In the spirit of Public Enemy...

TSA is a Joke.

In mid-shoe carnival (oops...watch out for those Tevas) yesterday at IND, the TSA screener didn't really appreciate my comment to the guy in line behind me (who was shaking his head at the stupidity of it all) that if airport screeners had been doing their job on the morning of 9/11 and prior, we wouldn't be dealing with this crap now.

Of course, it's heartening to see the same level of common sense being displayed regardless of the date. 9/11/01...knives are bad, boxcutters are fine (serious lack of common sense). 5/13/05...lighters are bad, 4 books of matches are fine. Give 'em high marks for consistency...

*EDIT*

What sucks worse than anything is that I want to support the government and the TSA and get better security. But anyone with a brain can see that's just not happening.
