The TSA Sucks

A TSA agent whipped the braids of a Native American woman and yelled “Giddyup” during a security check at Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport, according to the woman and the federal Transportation Security Administration.
“Going through @TSA at @mspairport, the agent said she needed to pat down my braids. She pulled them behind my shoulders, laughed & said ‘giddyup!’ as she snapped my braids like reins,” Tara Houska wrote on Twitter on Monday.
“When I informed the middle-aged blonde woman who had casually used her authority to dehumanize and disrespect me, she said ‘Well it was just in fun, I’m sorry.
Giddyup!
As I’ve said so many times before, “The TSA is a federal jobs program for idiots, hicks, goobers, perverts, control freaks, and maladjusted anti-social types who cannot get work elsewhere.”

An activist attorney and a Ted Talk speaker?! What are the chances? AND a guest writer for Huffington Post? Wow. That’s a homerun. This almost seems like fake news, no offense to the author of this website.

This is the exact type that DHS wants as your jailers. Enjoy the destruction of America, you deserve it.

TSA = Thousands Standing Around.
Never found a terrorist, but still confiscate firearms mistakenly left in luggage. One wonders where those hundreds of firearms are today?
