I'm a clean cut white male, and I was singled out twice in the same airport for one flight pos 9/11, pre liquids restrictions. I had 3 bottles of local Idaho vodka, flying from Boise to Chicago. It would have been less annoying if it wasn't literally the same TSA agent that searched me both times, once at the general security in the terminal then secondly "randomly" at the gate. Same agent. Ostensibly looking for weapons. The agent told me as such. Seeing as it was the same agent that had already searched me, I was a bit glib. "Did you miss something the first time around?" Somehow I made my flight. Dude was a jackass.
- mynameisvlad 8y agoIf I wasn't in a hurry to get onto a flight (which you clearly were if you got searched at the gate), I'd have asked for a supervisor at that point, especially if it was the same agent who had already cleared you at the checkpoint. That's entirely unreasonable.
- lostlogin 8y agoThat would have guaranteed missing the flight.
- mynameisvlad 8y agoYes, which is why the first part of my sentence starts with “If I wasn’t in a hurry to get onto a flight”. I specifically pointed out that in other circumstances that would’ve been my course of action.
- dahlueblojen 8y agoThat's okay. Now they make most of lowely plebs that can't afford, or don't fly often enough to bother, a TSA-prescreen go through a machine that that pretty much reveals everything you'd only want a doctor or your partner to see to wonderful and highly trained TSA agent. Edit: guess y'all like showin your penis off to underqualified chud. Privacy matters. Fuck tsa.
