On a flight last week I overheard the TSA agent joke about the "torture" procedure he was about to inflict on my son when he opted out of a body scan. I don't find anything about the TSA to be humorous.
- sounds 15y agoBut remember! If you joke about carrying a weapon, about violence, or anything the TSA does not like... Immediate grounds for (at best) a thorough pat-down. Or being added to a no-fly list. Or being tossed out of airport security. Or being detained away from your family.

Talk about hypocrisy.
