"Williams Trophy" isn't a person, Scotty, it's a prize and they've given it to John Pistole.

I'm all in favor of a trophy running the TSA. Can't hurt to try.

It'd be no different that the other thousands of inanimate object standing around at the checkpoints. Just as round in the middle, too. I say it'd fit right in.

I wonder if they'll buy 1000's and then put them in a warehouse.

I'm glad that they finally admitted that the TSA pre-Pistole was not intelligence-based. Now if only they would admit it for the Pistole era...

Given John Pistole's predilection for looking at passengers nude and groping their genitals, perhaps the trophy is in the form of walnuts.

It's Pistole. Wouldn't raisins be more appropriate?
