        And 80% failure rate is a pretty big improvement over the 95% failure rate of a couple years ago. So, "MOST IMPROVED" to the @TSA!! YAY, I guess.

        An old adage. Locks only keep honest people honest. Security is only able to slow down the dishonest. With today's technology security cannot keep up.

        Never understood why airport security would take my lighter, put it in a ziplock bag (that I can open) and hand it back to me? I need to get into the airport ziplock bag business. Then retire. Lol.

        What a mammoth waste of money. Get rid of the TSA and Homeland Sec and use that money to rebuild bridges and sewers and pipes and schools, etc.

        As with every population of employees, there are good & bad. Yet how is it that the TSA attracts & hires so many bad ones? They’ve far exceeded their quota. It’s like they’re out on a work-release program.

        Well since the Republicans won't release any of the facts about how these tests were done I don't believe them. You cannot trust any word coming out of this Administration. They hinted at wanting to privatize the TSA in the past.
