This only shows how silly the system is. No vetting, no interview, nothing. We are special snowflakes.

Re: Solution to TSA Long Lines
Politics aside, not all LTC/CCW folks are vetted. So it would be a nightmare to determine which state permits are valid and which are not. Same reasons cops cannot just flash their badge and pass through.rotor wrote:Long lines at the airports seem to be the big problem this summer. The government allows people to apply for pre-screening through various programs. Apparently these get you to a faster line that doesn't take as long to get through. When I was an active pilot I had to have a TSA pass to get to my plane which was on a secured airport but it wasn't usable at a commercial airport TSA checkin. Why not some legislation that gets LTC holders through the pre-screened line. They have already been vetted, they have photo ID and they can be rapidly screened to make sure they didn't forget their firearms on their body or carry on bags. Apparently we can enter the Capital building in Austin armed as long as we have an LTC. We ought to be able to get through a TSA line faster.
