4. It's all fake security, anyway

If the TSA had caught anyone for real, the Right Wing would trumpet the news for months to prove we need to tighten the police state.

It's all a sham to divert money to Republican-owned security firms.

I hate flying today because of this nonsense and I'll only fly if the destination exceeds 1,000 miles. Otherwise, I'll drive or take a train.

By the way, the airlines themselves are no better, in my view.
