The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) has been under persistent scrutiny over the years regarding their screening practices and policies since their enactment shortly after that tragic day in September of 2001. TSA has been accused of groping passengers, missing over 50% of weapons and stealing. Theft has been one of their bigger issues and even those thefts caught on surveillance cameras, the harshest punishment any of these employees faced was being fired.
It’s not entirely clear what the purpose of TSA is, at this point, as they’re completely broken. The wait times to get through airport security are topping out around 3 hours. Reportedly, and estimated 800 passengers have missed flights due to the long security lines and the American Airlines company is trying to pick up the slack by providing 100 stranded passengers cots to sleep on and advising earlier airport arrival times for all departing flights.
To hear what TSA Chief Peter V. Neffenger and Homeland Security Secretary, Jay Johnson, gave as an excuse, continue reading on the next page.
TSA WAIT LINES ARE AN ARTIFICIAL CREATION SO AMERICANS WILL TOLERATE THE $10 BILLION TAX INCREASE IN A SINGLE YEAR. I RECENTLY TRAVELED FROM THE MYRTLE BEACH AIRPORT WHICH HAS HAD 4 SECURITY LINES FOR MANY YEARS. 3 LINES WERE SHUT DOWN & EMPLOYEES SENT HOME; LEAVING ONLY 1 OPEN LINE. WE ARE SUPPOSED TO BELIEVE THAT THERE WERE NEVER EXCESSIVE WAIT LINES THEN SUDDENLY IN A SINGLE DAY THE WAITS MULTIPLY BY 10 FOLD OVER THE ENTIRE COUNTRY???????????? HOW STUPID DOES OUR GOVERNMENT THINK WE ARE????????????????
You heard the ruler…you all are travelling too much. …stop flying around…stay home peasants. …get with the program! !!!!!
This freak is nothing but an Obama puppet, and defiantly seems to oppose American values.
Do your damn job
You are a complete failure and you will suffer the same fate as everyone else in this treasonous administration.
…….so get rid of older, conservative, white people and we’ll solve most of the problem.
Liberals are so full of$#%&!@*….who elected these assholes? Destroying America!
What a lame excuse! Why not state the truth! TSA is a screw up operation.
Always the people’s fault. Nope incompetence plain and simple.
It’s not your job to pronounce judgment on the travel habits of Americans. It’s your job to accommodate them.
