I think the real issue there was that his political grandstanding was a waste of resources much better applied elsewhere.
How long and how many screeners are taken from their screening job to report finding a persons stash? I'm not a consumer of cannabis, don't even know how to find any, but for personal use amounts I feel TSA can better spend their time elsewhere.
