Passenger could be asked to give drink samples to TSA

Enviado há
 
Passengers say their problem is not with the rules at the airport. They understand why drinks are not allowed through security, but when they buy one while they wait for their flight, they say the TSA should not ask to test it. (www.kjct8.com) Mais...

What perplexes me is whenever any questional practice is debated, it is always the standard answer that they have multi-layers of security. To date they have not been able to prove they defeated a hijack/terrorist threat, in the boarding process. Dollars are in short supply, in this economy. When the public tries to help them spend their budget more effectively, they seem to get attitude. How many folks realize that TSA got approval to double the charge, per passenger, for security. If passengers continue to blindly accept ineffectual security measures, continued (apparently unlimited) increase in fees paid for this service, we could be signaling that similar activities could be instituted in other areas

You're right. ive traveled to australia many times, and they have no such bogus liquid rules for their domestic flights. I once put a six pack in my carryon, no big deal. And (knock on wood) last time i check, planes are still safe there.

just busy-work for the 50% overstaffing TSA "AGENTS" you see just standing around, texting, oogling the chicks, fighting with their girlfriends and generally just sucking up our tax $

It will probably get worse. TSA will become the new IRS. Without a boycott of the airlines we will never get rid of TSA.

Sure makes a good case for GA or non commercial if you can do it.

For sure. I don't want to penalize the good people that work for the airlines, but economic pressure usually gets things done. The constitutional argument don't cut it because we don't follow the constitution anymore.

I look for them to really expand their reach in times to come. I don't know if that VIPER program in Tennesee is still going or not but that got them on the highways, all in the name of "terrorism". I still fail to see how a veteran TN state trooper, all properly trained and certified law enforcement officer, can learn anything today about a terrorist from somebody flippin' burgers yesterday. IMHO

I'm afraid you're right. I can't remember TSA catching one true terrorist or goofy bomber yet. So if they do, the $ spent to catch the first one are going to be pretty big.lol

This is really easy. Buy sugary carbonated drink, shake vigorously while waiting, and hand over for testing. Let them find a few Coke "bombs" and see how they feel about it then.

Also, when was the last time a passenger asked to see identification and proof of employment from all the TSOs at the checkpoint? Call me childish, but I think it is time to hassle them a little bit.

I will not ever fly to or through the USA ever again, as I refuse to be subjected to this rubbish.

Could we actually see the TSA require a pre-board stool sample someday?
