Thanks to an alert reader, I see the Wall Street Journal is sitting up an taking notice about the TSA’s groping apes.
Sweet.
You tasted my venom on the subject here last week.
Also of note, it’s hard to find and not the best writing in the world — story suffers from political points, but the political points are good. Anyway, there’s a book called Black Arrow, and the high point of the book is a scene where a war vet with bad knees is humiliated by the no-class TSA brownshirts. He’s finally had enough, and he follows one into the terminal men’s room and, in a brilliantly written, gritty scene, the vet uses his bare hands to…give terminal a new meaning.
It’s heartwarming.

Is this another one of those Larry Craig parodies?
IMHO, flights where people carry lots of money would be safer because those are folks with no plans to die that day.
I like the term “mission creep”. Sort of a double entendre.
