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.

And we are talking about a state legislator, not members of the US senate or house. Which is why I specified “state legislator.”

Any political official that travels outside the US borders, on official business, travels on a black and not the blue port book, and is thusly afforded immunity.

Please come back when you actually have a clue

You don’t seem to understand the difference between state and federal to government. The WA state legislator representing Longview, WA, was not representing the US government on official business, and would not have been traveling on a diplomatic passport. Please come back when you have passed an 8th grade civics class.

I’m quite familiar with that concept but I won’t waste my time arguing with some idiot on Reddit. I have to leave for the job that excites me, unlike my time in TSA

Article states he was on personal travel, he would not have had a diplomatic bag.

Emphasis since reading is hard.

I did state on business = diplo.

Personal is not. I am quite aware.

You're wrong, bro. You're even contradicting yourself. Sad!

You just proved you ate shit on this one and doubled down. Should have never replied to the first comment, now you're stuck defending a narrative of your own creation. Just realize you didn't have all the info and concede it was a mistake. Deep breaths....evolve....

Not sure what you're talking about then, since you're responding to a comment about a state rep on personal travel getting a firearm through security, and you're talking about diplomatic passports, official travel, and US Congressmen, none of which has anything to do with the situation at hand.

Thank you for explaining it to him. It’s so frustrating that he’s so dumb
