TSA woes...

I found this very disappointing.

My GF is a hair dresser from Chicago and flew from Milwaukee to Phoenix a few days ago.
She had forgotten about the comb w/5" metal pick on the end and a straight razor in the bottom of her purse!

Well, yep she got through airport screening with 'em.
I told her to leave them behind or put them in her checked bags 'cause it won't happen a second time - We Hope...

Can you believe TSA employees?  Cry

If I am on a flight with 5 terrorists with hair picks and straight razors... I'll meet you at the front of the plane in a dog pile on the bad guys.  With all that carry on luggage, I'll find something to hit him with till I can get a hold of his razor holding arm.  

Some other red blooded American men BETTER back me up too!

Yes I can believe it.  I work with a TSA employee that works 40 ++ hours a week at TSA, then works another 24 hours a week at a different public safety job where he works nights and evenings.. That's WAY too much moonlighting, especially for a single person who isn't supporting a family.

He is often drosey and tired looking, I would think TSA would enforce a policy of how many hours a week he could moonlight, most companys limit moonlighting to only 8 hours a week.

I don't feel secure with the quick searches TSA performs and rarely fly now because of the
TSA mess.

Beware of Southwest Airlines, if there roofs aren't falling apart, they taxi almost twice as fast as other airlines!

If you really belive that, you are one sick dude. It's a job for crying out loud.
Maybe if you were doing it you'd get your jollies-I don't think a TSA employee gets his/hers that way.

You obviously haven't been keeping up with the news lately.

There was a you tube video that went viral where a TSA agent was doing a body search on a six year old.

And if you think that post was about me gettin' my "jollies" then you are the sick one my friend (no-one else drew that conclusion). uglystupid2

Solution is simple.
You may not board a commercial airline without a gun and a box cutter.
Bring your own or rent one from the vendors in the terminal.

Do you really want to hijack an aircraft whose passengers are armed to the teeth?
