TSA: Granny Gropers, Grope Thyselves
Philip Hodges blogs at Political Outcast about TSA workers caught smuggling coke and smack at Atlanta Airport:

If you're a drug dealer, sex offender, a child molester or have some other criminal record, and you're having trouble looking for work, look no further than the TSA. They employ all sorts of people with shady backgrounds and questionable characters, to say the least. Who else would be willing to grope little kids and grandmothers and look at images of people's naked bodies on their X-ray scanners?

And it's all in the name of keeping us safe from terrorists. I'm sure that's what Richard Cook and Timothy Gregory were thinking when they got involved in a drug-smuggling business at the Atlanta airport. Cook had made a deal with some drug dealers back in January that for every kilo of heroin smuggled through security, he'd get paid $2,500. In February, Cook left the TSA and handed the reins of his drug business over to co-worker Gregory, who received $1,000 per kilo of cocaine smuggled. Little did either of them know, however, that their drug bosses were FBI agents working undercover, and the cocaine and heroin were both fake.

...This case reveals what we already knew to be true about the TSA -- that they employ moral delinquents. It also reveals that our government can engage in criminal activity with impunity as long as they get others to engage in it with them.
