Sometimes the easiest explanation is the most accurate. Just ask the poor, rural kidnapped/run-away bride or the poor, mother from CA that found the finger in her chilli at Wendys. Everyone hopped on those band wagons without looking at the evidence. I'm not saying the story is false, just that it needs a lot more explaining or evidence. Sorry to burst your TSA/FAM/GOVERNMENT hating bubble. If reality t.v. has taught us nothing else, it is that people will do or say anything for attention, good or bad. I'm sure the actual story was quite a bit more boring and needed some good comments showing the ogre of a screener threatening the poor, innocent, little lady. Would not have made print without it.
Have a great day all!
So the government's innocent until proven guilty in your book, but people aren't?
I think we have enough evidence and experience with TSA to believe that the story is at least possible, if not plausible.
