...why I refuse to travel by air.
TSA agent steals $200K worth of gear, resells it on eBay
Take note that the article says this guy's been doing this for a while. Yeah, I'm going to trust an agency that hires bottom feeders like this.
Another nice bit of info in the article, in case you travellers didn't know - when this kind of crap happens, the law insulates the air carriers. So, if some scumbag TSA "officer" decides to help himself to anything in your luggage, YOU CAN'T DO SHIT ABOUT IT.
Oh yeah, I feel safe in their hands. Real fucking safe.

That's why I always fly with just my carry-on. Ugh, I abhor the whole process of checking luggage anyway, and the possibility of this happening just makes it worse.
