Let me remind everyone of the statement to which I was responding:

TSA changes all the time. To be sure, sometimes TSA changes by imposing arbitrary restrictions and then relaxing those same restrictions, with reasoning that seems indefensible. So be it; let's talk about that and criticize that.

But let's not claim that TSA doesn't change. It changes all the time.

To be sure, much of TSA's PR problem is self-inflicted. But when we pile on at every opportunity, we show ourselves to be no better than they. TSA can point to the unfairness of the tactics (as it is doing now, complaining about the anonymous complaint of a disgruntled employee) as a distraction from the real issues at hand.
I have to disagree. TSA has used tactics that almost guarentee that the public has no voice in things TSA. That leaves the public to use means available which piling on is part of.

TSA is the problem, not the public.
