The TSA at work
Wow:
You probably learned the 50 United States in elementary school— but don’t forget about the nation’s capital. An Orlando Transportation Safety Administration agent apparently needed a geography refresher after refusing to let a D.C. man through a security checkpoint last weekend because he didn’t recognize his District of Columbia driver’s license as a valid form of identification.
Justin Gray was flying home to D.C. from Orlando International Airport when according wftv.com, a TSA agent asked to see Gray’s passport because his D.C. driver’s license wasn’t a valid form of identification. Gray works as a reporter in Cox Media Group’s Washington bureau.
He probably thought it was one of those 57 states.

If it was one of the 57 states he should have accepted the driver’s license.
I’m going with he is a grade school dropout who thinks Washington D.C. is in Washington State, hence District of Columbia must be someplace else. Maybe in Columbia.

Well, I for one have never considered Washington to be a apart of America. Fantasyland, yes, America, no.

Exactly the guy you want to piss off with your ignorance.

Well, at least he will report that.

At least he wasn’t trying to vote: http://newsbusters.org/blogs/ken-shepherd/2014/07/11/msnbccom-perplexed-you-cant-vote-texas-using-out-state-drivers-license
