As I'm sure you already know, the TSA is a bunch of bullshit.

Remember all that shit that got passed out to police departments about being a Ron Paul supporter makes you a terrorist? Well check out this link. Watch it, and be infuriated.

Since TSA is a gov't agency they must have made the best decision with our safety in mind.

My first thought was what is a reportable amount of cash? Last I heard it was $10,000.00
Even so 4500? Guess I'm glad I don't fly.

oh ,,and TSA ? they definatly need WAY MORE training.

DIA TSA: Please step aside sir, we need to wand you.
Me: I didn't set off the metal detector.
DIA TSA: I know. It's random.
WAND: *random beeps around my socks*
DIA TSA: I have to pat you down now.
Me: What? If my socks are setting it off, you got that thing turned up too high.
DIA TSA: It's not your socks. It's the rebar in the floor. But it went off so I have to pat you down now.
Me: Doesn't that mean you pat down everyone you wand?
DIA TSA: Yes.
Me: [Mad]

When airport gets busy, it is sometimes faster to become selectee.

Did you know that they now augment the pseudo-random selection process by behavioral profiling folks in the line?

One of their best and brightest hadn't learned how to whisper into his microphone yet, I overheard him choosing the guy in front of me for an "exaggerated yawn". This is at 615 in the fucking morning.

I will give COS credit for hiring a better crew than some other airports.
They fuck up my luggage EVERY TIME I fly. Last time I left a note in my luggage telling them to stay the hell out of my personal shit. They didn't take that very well.

That's good. Never thought of the note in the bag. I got on a plane to KC for deer season in MO and they held my luggage back because of a lock on the bag. Who knew? I was told they tried to call me over the intercom but I didn't answer. No shit. I was on the plane half way over Kansas probably. They shipped it on another flight with my lock cut and a note about why they did it. My thought was cut the lock, sniff my drawers or what ever and put it on my plane while I'm on it so we (bag & me) get there at the same time.

what are you worried about if you've got nothing to hide?

I guess "I'm worried that morons like you who are too stupid to get a real job will misinterpret in your feeble paranoid brains my clear answer" would be the wrong answer? Do they think a terrorist is going to answer the question "Oh, this money? It's for the Al Qaeda organization"

The quote that drives me crazy when people talk about TSA is "Well if it makes us safer than I'm all for it". The idea that any of the stupid questions these people ask make us safer is mind-bogglingly insane.
