TSA

[XTR]

So I'm going through the line at TYS yesterday and I notice this series of signs all along the maze. Pictures of people in military uniform and then in TSA uniform with the caption underneath "Still Serving"

I saw the first one and thought it was maybe some guy local since the airport does share the runways with a TN air national guard refueling squadron, then I realized there were like a dozen of these things and some of the uniform pics were obviously older and it hit me... TSA is making the statement that military service is analogous to TSA. !WTF!

gimmeafukinbreak! Standing around an airport feeling up girls and taking away people's 3.4oz toothpaste is in no way shape or form even in the same f'ing universe as military service. I served, I spent 6 yrs in Uncles yacht club and I'll be damned if TSA has the right to compare themselves to us. That's bullshit!

I'll guarantee you that some life long government employee with not a minute of military service came up with that genius idea... Lets glorify this bunch of idiot smurfs.. All this I thought as I watched the line for security grow all the way to the front door of the airport, at which point one of TSA's finest started leisurely getting the 3rd security ready to open (never actually saw it operate in the 20 minutes I stood in line and I got there when the line was 1/3 what it was when I got through)

Hey Janet Napolitano, NO HOW, NO WAY NOT EVER, IS A TSA JOB IN ANY WAY SHAPE OR FORM EVEN IN THE SAME UNIVERSE WITH MILITARY SERVICE, ant to even begin to go down that road, much less put those stupid signs up shows just how little you know. [/rant]

Just the fact that the TSA exists pisses me off.

It looks like the posters are saying that some TSA employees formerly served in the military and now continue to serve their country as government employees.

It sounds like you would be surprised at how little some people do for and with their years of military service.

Re: TSA

TSA is just another expansion of a Govt that is already to large to sustain. Our Govt is our biggest threat to our national security.

Agreed. Part of the 47% for sure brought to us by Pres GWB. UBL is still porking our economy.
