The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) wants it to be clear that it is not the “Airport Security Administration.”
These days, special teams of TSA officials can be seen appearing randomly at the country’s train stations, bus depots and ferry launches. Twenty-five “viper” (Visible Intermodal Prevention and Response) teams have made 9,300 unannounced visits at various transportation centers around the U.S. These included testing passenger bags for explosive residue at a Greyhound station in Orlando, Florida; inspecting trucks at weigh stations in Tennessee; checking passengers of cruise ships in the Carolinas; and inspecting spectators at NASCAR races and tourists boarding ferries in North Carolina.
Just watched a video about a world traveler. This country is the most anal when it comes to security.

In a country that says it's the best in the world, the most free, blah blah blah, it's actually the worse.
And then you have morons encouraging them to be MORE INTRUSIVE.
They never caught a rabbit and they ain't no friend of mine.
Worse than living in Israel... Think about that.
