When I was in the Newark airport I saw a family of towel heads taking photos of the NYC skyline from the huge window in the terminal.
I thought to myself, “wow that is a good picture”
After they left I put my bag down and grabbed my camera and also took a picture of my favorite city’s skyline. Just after I clicked a picture an arab looking TSA agent came to me and told me:
“No pictures allowed! Put that camera away and move on now and I’ll pretend I saw nothing.” he demanded.
I went through Newark with all my toiletries in my bag.
In Green Bay no less, they made me get rid of everything or put it in a plastic bag. When I asked why a plastic bag, they all looked at each other.
The TSA will have to explain why you could bring toiletries on a plane if you put them in plastic first when it will go in a toiletry bag anyway.
“’No pictures allowed! Put that camera away and move on now and I’ll pretend I saw nothing.’ he demanded.”
That’s why we pay them the big bucks. /s
