And that's not being sensational.

And its no accident either. A totalitarian state, which we are quickly turning into, only knows how to rule through fear and intimidation.

Half the TSA workers can barely speak English muchless exercise basic common sense. TSA hires the people that are not qualified to even work at McDonald's.

I seriously wonder about how easy it would be for Al Qaeda or Hezbollah to infiltrate TSA. That would be a nightmare. With the low standards im shocked it hasent already happened.

1. Does this list include all the Baggage Handlers because there are quite a few incidences where they pillage from the bags. (I don't have any links but could find some).
Case in point: This is what they "caught", how about all the bags they rifled through and never got caught?

2. If this kind of horrendous crime spree is committed by the TSA... I ask WHERE are the BackGround Checks for TSA AGents?

Yet another reason why these tugs with pensions need to be disbanded. Turn control back over to the airports and airline. They have a greater interest in making sure flying is safe that the federal government does.

The TSA agent needed to pay for the "Advanced Groping 101" class somehow. Education classes have skyrocketed in case you didn't know.

They do! They ask the candidate to turn around, they look at him/her front and back, from the ground up. Background check complete.

I wonder how many prospective TSA employees would walk out the door if they were groped and scanned like pasengers.
