There is a big difference between safety and security. TSA has nothing to do with safety. They should be looking after security, but the wat they go about it, very little is added to airport security by TSA.

Frankly that TSA agent was doing his job. He has to be strong about safety. I'm amazed that an airline employee could explain away what this agent thought was a safety violation. Good for you.</font>
