And you know the rules are not being enforced, how?

I know the rules are not being enforced because this guy's meat, that wan't supposed to be touched, was ruined.

Do you know this person has not/will not be disciplined?

Even if discipline is forthcoming, that helps Mr. Williams how?

See post #39. Would you have them just pass packages with explosive residue through without further inspection? I suspect not.

The TSA is in a no win situation with a lot of people on this forum. Damned if they do. Damned if they don't.

I feel sorry for Mr. Williams, but this meat might have been packed at a hunting lodge where the box somehow came into contact with explosive residue that set off TSA's ETD machine.

Would you want to fly with a box, that tested positive for the presence of explosives, that TSA was afraid to physically inspect because there might be expensive meat inside?

Sorry, but if any other passenger's any damn package, computer or bag alarms the ETD machine while I'm in line, the TSA better investigate that alarm.

If some passenger goads the TSA into letting his baggage pass without being thoroughly, physically inspected after it tests positive for the presence of explosives trace and the TSA can't determine it was a false alarm any other way, I'M NOT GETTING ON THE PLANE, AMIGO.

I don't know about you, but I'm worth more than $28 per pound.
