It’s the busiest time for traveling in the US and the Government controlled police force known as the TSA is making news. According to a report by the General Accountability Office, the TSA spent $900 million over the last 5 years to train 3,000 ‘behavior detection officers.’ These ‘officers’ are ‘specially trained’ to screen ‘high-risk passengers based on behavioral indicators that indicate mal-intent.’ All that training has netted zero credible threats or arrests. Keep that in mind as head out to visit your loved ones this holiday.
