I travel for my job. I hit TSA approximately 6 plus times in a week. The system is a joke. It looks great don't get me wrong, but its all show. When it really counts like situations such as these, the TSA buffoons
blunder into oblivion. It is a complete power trip for most of the uneducated monkeys doing this job. I have passed through a security check in a MAJOR NY airport, to wake the TSA agent up, to ask if he wanted to screen me.... No joke... Granted I was in a pilots uniform, and it is a less used checkpoint, but it is still a checkpoint... I suggest firing at least HALF of these jokes, let them take their pretty new badges home with them, but fire HALF. Train the others to do the job, and when they fail a check, like passing a weapon through, FIRE THEM. Do not continue to just say OOPS we messed up. Terminate them. Hire a new monkey that can be trained.....
