The head of a union representing 45,000 Transportation Security Administration officers says a report conducted by the TSA after a Los Angeles airport shooting last fall doesn't go far enough in addressing threats posed by individuals targeting its officers. The Transportation Security Administration recommended Wednesday that airports post armed law enforcement officers at security checkpoints and ticket counters during peak hours.

Then we can begin phase 2.
TSA UNION: AGENCY NEEDS ITS OWN ARMED OFFICERS

Of course they do. Now they can molest children and feel up Grandma at the point of a gun.
How many TSA officers have been shot since 9-12-2001?
Just what we need. Untrained wannabe SEALs with guns. /sarc
You KNEW this was coming...
Armed Airport police do just fine. We don’t need another armed Federal Force.
“You VILL be groped und you VILL like it!”
And how many will be shot by themselves or their fellow luggage gropers after they get guns?
Literally... "Bush's Fault".
Your Choice: Either elect frothing unitasker anti-abortionists or want to label record albums or want to legislate zero tolerance policies for pop tarts chewed to look like guns... or elect representatives that understand the fundamental liberties and States' rights provided in the US constitution.
Rejecting a fascist police state is our obligation.
Incremental fascism. “Really, these booger eating morons are only to make a standard airport screening process, not be armed or anything.”
Not only that, they need their very own SWAT. That way, the mouth-breather, lip-movers the TSA hires can look at SWAT Magazines and catalogs during their breaks. Plus the full Black Kevlar rigs will look great on the TSA porkers ... especially the alleged females. Armed TSA? What could possibly go wrong. It's not as if they will pistol-whip 87 year-old Granma Sorensen from Minnesota while they let Achmed the Bomb-Maker in his C-4 underwear through, is it?
The TSA cannot have firearms and must be stopped from performing (ongoing) inspections all around the country. If nothing is done about this lawless Federal activity, TSA will fully become the Federal brown-shirts, that Obama talked about.
O promised to make political police (DHS) as strong as USA military. This is why they continue to shrink USArmy and talk about doing away with USAirForce. USAF is the primary military force defending USA. Our DC based USG has transferred hundreds of military Armored Cars to _law_enforcement_ agencies at all levels around USA.
It is bad enough we give the gropers a pass, now they want guns!
So the TSA must be armed to protect itself from TSA attacks?
How about they just disband, that will keep them safe.
The TSA: Obama's NEW jack-booted thug force.
