Dick Move, TSA
(R.I.P. Rand’s laptop):
Boy, did he. As I noted before, once you opt-out, or are selected for
additional screening, you can’t touch your own possessions. TSA has to move them. Rand
offered to help with his stuff, because there was a lot of it, but the agent insisted he
could carry it all. He couldn’t. He dropped Rand’s laptop, cracking the plastic
case,
knocking off keys, and irreparably damaging the screen and it.

If you knew you had the time to waste, it would be time to call the police and file charges for destruction of property. It might get you on the "no-fly" list as well.
We will not edit your comments. However, we may delete your
comments, or cause them to be hidden behind another link, if we feel
they detract from the conversation. Commercial plugs are fine,
if they are relevant to the conversation, and if you don't
try to pretend to be a consumer. Annoying endorsements will be deleted
if you're lucky, if you're not a whole bunch of people smarter and
more articulate than you will ridicule you, and we will leave
such ridicule in place.
