So the director of the TSA thinks the TSA agents who offended John Tyner "did a good job." Apparently that includes the part where the agents provided Mr Tyner with two different contradictory directions. But hey, it's the TSA.
In a related comment the TSA thinks whole body scans are not unreasonable search noting that since they are done for a good reason, ie. security, they are therefore reasonable! Someone ought to have the TSA read a first year law book. Good intentions do not make a search legally reasonable as the courts have held on many occasions.
Common sense wonders why we continue to allow the TSA to grow and grow and grow while assuming more and more powers that contravene well established law.
With a nod to Thomas Paine, Baron d'Holbach, and "Captain Obvious" perspectives on what should be, but remarkably often isn't, obvious common sense.
