UPDATE on TSA Sippy-Cup story |
|
Edited on Sat Jun-16-07 09:53 PM by ChoralScholar
Remember the mother with the sippy cup who was 'harassed' by the TSA at Reagan National Airport? http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=389&topic_id=1113729&mesg_id=1113729Well, the TSA has posted video of the incident. There's no sound, but you decide if the story she told checks out: From the TSA Mythbusters site: http://www.tsa.gov/approach/mythbustersVideo #1: (2mins) http://www.tsa.gov/assets/wmv/dca_incident1.wmv Video #2: (11mins) http://www.tsa.gov/assets/wmv/dca_incident2.wmvThe incident report in PDF format: http://www.tsa.gov/assets/pdf/dca_incident_061107.pdf(Credit to Consumerist.com for the pic)

2. Apparently fairly recent. |
|
Discovery channel should sue the hell out of them and shut 'em down.

3. Talk about a WASTE of tax dollars. |
|
The visual SO clearly reveals this was just about a group of tin star wanna be gestapo thugs humiliating and harrassing a family. I hate what this country has become.

5. Funny how she OMITTED that one fact in the original story... |
|
That she was a SS agent, and had flashed her badge?
Add that to the video, and suddenly I don't think she's the one who was "in the right" here.

6. Here's the thing.. Air travel is a hassle these days..plain & simple |
|
and ANYONE with a TV knows by now that you cannot take ANYTHING onboard these days..
Smart remarks aimed at TSA people will get you nowhere..
I am just glad that in my lifetime, I was a ble to enjoy flights.. real silverware.. china dishes...real food..and even sat in the cockpit of a 747 en route to San Juan Puerto Rico..
Fashion shows in the aisles of Air Jamaica...
Kids got to make cockpit trips to watch the pilots fly the plane..
and comfy seats that did not kill your legs :)
