What I’m getting from the responses to this post is that everyone is getting checked and everyone resents it, nobody knows why they’re checked and every decent innocent individual can only conclude it’s due to prejudice.
Sounds like the TSA are nailing it.
- zach43 8y agoUnder this defintion of 'nailing it', it there any way in which the TSA are not 'nailing it'? Even if the TSA were carrying out a highy biased and ineffective program, you'd just see a small proportion of the majority being searched, a large proportion of minorities being searched, and then conclude that they're 'nailing it' because the numeric magnitude of people being searched is high... Of course, in real-world tests of the TSA's usefulness they have been found to be quite ineffectual [0], [1]...so why even make weird justifications for them like this?
