…and I read Kaplan’s Warriors Of God: With the Mujahidin in Afghanistan all the way through my last airport experience and didn’t get probulated once, depriving me of a slam-dunk post topic and possible Instalanche. I feel kinda cheated, actually. I need to try harder next time…
Maybe I’m in the minority here, but I don’t see the TSA’s actions in this instance as out of line. A sticker referencing explosives is the same as verbally mentioning explosives, and we know what that brings. And you expect them to differentiate a kinda-subtle anti-“jihad” sticker from a pro-“jihad” sticker?
I wish they’d really “profile” more (like their Israeli equivalents) and I would feel somewhat safer if I could bring my pocket Glock 33 with me in the plane, but those are other issues…

I knew better than to click on that link. Typical barfcom. A great first post, followed by nine pages of idiotic commentary.

And now they’re unionized. If we’re lucky, they’ll immediately go on strike.
