Incompetent TSA Allows Boxcutters on Airliner
A passenger managed to waltz past JFK's ramped-up security gantlet with three boxcutters in his carry-on luggage -- easily boarding an international flight while carrying the weapon of choice of the 9/11 hijackers, sources told The Post yesterday.

So, if according to the TSA there are so many on aircraft measures that would negate the use of a box cutter to high jack a plane, why does the traveling public still need to go through full body scanners (that have been shown not to show guns under clothing in testing)?

Just smoke and mirrors to cover their screw-up!

This happens every few minutes, it's just that it isn't discovered and/or the media doesn't find out about it. The TSA is totally ineffective at finding anything dangerous. Possibly one of the biggest wastes of taxpayer money in the history of this country.
But they do a great job at making sure your liquids are in a sealed plastic baggy and contain no more than 3.4oz.
I'm so glad these guys are "professionals."

3 Hours???? Uh, how did that help? Bust the offender and let the airplane take off without him/them...Sheesh, gimme a break...
Yeah, looks like TSA is paying attention....Too busy feeling up Granny and checking shoes and baggies..
