Had a TSA Officer as a patient today in the ER and while stitching up his hand we made small chit chat about this and that and Airport Security did come up at one point and this individual said he personally felt that Pre Level of Screening is probably good enough for the majority of travelers.

I didn't really press him as it seemed inappropriate to do so while I was stitching him up and more over he really does not make policy decision, so no amount of complaining on my part would have done a bit of good. Though, it was interesting to hear a TSA Employee say basically the same thing we have said here.

The Gentleman seemed nice enough and we both chuckled about the "yellers" who feel the need to yell at the checkpoint, he felt all the yelling did was serve to annoy the Passengers and his/her fellow Employees. I asked why some yell and said probably out of frustration due to having to say the same thing over and over and seemingly not many people listening, though he did say that WAS NOT AN EXCUSE.
