    Default Do people working for the TSA have any common sense?

    After reading this article, I'm saying no. This is an absolute disgrace and clearly demonstrates an abuse of power.

    The Transportation Security Administration stood by its security officers Sunday after a Florida woman complained that her cancer-stricken, 95-year-old mother was patted down and forced to remove her adult diaper while going through security.

    I have yet to see anything the tsa has done to prevent any real crime
    Not one so called terrorist stopped, no hijackings stopped,no drug smuggling-or anything else stopped
    The only thing I've seen stopped IS there common sense
    Acomplete and utter waste of funds!!!
    If the .gov was realy concerned about spending this should be the top agencey on the chopping block!!!
    Yea i know-they provide jobs,but im sure theres a mall somwhere that'll hire em!!!

    That's not their purpose.

    The purpose of the TSA is to get Americans used to being treated like Soviets. First they were in airports, now they're coming to bus depots ... soon they will be showing up at large events like state fairs and concerts.

    Remember, just like the military, the TSA workers have superiors , policies and proceedures that they must obey and follow no matter how stupid they may be.
    Common sense has no place there.

    I read the title and just have to say that TSA has some of the most worthless employees on the planet. their behind the scenes people are usually very smart and educated people, but the ones on the front lines that the general public see are probably lucky to have a GED. I absolutely despise the TSA. From an insiders perspective they do damn near nothing. Just another way everyone has given up their rights to have a feel good about being safer.

    If a lot of these these people weren't employed by the .gov they would be living off welfare or worse. They do have some good people who needed a job, and they are restricted by the ridiculous restrictions placed upon them by the agency.

    Anyone who says they feel safer thanks to the TSA is being spoon fed a massive scoop of bullshit.
    All I have in this world is my balls and my word and I don't break em for no one.

    and the people that screw up always blame them instead of taking responsibility.

    My buddy works @ DIA as a baggage handler. He said that TSA is a 100% JOKE!!! While we, honest paying passengers, are required to submit to the most invasive searches, the Somali cleaning crews that are contracted to clean the planes at night once parked at the gates AREN'T SCREENED FOR SHIT!!! They could plant anything on any plane, bomb, gun, drugs, etc and nobody wouldn't know anything about it.

    TSA = 1 big f'ing joke

    They're the reason while I'll look into driving almost anywhere before flying these days.
