'Tard bar set to new low.
QUOTE
The TSA today posted a statement from Homeland Security Director Jeh Johnson describing the new policy, which is intended to reduce the risk that explosives disguised as electronic devices will make it onto aircraft.

Which is another way of saying, "We can't detect shit."

So bring your charger to the airport, because if your battery dies you might have to throw away your laptop/phone/pad/very expensive device of choice.

TSA Agent: Turn it on
Person: Ok, there see, it works.
TSA Agent: Looks broken to me.
Person: No, seriously, it's fine (swipes across screens, opens app)
TSA Agent: Yep, we'll have to take that one.
Person: What? But, I'm opening apps!
TSA Agent: Are you yelling at me?  WE'VE GOT A DISRULY ONE!

TSA needs more geography funding.  Anyone who supports that agency or its parent agency is mentally deficient.

Is it worse that we're producing high school graduates that don't know that, or that the TSA is hiring them?

High school grads have the defense of "I'm only 18."  TSA agents lack the professionalism and competence of most middle schoolers when they act as crossing guards for the elementary students.  They have no such excuse.  They are infinitely worse.  It is a felony not to obey them.  I have zero sympathy for any issues they counter on the job related to people giving them no respect.  They don't fucking deserve any.  They deserve to be mocked and berated.

Another reason to love the TSA.
QUOTE
As they note, if you flew round trip with a 4+ hour layover in Chicago, Las Vegas, or Dallas both ways, your TSA fee would be $22.40.

Now it's getting into blatant robbery.

San Jose airport spokeswoman Rosemary Barnes told the Mercury News on Tuesday ... the Transportation Security Administration and Southwest were reviewing how Hartman was able to board the flight.

I wonder how a mentally ill women was able to get past the fed's finest.
