Can find no official verification of this and some 4 years later, we have no instances of burka-clad women taking down airplanes. And if burka-clad women were allowed to "breeze through" TSA security, I'm sure we would have hundreds of photos and articles about it by now and we wouldn't have to reference Glen Beck from 2010.
Now I'm a right-winger myself but I take exception to unfounded claims like this being bandied about as fact because it damages the conservative movement and our credibility. Makes us look like fools.
Since 9/11, we have had ZERO incidents of terrorism from airplanes leaving U.S. airports. I think this speaks well of U.S. airport security and the TSA.
Now is the TSA perfect? Of course not. Do they make mistakes? Of course they do. In one of the earlier articles you linked about the man with the colostomy bag who was driven to tears, he got an apology from the chief of the TSA and measures were taken to correct procedures going forward.
With hundreds of millions of airline passengers to screen every year, you are going to have some unfortunate incidents. The fact that you have to do a deep internet search to uncover some of them speaks to how seldom they are.
I've traveled by plane maybe 200 times since 9/11 and I have never had a bad incident other than the aggravation of standing in lines and having to take my shoes off and all that. Yes, it's inconvenient and yes, I now drive my car to trips of 200 miles or less where I used to fly. However, we no longer have instances of planes being hijacked and slammed into NYC skyscrapers.
BTW, no retort from you on trying to use the Canadian incident as an example of TSA not doing their job. That ruins your credibility with me. Did you think that I wasn't going to click-through on that link?
