to my mind.
That said I have been terrorized by some TSA operators and patted down in the Denver airport without being asked or given a chance to have privacy by a TSA in the middle of line.
So won’t you at least give the TSA a chance to go fuck themselves ?
I know this one… it’s because the TSA sucks and isn’t anything more than security theater.
What’s surreal is being in a security line that is so backed up that the TSA on duty decide to tell people to keep their shoes on, and they open up the old fashioned metal detector to supplement the body scanner just to get people through faster.
Straight up confirmation that none of what they do matters.
It’s also a slush fund pork-barrel for screening device manufacturers! (alwayshasbeen.meme)
you mean the devices that were stupid and no one wanted to buy because they were mostly useless, until suddenly 9/11 and the investors in the company Republicans demanded they be installed in every airport and bus station?
