TSA Blog Year in Review: 2013 [Terrorist barf alert]

[upchuck]

Every day, Transportation Security Officers interact with nearly two million travelers across the United States with a single goal in mind – ensuring the safety of the traveling public.

TSA had a busy year in 2013, screening 638,705,790 passengers in 2013 (over 1,700,000 per day), which is  1,123,668 more passengers than last year. 

Sadly, this year marked the first incident where a TSA officer, Gerardo I. Hernandez, was killed in the line of duty at Los Angeles International Airport.  

In many ways, Transportation Security Officers are the public face of our nation’s security. It is difficult work, requiring patience, stamina, and great attention to detail. It requires extensive training and constant vigilance. This year’s tragic incident reminds us that being on the frontline also comes with a great risk. It is a risk that the men and women of TSA undertake willingly knowing that in doing so they are serving a higher cause, and a noble one – protecting the men and women of the United States every day.

Strangely missing: the number of terrorists created or captured by the sado-masochists of the TSA.

From the article:

Are they saying that with pride?

Y'all feel free to post pics of them performing their, "difficult work, requiring patience, stamina, and great attention to detail."

Propaganda from Blogger Bob?

Pathetic they are called “officers.” All that is required is a pulse, barely, and a willingness to feel up strangers. I don’t know how they sleep at night knowing they are the most despised people. Anyone who flies is considered a criminal. Rediculous shows of grandmothers are staged to not hurt Muslim sensibilities.
