Do yourself a favor and look up the word Goon. It perfectly describes the mindless, gungho, "just doing my job" "for your safety" "Don't like it? Tough!" BS attitude that permeates the TSA ranks. If the shoe fits....If it doesn't then don't.

This from The Merriam-Webster Dictionary:

goon - a man hired to terrorize or kill opponents.

Now I don't know about other screeners I've never terrorized a passenger much less killed one.
