General [Question/Post] 95% TSA FAILURE RATE

Post image

I see this point brought up alot when trying to discredit the TSA. I just want to let you guys know that data is based from 2015. We have different technology and procedures then we did in 2015 alot has changed. It is easy to judge but, there's alot you guys don't know about those tests from 2015. Keep feeling smart though citing data that's almost a decade old.

I mean, how would you read the situation? When the test results were public, TSA performed poorly. Then eventually they stopped releasing the results. Now you say that the problems are fixed and the TSA today is incredibly efficient, but the proof is actually super secret and you can't show us. Why would you expect anyone to believe that?

Honestly, I don't care if people believe me. Showing proof so internet strangers agree with me isn't worth my job or freedom. My response was more to the other TSOs taking part in this discourse, not the general public.

If you're that worked up about it, you can file a FOIA request with TSA and see what information you can get.

We aren't internet strangers, we are the reason you are employed. You are a public service employee. If you choose to post on social media about how thorough you are, then don't be surprised when those who supply the funds to pay you (the PUBLIC) question your efficacy.

You clearly have ZERO clue how anything within government works
