Do you think TSA went too far when they detained a pregnant teen because her purse had a design of a handgun on it?

The Transportation Security Administration caused a pregnant teen to miss her flight because they were concerned that her purse had a design of a gun on it - apparently a federal offence.

Too far, or within rights?

Answer #1

I think they over read things all the time. They always want to make SOME sort of drama

Answer #2

I think that these officials need to come to South Africa and deal with some real crime. It sounds like they are really and truly bored over there.

Answer #3

Hmmm….do I want to make points with the company who hired me for this job… by having to detain a person carrying the real thing…or prove my worth confronting someone who poses less of a threat but suggests the same thing?

Answer #4

I agree with Irene, they’re just looking for things to make a big deal of.
