even Morrissey complained about the TSA

In 2018, 4,239 firearms were found in carry-on bags at 249 airport checkpoints in this country. Almost 86% were loaded. I assume other objects, such as knives, deemed to be life-threatening were also found and confiscated.

As I've said before in this thread, yes, the checks at airport security are a pain in the ass but I don't mind the delay at all if it means better safety. If the delay REALLY bothers you, pay the money to get Global Entry which puts you is the TSA pre-check line and speeds you through the process.
