    Guy bypasses security and shuts the place down. People are even called back out of the terminal to be re-screened. I bet there's a thousand pissed off people in there.

    I'm not usually the claustrophobic type, but being in the middle of that morass would change that.

    Damned Nigerians.

    Janet Napolitano is busily preparing her next "the system worked" speech for when the guy is found/apprehended/killed/whatever.

    The TSA has got to be the least competent agency. Ever.

    An agency staffed by power-tripping GED holders? Nawwwwww!

    Hate to paint with a broad brush there, but TSA is the favorite agency of very few.

    Have the Nigerians given up spam as a tool of terror?

    Nothing will change until we all stop dutifully standing in those stupid lines with our Glad bags.

    I recall this happening a few years ago at O'Hare because some douchebag jumped a line because he was late for a flight. Clusterfuck doesn't begin to describe it. I think he made the flight though, because I don't recall anyone finding him.

    **Note to self in case late for a flight: shut down the whole airport.

    Could this be Conan O'Brien's final revenge?
