The uphold all great values and safety and security for all. They keep Sharp knives out of the airport.
😛
But let a wooden stake through. :blink:
I thought the GOVT looked after the special challenged:
Screeners chasing down her mentally challenged kids because they started running down the concourse because the initial screener came at her with a wand scaring the kid off...
TOO MUCH POWER:
Goofs working for TSA have about as much training, experience and thought processes as a burger flipper (and they get paid about as much). They let the real thing slip by time and time again ("tests" done by news organizations, and the govt.) yet they'll bring an entire airport to a standstill because of someone left a Taco Bell bag by a pay phone. B)
NO FLY LIST:
If your own it.. IT takes an ACT of Congress to get off of it.
TSA Opening your bags:
Anchorage to Nashville. Going through security she identified herself as a professional photographer and politely requested a hand inspection of her medium format camera and forty plus rolls of 120 format film. She stopped the inspection when she saw the TSA employee ripping open her foil-sealed rolls of Fujifilm prior to wanding them for trace chemical sniffing. She was told that this was now standard operating procedure as per a new bulky TSA manual that was just delivered yesterday to Anchorage International Airport. The inspector stated that all film that was not 35mm in see-through plastic containers had to be opened. Randi explained that the manufacturer's foil packaging protecting the individual rolls keeps the film clean, light tight and dry over a long trip.
How they treat CREW:
virtue of searching for explosives in my shoes, or removing my nail clippers after a thorough search of my bag. Or even better yet taking all your stuff out of your bag in front of your other crew members.
Being told you dont get a private Screening area....
CAPPS II THE FUTURE OF THE TSA::: Its in place
The CAPPS II system will use extensive data mining of credit history and criminal records, as well as travel patterns routinely collected by the airlines. As if this wasn't bad enough, NASA has even proposed developing "noninvasive" neuroelectric sensors, or brain scans, for use at the screening points to see if people are having "suspicious thoughts".
As laughable as that may sound, it is a premonition of the future to come if we do not stop it now. The TSA promises that all of this info will not be misused and only given out to those with a "need to know". What the TSA is not telling you is that they reserve the right to give out the info to just about anyone they deem necessary.
I have serious difficulty with what is called "routine use of records in the system". As it stands now, TSA may "routinely" disclose information from the system to:" Federal, State and Local agencies responsible for investigating or prosecuting the violations of a statute, rule, regulation, order, or license, where TSA becomes aware of an indication of a violation or potential violation of civil or criminal law or regulation." (2) So, the TSA may have some INDICATION that there may be some POTENTIAL for you to break a CIVIL law and they may have the authorities meet you at your destination. In other words...didn't pay that parking ticket? Late on your child support? Pull the label off your mattress? Have suspicious brain waves going through the screening point? You may be in for quite a day at "Airport Jail".
TSA is able to do with YOUR private information. They may deem it necessary to give out to: "Contractors, grantees, experts, consultants, agents and other non-federal employees performing or working on a contract, or other assignment from the Federal government."
They can give out your personal information to the NEWS MEDIA !!! "In accordance with the guidelines which relate to civil and criminal proceedings
TSA
Five surgeons are discussing who was the best patients to operate on.
The first surgeon says, "I like to see accountants on my operating table because when you open them up, everything inside is numbered."
The second responds, "Yeah, but you should try electricians! Everything inside them is color coded."
The third surgeon says, "No, I really think librarians are the best; everything inside them is in alphabetical order."
The fourth surgeon chimes in: "You know, I like construction workers. Those guys always understand when you have a few parts left over at the end, and when the job takes longer than you said it would."
But the fifth surgeon shut them all up when he observed: "You're all wrong. TSA supervisors, screening managers and FSD's are the easiest to operate on. There's no guts, no heart, no balls, no brains and no spine, and the head and the ass are interchangeable!"
TSA IN my thoughts:
