Quoted:
To OBLIVION:
Sorry, but the TSA idiots lost my vote when they forced a young mother to drink her own breast milk to prove the liquid in her bottle was not explosive. (This was verified a couple of years ago, so don't deny it).
You can argue your points all you want, but the poll results are against you here.
Not going to argue the event, it indeed happened.
The thing is TSA is a very young agency that is constantly refining its methods and trying to weed out the idiots like the ones who where involved in that incident.
Im certain that today any TSO that was caught forceing a passanger to sample an item in their bag to prove its authenticity would be terminated or at the very least formally reprimanded.
TSA was thrown together very quickly and thus had a shit ton of flaws. Over the years they have been trying to correct those flaws and repair the damage done in past years.
The past is the past. But don't we all learn from our mistakes and move forward?
I believe that is what TSA has been trying to do.
