Get rid of the TSA! They are nothing but useless security theater and not even very good security theater at that!

Info from the local Memphis news media:

The girl was coming home from St. Jude Children's Hospital and went to Memphis International Airport with her mother to take a flight home to Chattanooga. She's a cancer patient for crying out loud!

Oh well done. It really takes a lot for these morons, these apes, to outdo themselves, but they've certainly managed to do it here.

Regardless if the TSA trains its security officers better, the TSA still won't care if a situation like this happens again.

TSA is useless.

Bomb-sniffing dogs and drug-sniffing dogs would avoid the security theater and do a real job. I recall that a year or two back, bomb-sniffing dogs prevented another attack on Moscow's subway system and did so without violating anyone's rights (and this, under the neofascist Putin regime).

Now, in 2016:

:arrow: The Transportation Security Administration, meanwhile, is looking to buy privately trained dogs for the first time.

Demand grows for bomb-sniffing dogs
