It is disgusting to watch 5 TSA agents wait at the elevator door to pat down an unsuspecting pilot while another TSA "officer" digs through their bags.

Im sorry but these people get under my skin and stuff like this makes me crazy. Anyone else ever see this?
They need to do these spot checks. Yes I know they are a pain in the arse but hey if they don't do them sooner or later someone is going to get the idea that they can get anything through there. Lets be honest there are people who are still trying to do us harm and random inspections do serve as a deterrent. And if you think all of the pilots out there are innocent and would never try brining anything through that they shouldn’t you’re only fooling yourself, and no I am not referring to nail clippers.
On a really unpopular note I am not a big fan of CrewPass either, it’s another weak point that people with bad intentions will try to exploit.
