You had one job, TSA, and you failed miserably at it. But we shouldn't be surprised since you miss 95% of illegal contraband when they tested your (in)capability.
WFLAU.S. (KXAN) The Transportation Security Agency is responding after a big security failure at one of Americas busiest airports.
A man says he brought a loaded gun through security at Atlantas airport and boarded a Southwest flight without anyone stopping him.
Blake Alford says he didnt know the gun was in his bag until he arrived at his destination. Alford says it was an innocent mistake, but he felt that he had to come forward.
I just want to do the right thing. I didnt want to get into trouble. I didnt want to get anybody in trouble. I guess wanted every body to realize we need to tighten up, said Alford.
In response, the TSA says its investigating the incident and will re-train employees as necessary.
On Tuesday, a replica handgun was discovered at ANOTHER busy airport.
