The person who boarded the flight bypassed the document check podium and a gate agent, but was fully screened at a security checkpoint at JFK, a TSA spokesperson told ABC News. That means they weren’t carrying any prohibited items and did not pose a security risk, TSA said.
TSA showing they’re all security theater with this statement. Either they’re admitting that the document check podium isn’t necessary to identify security risks, or they’re trying to assure everyone that they’re enforcing security when they clearly aren’t.
Wait, they’re supposed to be providing security? I thought it was just an aggressively proactive colon / prostate cancer data collection agency.
Sometimes I just book a flight for the rectal abuse. Hookers don’t take miles for payment.
Maybe they had that pre check crap that lets you just skip it all
