I empathise with her, big time. Without audio recordings, her story will be hard to argue. I wouldn’t believe a thing a TSA agent said under oath.
Plus, even if she said what they say she said, a reasonable human being would understand it the way all of us here did.
Bottom line though, PMS is a bitch.
argue = argue with.
Her story is a good “plausible denial”. And if it IS what she said, it was a valid point.
Obtuse. What she did was illegal, as in illegal immigrant and there is zero doubt that she broke the law.
Your reasonable human still does understand the concept of written law doesn't he?
No man is above the law and no man is below it: nor do we ask any man's permission when we ask him to obey it.

But the judge will.
you are assuming the TSA agent will have an english translator in the courtroom....
(puts on fire proof suit)
I'm sure you would empathize, since you appear to be about as reasonable.
You're complaining about the TSA being liars, when they aren't even involved.
She showed up at the gate and was turned back by the Jet Blue employee working at the gate, not by anyone working for the TSA.
Plus, even if she said what they say she said, a reasonable human being would understand it the way all of us here did.
You people just don't get it. Airport employees are required to report such outbursts, especially when the word bomb was mentioned.
Authorities apparently didn't react fast enough to stop the plane from taking off in this case, but they don't have the leisure to properly investigate the incident before taking action.
The Jet Blue employee probably even thought that she was just throwing a fit which is why the plane was able to take off, but she still had to report the incident, and the FBI isn't likely to assume that she interpreted the woman's actions correctly with a plane full of people's lives at stake. By the time the investigate and determine that she was just being an idiot, the plane has already been forced to land and be searched.
Unfortunately, because of the real threat of terrorism we face, comments by idiots have to be taken as threats until those investigating them can assure themselves that they aren't real threats, and that takes time.
This should have been made really , really obvious to people who fly regularly by a considerable number of well publicized incidents. However, some people are so caught up in themselves, that they can't be bothered to think about the consequences of their actions.
