On: TSA Response to XKCD “Bag Check” Cartoon

[Semiapies]

Tangentially, it strikes me that a lot of people, including the TSA flack, miss the actual point of the comic. It's not that there are reasonable arguments against TSA policies. It's that trying to argue the policies with the TSA is futile and probably counter-productive.

This can be further generalized. Trying to argue a policy with a bottom rung employee at any organization is ultimately counter-productive.
