TSA is not on trial. TSA is a government agency that, time and again, has demonstrated incompetence, corruption, scientific and technolgoical ignorance, and contempt for the Constitution of the United States. TSA has wasted billions of dollars and contributed virtually nothing to the safety of commercial aviation. The three known terrorist attacks against US aviation since 9/11 were not detected, much less contravened, by TSA.

So, please -- spare me, "innocent until proven guilty." As I said, TSA is not on trial.
