TSA Refuses to Hire Handicapped Man Born with One Hand

If you need another example of the Transportation Security Administration's coarse treatment of handicapped people, look at the case of Michael Constantino. Constantino wants to work for the TSA as a Transportation Security Officer, but the TSA will not hire him for that particular job because he is missing his right hand. The TSA never gave Constantino a chance to prove he could actually do the job, they just informed him he could not work as Transportation Security Officer. Constantino is now suing the TSA.

The TSA left open the possibility that Constantino could apply for other positions within the TSA, but they have dashed Constantino dreams of being a powerful airport overlord who gets to intimidate, humiliate, and harass innocent people all day. Michael Constantino, like all TSA applicants and employees, should be ashamed of himself for wanting to join a disgustingly abusive and incompetent crew of voyeurs, bullies, thieves, and gropers, but he wants the job, and if he can prove he can do the job, he should get it.

Really, how hard could it be to work for the TSA? How many hands does it take to rub a passenger's buttcrack and fiddle with his testicles? The TSA will probably defend themselves by explaining that it takes one-handed TSA agents twice as long to grope people, but since when has the TSA been so obsessed with speed? Given the TSA's poor record for dealing with disabled people, the TSA probably does not want to hire Michael Constantino because he will be one less handicapped guy they will get to molest.

The TSA should hire Michael Constantino and let him get right to grabbing men's junk, power-tripping with business travelers, stealing from passengers, poking old people's diapers, taking naked scans of hot girls, molesting small children, patting down babies, and inconveniencing handicapped people on their way to Disney World. For some people, this is their dream, and Michael Constantino deserves a shot at that dream like anyone else.
