Excellent story by a former TSA worker out of O'Hare: called
Dear America, I Saw You Naked And yes, we were laughing. Confessions of an ex-TSA agent.

Sorry, the story isn't believable. First amendment right, seriously?

I didn't read the whole thing. But when he claimed he had a first amendment right to trash talk his employer I doubted. As do I doubt his claim that most TSA employees are violating the public trust.
That was enough to set off the BS meter.

I can see a public employee claiming a 1st Amendment right after writing to a newspaper. Whether it applies or not is another matter.
The story does seem contrived, the alcohol and Marines story as an example- or just extremely cherry-picked. A TSA skeptic took a job with TSA to get dirt. But I have been close enough with TSA and CBP agents to have a pretty good idea that in general this stuff goes on. As with anything you have good employees, mediocre employees, and down right bad / toxic employees.
The US has way too many flights to use the Israeli behavior profile method. But what you see when you board a flight in the US (and Europe) is the magician's right hand; it is there to distract you from what is going on with the left hand.
