There are no coincidences with corrupt government.
A friend of mine who worked in my plant, retired and got a job with the TSA at the St. Pete - Clearwater airport in Florida. His opinion of the employees is not very flattering. Basically, he says they are all low IQ, liberal idiots.
Of COURSE it’s not a coincidence...
If you cut the enemy infinite “benefit of the doubt,” he’ll eat you alive in small bites.
Warriors don’t grant “benefit of the doubt.”
Non-warriors get killed.
TSA = Too Stupid for Arbys.
The Administrative State has multiple methods of patting us down, every single day.
They went to a lot of trouble to form dhs. Now they are patting down / intruding their real enemies.. American citizens.
TSA has outlived its usefulness. They only go after Americans these days. They don’t fuss with illegal aliens and other foreigners. They might find a diaper full of crap they might have to change. They seem to think that it was Americans who destroyed the WTC. Until the dangerous foreigners started flooding into America, we never had to be searched and X-Rayed everywhere we went. Foreign crooks, thieves and murderers as well as the need for government jobs for minorities caused that BS to be “necessary”.
There is only one type of security to use - PROFILE! Look ‘em in the eye, question ‘em, ask them questions and if they fit the profile grill ‘em. I just went through Boston last month and I took off my sport coat and got yelled at. I wanted to put it in a gray tray. He asked me ‘why? YOU DON’T NEED TO TAKE YOUR COAT OFF!’ I have 2,000,000 frequent flier miles in my account and I have to deal with this big jerk. Sorry, every airport in America I have traveled in I have taken off my coat even with my TSA Precheck because I put my wallet and passport in it.
Thousands Standing Around.
Hopefully the GOP has learned its lesson.
I don’t know…mine was by a guy who I assumed got his jolly’s, I was irate!
The radicals are in full control of each and every three lettered agency.
Being rude to a politician can have dramatic consequences. We had auto inspections in Florida. The employees were universally rude, as if they all went to the same how-to-be-rude seminar. They were universally hated. One day the governor’s wife took their car in to have it inspected. They treated her like they treated everyone else. Two weeks later they were all fired, and we haven’t had inspections since.
What bothers me is that the government must have received thousands of complaints, and nothing was done. But be rude to someone who actually counts, well, that’s different. I’ve seen things like this play out a few times. Very annoying that we, the great unwashed masses, count for nothing.
Jethro Gibbs rule number 1: there’s no such thing as a coincidence.
It’s a piece of the Bush Cheney WOT bonanza that put the DC swamp on steroids with a high pork diet producing bulked up feral swamp pigs.
I totally support the abolishment of this ridiculous agency.
On some bad advice, I actually applied and worked there for a few months before quitting in disgust.
I went in on the promise of being able to work with the K9 handlers. Total bait and switch.
Entirely staffed by shiftless angry entitlement queens and leftists... the only exceptional moment was when I got to work with the K9 department and spent an entire day working with two of the cutest labs.
Orwellian nightmare. And you don’t even need a highschool degree to work there. Just a GED. Disgusting.
Honestly, I fly a lot less than he does, am a sr. citizen, and I’ve been pat down twice in the past couple of years and seem to get singled out for the hand swab more than most.
Get rid off this totally useless government monster agency. Do you know how many terrorists that they have found? ZERO
harassing American citizens at the airports while simultaneously allowing millions of illegals to enter at will
America 2024
Put that in the “what did you think was going to happen?” pile too. Not saying he’s wrong, but things always have a price.
Hey, Mike, how about when, as a flight crew member in the early 2000’s, I was subjected to a sexual assault by a corpulent female TSA swine. She actually made contact with my female private parts, pressed and lingered. How about when I was missing my flight due to a backup in security, the TSA bridge troll in Ca decided to smugly use me for ‘training’ a newhire and pulled me aside in my full flight attendant uniform. He pulled a slowdown, publicly going over every single item in my suitcase and flight bag as well as my female hygiene items in my pocketbook.
Why was I treated like a criminal when **I** would be the one on the plane if there were an incident due to something in MY bag when they could sit on their fat asses and just watch if something happened.
My senior thesis was on the absolute failure of TSA screenings - sometimes 100%- in US airports. The employment requirements were dropped from college degree to ‘some experience on the screening machines’. During my research, I came across a forum where TSA employees were discussing voting union and many were talking about acquiring disability so they wouldn’t have to work. This was maybe 20 yrs ago so maybe things have changed.
Privatize it and drop this department.
