    Nah they’ll say the FBI, the IRS and if they frequently use airplanes they’ll say the TSA if they don’t they’ll have forgotten what they do.

      The most interesting thing about the TSA is the folks you see are usually GS-4 to GS-6. They only serve as security theater and don’t really do anything practical beyond the same security you get at a court house entrance. The real security are behind the scene monitoring the various cameras, scanners, and trackers. That’s where you’ll find the TSA employees that serve a real purpose and are paid well.

        Yeah, but think of all the people the bag checkers saved by making my art-student self throw away my drawing compass, because it had a small point on one end! No boo-boos on their watch, my friend!
