Last time my wife and I took a flight, I got held up due to a flashlight in my carry on bag. The TSA goon clicked in on and off, took out the batteries and swabbed for something. Held me up for about 20 minutes. Meanwhile my wife had 2 pocket knives in her purse. They totally missed that. While on the plane, I found a butane lighter on the floor that some other TSA goon missed. TSA is a joke.
Our daughter and her one of her teammates found a razor blade on the plane when their college sports team flew to CA for a tournament.
When we flew with my elderly father and stepmother to Texas some years ago, she was stopped and wanded, searched, and forced to stand in the scanner with her arms out and raised. She had Alzheimer’s and was being pushed through the airport in a danged wheelchair!
