Letter in Baltimore Sun: TSA does more harm than good
An excellent letter to the editor by Sommer Gentry in The Baltimore Sun:
Sommer Gentry's Letter to the Editor of the Baltimore Sun:
TSA does more harm than good
12:00 p.m. EDT, April 17, 2012
The letter opens with:
Sommer Gentry's Letter to the Editor of the Baltimore Sun:

12:00 p.m. EDT, April 17, 2012
The letter opens with:
The Sun's recent article regarding security at Baltimore-Washington International Thurgood Marshall Airport("Seized at the gate," April 16) omitted the most important statistics about the Transportation Security Administration's performance. The TSA misses 70 percent or more of weapons in testing, the TSA let 17 known terrorists fly past its vaunted behavior detection officers on 24 separate occasions without catching even one, and the TSA let at least 800 guns and a clearly-labeled five-pound block of C4 onto planes last year.
^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ to you, Sommer Gentry!
