nsplayr Posted July 2, 2018 Posted July 2, 2018 Can confirm. Was instructed to place a banana in its own bin for scanning going through Pensacola a couple months back. And I have pre-check and showed military ID. It was baffling. Folks, if I wanted to use an airplane as a weapon, and I have a lot of training on how to do exactly that, x-raying my banana separately from the rest of my stuff ain’t gonna stop me. FFS TSA it’s the “ultimate one guy shits his pants and now we all have to wear diapers forever” scenario.

The TSA is committed. “We’re not gonna fall for a banana in the tailpipe”. I know I feel safer. 🙄 https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=K7APP2z1yqU

dream big Posted July 4, 2018 Posted July 4, 2018 My preworkout triggered an explosive warning on one of their machines. Caused a huge fuss and almost caused me to miss the flight. Clowns.

Says the Nav who supports even more stricter gun control laws--welcome to that big government that you love so much! 3 3

I bet people in line were giving you the stink eye thinking, "Nice try terrorist, especially with your protein powder in a carry on."

08Dawg Posted July 8, 2018 Posted July 8, 2018 I truly thoroughly despise the TSA....nothing but a goon squad and jobs program. 1

HarleyQuinn Posted July 8, 2018 Author Posted July 8, 2018 9 hours ago, HeloDude said: What was your response? Probably because we all are required to have a background check completed to join the military period. A vast majority of people in all branches have a Secret or Top Secret clearance. Makes sense for those clearances to give you TSA pre check access.

But to your point, then why make military members go through a metal detector, check their bags, etc?

ThreeHoler Posted July 8, 2018 Posted July 8, 2018 The clearance doesn’t give you PreCheck. The federal background investigation does. Otherwise you just pay the $100/5 year fee to get it...to pay for the background check.
