TSA stands for "Transportation Security Administration" or "Thugs Standing Around"; they are federal employees tasked with going on power trips and harassing passengers. Whenever they fail and a terrorist attack is attempted (cf. the crotch bomber), they are given more powers to badger air passengers, steal items out of checked luggage, force grandmothers to take off their orthopedic shoes for bomb screening, or perform various other demeaning procedures in the name of security, while none of it actually makes us any safer.
Poor Dave, he made a joke in the airport about terrorists and the TSA goons cavity searched him.
