| Not that TSA is too bright anyway. They patted us down and went through our carry-ons 2x and then wanted us to come back to the screening point. I was walking behind a 6'5" Tsa and he was booking up the terminal. (I am 5'0" and over 50) blonde hair hazel eyes and my husband is a swedish descent almost 60. We were going to go back through the way you come out and he had us go behind the staging area for the agents where I tripped over their antifatigue map cracking my knee and breaking a finger. they made us go through their new turning thingy 3 more times and empty pockets etc. finally they decided that there must be a problem with their new turning thingy and that the first female tsa who patted me down who did so yet again - got ice for me and kept apologizing. The supervisor said they could get an ambulance to come take me to the hospital and I told them I was planning on flying that day. In the meantime at least 30 people who should have been screened more carefully went through and the one person who had a buck knife in their carry-on was just told he would need to recover his knife once he came back. Wonderful branch of the homeland security.
