A TSA screener working at JFK Airport in New York was arrested after launching a cup of hot coffee into the face of an airline pilot who asked her to stop swearing in the terminal.

Mr Trivett advised the screeners that they should “conduct themselves more professionally in uniform and not use profanity or the n-word,” Port Authority police sources said.

The screener, 30 year old Lateisha El, then reportedly shoved the pilot and hurled a full cup of hot coffee at his face.

Recent behavior on behalf of TSA agents ranges from running prostitution rings and using child pornography, to drunkenly firing guns and trashing hotel rooms. And that was just last week.

We’ve previously documented numerous examples where TSA agents have been caught committing crimes both on and off the job, from molesting children, to stealing, to kidnapping, to assault, to drug smuggling.

You could start the same thread about teachers, plumbers, lawyers, pastors and so on and so forth. Come on, have a little intellectual honesty.

Actually, it does.

You have to pass the first step which is, you don't have a criminal record of any kind, AT ALL, whatsoever.

You then have to take a test.

You then have to pass a credit check.

You then have to be invited for an assessment at your local airport which includes I believe a vision test and some interviews.

You then have to fill out a bunch of forms that ask every fricken personal question under the sun.

You then are investigated in a FULL back ground check, (since it IS Department of Homeland Security).

You are then, perhaps, invited to come in and go through another round of interviews.

If you manage to pass all of that, you become a member of the TSA.

What I want to know is how in the hell did some of these people make it through all of that?!
