I mean we did have 3,000 people die from airplanes being hijacked and flown into buildings - the TSA didn't exist before then. Unfortunately our gov't is like an overreacting immune system inflaming the entire body and causing unnecessary damage to functioning systems.

- idontpost 8y agoYou should try reading the link first. The TSA is not the issue under discussion. It's Customs and Border Patrol that's the issue.
- ad_hominem 8y agoYou should try reading the HN guidelines first that say not to accuse someone of not reading the article. Sometimes discussions can meander outside the original article's context.
