TSA Continues to Fail Random Tests

Wednesday, July 11th, 2007 (No comments yet)
The TSA is failing more tests:
In one test, TSA inspectors hid the components of a fake bomb in carry-on luggage that also contained a bottle of water. The screeners at Albany International confiscated the water bottle but missed the bomb.
To which the TSA replied that the tests are unnaturally difficult and whine that it paints an "innacurate" picture of their work force. To which I wonder if the terrorists will not be so sneaky and mean as the TSA auditors. Perhaps they won't use every dirty trick. They wouldn't want the TSA to look bad after all.
Last October, the Star-Ledger newspaper of Newark, citing unnamed federal security officials, reported screeners at Newark Liberty International Airport flunked 20 of 22 tests, including failing to detect bombs and guns in luggage at checkpoints. The TSA responded to the report by launching an internal investigation in which federal employees were interrogated about whether they had leaked the results, the newspaper said.
That sounds like a perfect Bush-era response. "These statistics are horrible!" "Yeah, what should we do to fix them?" "Fix them!? We should cover them up!" Too bad the TSA doesn't get Nation Security as an excuse. (Thanks to The Consumerist for the link) Tags: ,
