TSA now checking drinks...

[GhostTX]

...AFTER the secured checkpoint. WTH? Gonna sip my drink to see if it's "safe".

A video clip shot yesterday at Columbus Ohio Airport illustrates how the Transportation Security Administration has dreamed up a bizarre new way to waste time and taxpayer dollars – by testing drinks purchased by travelers for explosives inside the airport long after they have already passed security.

The footage shows TSA agents walking around a departure lounge asking to test passengers’ drinks for explosive residue with a swab they hold over the liquid.

“Now remember that this is inside the terminal, well beyond the security check and purchased inside the terminal…just people waiting to get on the plane,” writes the You Tube user who uploaded the video.

Hurry up and drink it and ask if they want to wait 20 minutes to test your piss.

I wonder (hypothetically speaking, of course ) what would happen if you told them "no", and drank the entire thing.
As far as telling you to "freeze", well, I'm pretty hard of hearing. So I might not hear that and just keep walking.
I normally dismiss Alex Jones as a tinfoil-hat wearing fear monger, that sensationalizes things for his own purposes. But this is worth spreading. I mean really, how is this even justifiable?
When (if) I fly in the future, I will "opt out". I will not "freeze". And I will drink my entire beverage unfettered that I purchased (at an inflated price) inside of the "secure area". As much of a pain in the ass as the private security that preceded the TSA were, they were 1,000,000 times better at what they did than these wastes of oxygen with over-inflated egos are.
FTTSA.

They will hem you up and take you aside. I got hassled awhile back for having a fair amount of cash on me. Damned near missed my flight

I bet you anything they are overstaffed and not even close to being productive. Instead of getting rid of people some nut stain probably came up with this brilliant idea of "checking" drinks to keep them busy.......
