The TSA Blog: TSA Week in Review – Stunningly Smart Disguise

“We’re not looking for drugs, but finding these nonmetallic items in areas where explosives could also be hidden is a testament that the technology works. “

Actually, it’s a testament to the fact that your current responsibilities take you far, far outside your mandate and that if you have time to do drugs bust you either aren’t spend your time focusing on national security or you are obsolete.

As an institution and government body the TSA is an embarrassment. People checking your bags without training for $10 an hour aren’t keeping you safe, they are keeping fear alive and sweeping up closer to an intrusive and illogical nanny state.
