If there ever was proof the TSA is a clown show security theater it's in this bin. Too bad it's never going away because the average citizen simply doesn't care and no administration wants to be responsible for making a bunch of poorly educated government employees lose their jobs.

May of what? "May have" and not "may of".

The liquids are not allowed because they mess with explosive detectors. Not because anyone thinks they are dangerous.

It's not "we don't allow liquids cause they may be explosive". It's "we don't allow liquids cause if you have any in your luggage, we won't be able to correctly detect explosives you might also have".

That's why some airports now allow liquids. Newer scanners can detect explosives even in luggages that also contain liquids.

Nobody thinks your bottle of water is dangerous. But your bottle of water will prevent the explosives detector from working.

Presumably the liquid explosives aren't going to explode when diluted with loads of water and energy drink

But if that's before the checks then you'd get that far just having a bomb under your jacket anyway. The liquid thing is to prevent you from blowing up planes and shit that comes after the check

"Bomb juice"

I feel like their job is to stop people from blowing up terminals and planes. They literally can’t stop terrorism on the public side of the gate. They have no means.
