Yes, another TSA bashing thread because there is a stupid TSA trick in the news just about once a month somewhere. Either training is massively ineffective or there are a lot of self-important TSA thugs. Theft from travellers by TSA agents is rampant. a LOT of people have been mistreated by the TSA and distrust them forever afterward. Mine is from when they tried to separate both parents from our 5 year old daughter. I got the entire Orlando screening operation shut down around me as I would not move away from my daughter when they tagged me for additional screening. Another time an agent decided to page through my passport and quiz me about my past travels. That's not your f'ing job. Your job is to confirm my identity. Now my blood pressure goes to unsafe levels every time I have to go through the line. And they don't always use the back of the hand or explain what they are going to do, not in my pat downs, nor my wife's.
