There is just not much honesty connected with the TSA and that is what people hate about it. This government agency tells the public that it hires people only after they have had full back ground checks, which we find out is not true.

They hire people who steal millions and millions of dollars worth of other people's goods from them.

They hire people that constantly lie to the general public.

They hire people that threaten the flying public.

They hire people who purposely intimidate people going through security with asking them if they want to fly that day and bark and scream orders at them.

They also hire management all the way up the ladder that lies to us.

They make up regulations that have nothing to do with safety.

They bully people with arrest for carrying money and ask the flying public questions that they have no business asking and have nothing to do with safety on a plane.

They pretend to plant drugs in someon's luggage.

They see nothing wrong with looking at their granny's, mom's, baby sisters and brothers naked in a strip search machine.

They make new rules after the horse has been let out of the barn.

They deny any wrongdoing with anything even when there is proof that they are at fault.

There is no TSA consistency throughout American airports and then they say it's to throw the bad guys off. I think it has more to do with flunkies who can't memorize anything correctly and make up what ever they feel like for self importance and power.

They also make up new "layers of security" du jour.

WHAT IS THERE TO TRUST ABOUT THIS AGENCY?

I am sure I have missed many things. Please feel free to make any additions I have missed. I haven't looked at Youtube video's in a long time, so today I was looking at some TSA video's to catch up. What an eye opener it was to see quite a few things on the major news stations that were on Youtube.

The one that really got me was the one where they detained a man for carrying $4700.00 in cash, threatened him with the FBI, DEA and arrest because he wouldn't answer where he got the money and what he did for work. Little did they know he was recording the whole thing and it ended up on CNN and other major news networks. We, the public found out about this one, but what are we not finding out about that they are pulling?

You (TSA) want to act in these disgusting, threatening and extremely scary ways. Then you have the audacity to play the blame game saying that just because you are a government agency that people hate you. WOW, is this kind of thinking coming from the top and trickling down or do TSO's think these things up all by themselves?

The TSA has no one to blame but themselves. They created their own monster and have no idea how to back peddle this one.

Instead of spending millions of dollars on those ridiculous looking uniforms and badges that mean nothing, perhaps they should think about hiring the best PR firm money can buy, follow the campaign that this PR firm sets up and stop behaving like Natzie's so that someday the American public can feel the trust that they should.
