This is a truly amazing story of our tax dollars at work …
In case you missed the headlines, the TSA’s Inspector General dispatched an audit team to try to sneak simulated bombs and guns past the crack TSA teams at several high traffic airports.

John Tyner, 31, said he was told he could face a civil lawsuit and a $10,000 fine for leaving the screening area before the security check was complete.
“It seems like it struck a chord,” said Tyner, a software engineer from Oceanside, California
