TSA agents inexperienced and not properly trained? IMPOSSIBLE!

Just another case of the People vs. TSA... If TSA continues this trend I firmly believe that the government may second think even having them. They have FAR over reached their boundaries and are hurting the industry of air travel... rather than helping it.

People just don't want to go through this kind of thing... I mean... who would?!?!?!

They already are Lloyd. Follow the TSA's daily message. Last week and over the weekend they "wouldn't budge" from their BS pat-downs. Now they are open to modifying or changing the way they do things. That didn't take long!

What will they do to GA if there is a terrorist act associated with GA?

I also am a bladder cancer survivor with a urine bag, and I am apprehensive about will happen next time I go through security.

Sad to say, America is becoming like the boy who lives in the bubble. Afraid to go outside. There is such a thing as overkill and it is happening right now to every American citizen. Unfortunately, the government has targeted citizens traveling within their borders more than those coming from outside. Whats next, screening before you ride the bus or subway????

Did you all know TSA is over employed by 30,000 agents or aka T housands S tanding A round literally?! The government does not want to layoff these annoying people because of the high unemployment rate so we are left to pay their meal ticket. Oh wait whether the government lays them off or the start taking unemployment checks we still pick up their tab. Atleast I wouldnt have to pay for their health care if we kick em to the street...... yet.

Man Boi..... They are already planning to staff GA operations with these EXTRA agents ( see above ) and harass them with more "special security" screening. Wait til Warren Buffet gets a pat down then we will see heads rolling.

So it seems the terrorists set out to upset the way of life for North America. Do you think they have won?? The TSA and government are so concerned they may look bad they have totaly forgot about what and who we really are.

My dad flies for a backcountry flight service in central Idaho. During the hunting season part of the client cargo is rifles, archery, etc. Can you imagine what the TSA would do if they do become part of the GA security? Just look above and various other blogs, the TSA/Homeland Security truly does not care about losing the trust of its own citizens!!!

No word on any disciplinary action taken against the agent(s) responsible for humiliating this man?
IMO the agent(s) should have been fired immediately.
And in my world ,the victim of their sh!*%y treatment gets to pour a bag of Pee on them!

One day flipping hamburgers. The next day saving our lives??? What a freaking joke. Who ever developed the program that makes these idiots think they are important needs to be looked at very closely. He or they may be the issue??

TSA wouldn't have known the guy had a urine bag on him..accidents do happen..however I think a written apology should have been given to him by the TSA guy and the airport authority..and maybe a free ticket or two for his troubles.
