So the word is that recently there has been a lot going on with Transportation Security Administration (TSA). People have been going crazy over the new security precautions and then people have been trying to smuggling all types of things around the security in airports. Currently TSA has received a lot of complaints that the workers aren't doing their jobs and are wrong ,but I feel that in some cases that is true but not in all.
"Just this past week in three separate incidents, our officers found the following prohibited items: (These are just a few of the many good catches from the past week) Orlando (MCO): A man attempted to bring a bag containing 3 pistols through the checkpoint. The bag contained a .25-caliber and .40-caliber semiautomatic and a .357-caliber revolver. Also in the bag were loose ammo and a loaded magazine. Orlando police arrested the passenger who was later released from the Orange County Jail on a $2,500.00 bond.Baltimore (BWI): Three throwing knives were found in a carry-on bag. There have been many “pointed” discussions about whether or not knives should be allowed on planes, but 3 throwing knives is a tad much… Police cited the passenger on a state charge. Atlanta (ATL): Inert grenades found in checked baggage. Maybe it’s just me, but when I travel I am cautious about what I pack or what is in my luggage. That’s apparently not the case for a lot of people out there. The number one reason is “I forgot that was in my bag.”All of the items I mentioned above are common finds. Just over the weekend alone, we found 10 firearms across the nation.This year alone, TSA Officers have found over 800 firearms in carry-on bags."(http://bossip.com/466377/flying-the-unfriendly-skies-tsa-reports-finding-over-800-guns-in-airport-security-checks-this-year30346/)
