Los Angles Transportation Security Administration agent, Dianna Perez has been charged with accepting bribes from a drug trafficker, Millage Peaks, Jr. Millage Peaks, Jr. allegedly paid $500 to Dianna Perez for each suitcase of illegal drugs she helped clear through TSA security.
Millage Peaks, Jr. was caught, headed from Los Angeles to Boston when baggage handlers noticed his suitcase smelled of marijuana. This was probably the tenth time Dianna Perez had helped Millage Peaks, Jr. get a suitcase through TSA security.
On the surface this may seem just like a harmless case of drug trafficking, but this is far more serious. What if there had been a bomb hidden in anyone of those ten suitcases and Dianna Perez had sneaked it through security thinking it was just full of drugs? Anyone should be able to see the potential danger. These corrupt TSA agents are a serious threat to the security of air traffic. What sort of degenerates is the TSA hiring anyway?

TSA Officers Took Bribes from Drug Trafficker
The fine men and women of the Transportation Security Administration should be protecting air travelers, but they are too busy committing all sorts illegal acts. The latest exposure of criminal activity at the TSA centers around a drug smuggling.
A drug trafficker was routinely transporting large amounts of black-market oxycodone and cash back and forth between Florida and the northeastern United States. To make sure things went smoothly, the trafficker bribed TSA officers Christopher Allen of Palm Beach Gardens, FL; John Best of Port St. Lucie, FL; and Brigitte Jones of The Bronx, NY to let him through security with drugs and large amounts of cash. The trafficker also had, Florida State Trooper, Justin Kolves and NYPD officer, Michael Brady, on the payroll. So far, at least twenty people have been arrested for involvement with the drug ring as part of the Drug Enforcement Administration's “Operation Blue Coast.”
If TSA agents will take bribes to let drugs through security, what else will they let through if properly bribed? For those who argue TSA agents might accept bribes to let drugs through but they would never take bribes to allow explosives through, consider this. What if a terrorist posed as a drug trafficker, gave bribes to TSA workers to let a suitcase full of drugs on a plane, and it turned out he had hidden a bomb in that suitcase?

Surgically Implanted Body Bomb Threat Should Not Be News
This big news today was the Department of Homeland Security's announcement that terrorists are considering surgically implanting bombs to evade airport security measures imposed by the United States. It is good that Homeland Security is thinking ahead and anticipating potential threats, but why are they just now waking up to this very real threat?
In 2006, Colombian smugglers were caught smuggling surgically implanted heroin inside of live puppies. If the drug smugglers thought of implanting drugs inside of animals, is it not completely logical that suicide bombers would think to implant bombs inside of their own bodies? After all, if the bomber is going to blow up himself anyway, why should we think he would have any reservations about having the bomb implanted? People routinely get breast implants, butt implants, pectoral implants, etc. just to look good. A bomb could easily be implanted and concealed with similar surgeries. If a terrorist is dedicated enough to die just for a chance to kill others, having a bomb implanted is a relatively small sacrifice to make.
Also, what is the big concern with surgically implanted bombs all of a sudden? Smugglers have been swallowing and smuggling drugs for decades. The terrorists could use the "swallow and smuggle" method as well. Of course, there are other body cavities such as rectums and vaginas that could be used to conceal bombs. Body bombs are a threat, and they have been since criminals figured out the human body is a pretty effective place to hide contraband.
Here is the alarming part. If a suicide bomber chooses to place a bomb inside of his (or her) body, the TSA's current security procedures are unlikely to detect the bomb. So, what does this mean? We will either continue along with the TSA's current methods of performing security theater to appease the public, or the TSA will become even more invasive in its searches of innocent citizens.
Right now, the TSA is just looking under our clothes. Next, they are going to want to look under our skin. Do not be surprised if, in the near future, the TSA wants to X-ray people before each flight. Sure, that will involve very unhealthy doses of radiation, but we will not have to worry about it long, because the TSA will convince us they came up with a way to make the radiation safe. If that sounds hard to believe, just look at all of the airline passengers marching through those radiation-based full-body scanners. A logical person would assume all of those repeated exposures to radiation might pose some considerable health risks, but the TSA tells us there is no reason to worry, and most of us believe them.
