The biggie here is that the TSA and DHS for that matter are nothing more than jackass reactions to 911 and make us more vulnerable at the end of the day - starting w/mindest. I didn't have much of a problem w/the Patriot act when implemented for it's intended use (catch foreigners hiding/using US AO). But the current admin seems to like it for different reasons...
As with many things we could accomplish what we need by better using the assets, units, agencies, etc on hand vice these bloated agencies...

My point exactly, iffin you ain't armed there's no reason to be showing them "creds".
