After you read the article, look here to see a picture of the location:

The TSA is an organization. It doesn't get cancer. People do. In terms of the article, are you serious? The guy crossed the border illegally. There are streets like that all along the Canadian border and people KNOW they can't go there. There's not a fence all along the border. People just know the laws and that they can get in trouble for crossing the border.

Are you seriously defending someone for crossing into Canada illegally? He'd be crossing back illegally too and apparently has done this numerous times. This isn't something that is completely unknown to people who live in such a small distance from the border.

This is about as bad as the guy who complained that he couldn't board a plane with his library card.

Did you even think about this before you posted? At all?

I agree that this doesn't have anything to do with the TSA. They are both government agencies and that's it.........Assuming the story the guy told is true the chance that it will end badly for him is zero. Common sense will prevail.
Unless you're making posts about the TSA cancer I guess.
