Leave Your Laptop in Your Bag « LewRockwell.com Blog

Leave Your Laptop in Your Bag « LewRockwell.com Blog: " the traveler in front of me left his laptop in his bag. I have no idea why laptops must be removed from their bags, nor do I really care because every TSA rule is arbitrary and pointless to discuss.


But why did it delay all of the travelers behind this gentleman 10 minutes? Because TSA welfare cretins must follow the rules, just like the Soviets in Gary North's story. The person examining the bags going through cannot inspect the bag that he flagged for review. He cannot use discretion and allow it to pass (after all, if prudent judgment was his strength, he wouldn't be working for TSA.) The officer has to yell "bag check!" and wait for a supervisor to come over. And wait. And wait. And wait."
