Fuck the TSA, but the people who work there because it is a paying job deserve stable employment like the rest of us. They don't make the decisions.
Does this goes for the police as well?
When they have enough oversight that the "thin blue line" is no longer a thing.
Everyone should know the Chris Dorner story.
Depends how responsible you think the system is for their behavior and if you feel people deserve a second chance.
I think ACAB, but I believe their bad behavior is mostly due to systemic pressures.
But most of the time you can choose your job... Of course working for the TSA might be more comfortable, but what you do with your life is not usually forced.
Yes, you can choose your job, but it is a pretty big pain in the butt to do so. I don't feel like the "you can just get a better job" argument is a strong one in general.
