I ask again, exactly what do you think yelling at, and insulting the TSA agent will accomplish???

More than going home and writing polite letters. If just writing letters worked we wouldnt' have most of the bad laws we have now. Probably even be rid of TSA/ATF/others by now.

And your solution would be?

Same as hiring someone to drive you... his ride, his rules. Don't like it, hire somebody else. Can't do that with planes, Fed gov took that away from the airlines long ago. Time to bring it back and have choices.

I don't know why people get freaked out thinking airplanes are special. Chance of a plane crash is very low, chance of it being caused by terrorists is even lower. Its more dangerous to drive to the store but we don't demand TSA security there.

Take the job, you take everthing that comes eith it.
