A man accidentally brought his loaded .40 caliber gun onto an airplane. He didn't know he had it. Neither did the TSA, who completely missed it during its scan and allowed that plane to fly. Apparently, this happens a lot.

Farid Seif, a Houston businessman, usually carries the weapon around for protection. He didn't realize he had kept the glock in his carry-on computer bag until he was mid-flight. Once he landed, he immediately reported the incident (and was stunned he was able to get it on board without hassle). That something like this happened should be scary in itself, but authorities tell ABC News says that that sort of incident isn't exactly uncommon:

Experts say every year since the September 11 attacks, federal agencies have conducted random, covert tests of airport security.
A person briefed on the latest tests tells ABC News the failure rate approaches 70 percent at some major airports. Two weeks ago, TSA's new director said every test gun, bomb part or knife got past screeners at some airports.
We put up with the TSA and their foolish methods in the name of security but if they're not keeping us secure, well shit, why do we put up with it?

Wow last week I found out a pancake could fool the body scan machine, but fuk that when all have to do is put it in your briefcase

the problem is, they assume the worst. I was in the airport when they interogated an elderly woman for having sewing needles and a bottle of water. If thats an issue then we need to reform that system and put more emphasis on actually checking the bags.

+1 for airport security! Those highschool drop outs sure know what to look for.

People working at an airport need to learn how to do their jobs. That pretty sums up all these problems.

With all this security in airports, even one slip up defeats the purpose of the entire system. Its like having a hole in a barbwire fence, it makes the whole thing poinless in a way .

Oh here we go.

-.-' First the molest a little boy, and now they are letting weapons on the planes.

Think it's time we place the TSA on America's Most Wanted. lulz.

that security guard is getting fired for that
