TSA and the counter-terrorism mission creep

Mission creep is when a they say that the TSA was created as a ‘counter-terror’ organization, but then it evolves into an unruly force aimed at the people it was supposedly created to protect.

The pilot program of undercover TSA agents on Houston METRO buses was not related to any specific terror threat. It had NOTHING to do with terrorism whatsoever.

The TSA has fewer rules to follow than a domestic police force does, specifically because it wasn’t being sold to us as a new domestic police force. And yet, here we are.

If you know anyone that still thinks the TSA is a ‘counter-terrorism’ organization, please see to it that this story reaches them.
